the more/better OOC games, the better...no matter where they are.

i'd bet the LSU admins negotiated to get much more money than they'd usually get for a game like this.

I agree, which is why I don't care about losing home games as long as we're playing good teams, especially for games like this. Labor day weekend is the perfect weekend for a college football road trip

Right. I tend to agree. However, I'm not sure this really accomplishes that aim. Under the old arrangement, assuming there was a home and home, we got two decent OOC games against TCU. Now, we get one and a future game against an opponent to be named. If that opponent is a cupcake, we've actually lost a good OOC game in the aggregate.

Playing TCU in Dallas next season instead of Tiger Stadium is a minor development overall. I'm neither really excited about it nor really disappointed. It should be a boring blowout in either case.
