I am....concerned....about the persistent rumors that LSU's season opening game at the Rose Bowl next year may be moved to Vegas. I may....not react well to an announcement about this this afternoon.

I assume this guy has a source but has anyone else heard this? Would be cool to go to Vegas but I really wanted to go to the Rose Bowl.

That stadium is sick though.

Gosh, LSU fans in Vegas. What a week that would be.

ETA: I would be upset because I’ve had the Rose Bowl UCLA game marked for a while as one I wanted to go to for sure. But this would be an interesting consolation prize.

Man that would be a bummer. I’ve always wanted to see the tigers play in the rose bowl.

Have y’all been to the Rose Bowl? It’s a piece of shite.

I wouldn't be mad at this. Imagine a Tiger Takeover in Vegas

I was planning to do the Napa Valley/Pacific Coast Highway thing, but count me in for Vegas. We had to cancel our plans for the Saints-Raiders game last September. We can go to California another time.

While Vegas would be fantastic, what is concerning about this is that they call it good with a one off neutral site game and scrap the home game with UCLA in 2024. Then that gets replaced with Towson.

Its cool, but frick I want these games played in college stadiums rather than neutral sites.

Just like wanting to play in Camp Randall instead of Lambeau.

Ideally I'd like both, but playing these teams is a once in a 30 year or more thing.

I'd be more inclined to go if they moved it

You do realize that the atmosphere for a UCLA home game in the Rose Bowl Stadium is completely different than the actual Rose Bowl game don’t you?

You can forget about it being at the Rose Bowl. I just dont see it happening with how cali has treated this whole pandemic

I've driven by the Rose Bowl so I'm good, but I was looking forward to that trip.

If we go to Vegas, I'm perfectly fine with an LSU takeover of the Strip.

Looks like LSU will never play in the Rose Bowl

Talk about polar opposites as far as pre-game settings go! I guess I will be trading my Lail 2017 Blueprint Cabernet Sauvignon for a Witch Doctor from VooDoo... hope I remember the game

They’ve GOT to get that game OUT of California.

LSU should refuse to play the game if it isn’t moved.
