re: Would you have rathered Texas Bowl?

Of the cities you mentioned, only Atlanta has an LSU alumni population even remotely close to what we have in Houston.

I mentioned 3 cities. Combined I am sure we will have a solid turn out. Nashville is in a very central location for the Southeast, unlike anything in Texas.

I hope that you're right. I could've made it to the Texas Bowl, but I'm not going to spend money on airfare/hotel to travel to Nashville. It's a great destination city, but the timing of the bowl and the cost keep it from being an option for me, as I think it will for many other Tiger fans.

Sorry you can't make it. I don't think most people will have the same issue and a lot of people look for a reason to visit Nashville for the reason you said.

Nationally, this is a much better game for LSU's program because of the opponent.


ETA:

Can also add Jackson, MS to that. Its only 5.5 hours away from Nashville. Not to mention its drivable for Tiger fans in Chicago and other areas up North.
