BYU in Houston
Miami in Arlington
Texas in Austin
Rice in Houston
UCLA at Rose Bowl

Can we get a home game in Tiger Stadium!

Well 2 of those aren't neutral site. If Rice is at home it's 3 road games. Either way it's in Their home city.

well, this past weekend was glorious for college football in general. Some great games. I actually think they are here to stay, with more being scheduled Labor Day weekend.

Unfortunately, home and home's are really tough to book these days. Especially when one of the homes is tiger stadium (i.e. Nationally ranked #1 hardest place to play)

Last I checked, University of Texas was in Austin and Rice was in Houston. And I thought UCLA played in the Rose Bowl.

That's why they came out and said they're working on some Superdome games

It's not Death Valley but still consider that a home game

1/9 was no home game.


Neutral site games are the antithesis of what college football is all about. Imagine a home-and-home with Wisconsin, imagine how much fun it'd be to visit the People's Republic of Madison and have those guys come down here to party with us on a Fall Saturday in Baton Rouge.

It's a fricking shame.

I like the neutral site games but would definitely prefer a home and home. I don't like playing a neutral site game in Houston against BYU and Rice. These are teams we should be playing at home. LSU is on national TV every week, I really don't think playing one game in Houston really helps recruiting all that much.
