Exactly. Those games are expensive and for the avg family, they aren't going. They get stuck with Furman. Don't like it.

So is that 6 out of 7 years LSU opens up not at home.

I like it. Big OOC win sets the tone for the rest of the season.

Personally, I would rather home and homes. I enjoy the electric atmosphere in Tiger Stadium for exotic, premium OCC match-ups (i.e VT), and I similarly enjoy traveling to college campuses outside the SEC.

Apparently, playing OOC games at NFL stadiums is the new thing. I don't think it's going away anytime soon.

Id rather Dallas though.

I doubt games like that will happen anymore. Is it even possible to convince teams like Texas, USC, Michigan, etc to come to TS?

Marquee OCC game in Neutral site can make $$$ for a team an give increased exposure. This game would allow Houston Tiger fans who maybe can't make it to many home games see a game in their backyard.

I agree, but these "neutral" site games are still pretty cool. I'd love to see a game in Madison and host a bunch of Wisky fans in BR.

What about the fans who lay for season tickets ever year and then, sorry, we're going to Houston.
