Anybody who would rather watch Troy at LSU instead of Tampa Bay at New Orleans just doesn't really know much about football...

I feel pretty neutral as well - I am a season ticket holder to both LSU and the Saints (and the Hornets), I'm an LSU alum, I live in New Orleans now, and I split my LSU/Saints/Hornets affection 33/33/33% each.

If it was a foregone conclusion that LSU would destroy Troy, and we didn't have so many question marks this year, I would answer Saints, but LSU is an unknown this year, so there is still intrigue against these OOC teams.

Are you kidding me? If you gave ME the choice of attending one or the other, it would be an easy choice of LSU. My allegiances to LSU are much stronger than with the Saints (grew up near campus, entire family went there, have multiple degrees from LSU, etc.). With the tv schedules these days, you maybe get the chance to spend 4-5 nights in Tiger Stadium per year. I'm sorry, I'm not going to pass on that opportunity to watch game one of an NFL season. It has nothing do with your knowledge of football, but where your heart lies. My LSU football weekend starts on Friday night while dining with family and friends, all day tailgating with friends and family then watching LSU play, and ends with lunch on Sunday with family and friends watching the Saints play.
