This will get pushed back a few times, then LSU will end up playing a neutral site game with a random opponent.


Why wouldn't they? Nobody shows up for home games

I went to Beaver Stadium to see Alabama play Penn State in 1984. It is in the middle of nowhere. The Gumps won 6-0 and left those Nitany Lion asses redder than could Jerry Sandusky in a dark locker room shower.

Their tailgating is OK but their women are not anything like what we have in the South. Still well worth the trip.

Hope the players watch their backs in those showers. Of this happens, bring your own booze. State run liquor/beer in PA is a joke.

Love to see a game in Meadowlands and return trip Superdome or Houston or even Dallas


Screw all these neutral site games at pro-stadiums. I understand that the financial incentive for schools to agree to these games is large, so I don't fault them for doing so. As a college football fan however, I have no desire to watch a CFB game in the canned atmosphere of Met Life Stadium, or Reliant, or the Superdome, etc., etc. College football is meant to be played on or near the schools' campuses. The atmosphere is a 1000X better. Hell, one of the best compliments people give to places like Lambeau Field or Arrowhead Stadium is that they have "college-like atmosphere." Give me a home and home in Madison, Happy Valley, Ann Arbor anyday over a one-time matchup in Dallas or Houston.

Absofrickinglutely.

I will never understand how some people around here have been brainwashed into WANTING these horseshite neutral site games. If you don't want Saturday Night in Death Valley, you're not a Tiger.

Makes sense. By then no fans will be attending football games and TS will be demolished to make room for quidditch arena


I was thinking torn down to expand the PMAC to ten times it's size, but quidditch is cool too.

I live near the Meadowlands so that's fine with me. I can see though 100K in State College and Tiger Stadium for more bucks.

The reason why they play these neutral site games is because they make a grip off of it. Wiscy has been reported to make 3 mill from the Pack just to play at the stadium.

Wisconsin followed by Oklahoma followed by Penn State wouldn't be a bad 6 year stretch of road games at all. I wish we were playing Wisonsin in BR/Madison, but I will be in Happy Valley for sure if this happens.

I guess it would be an adults only trip. Leave all your little ones at home

Now why would we play a rent-a-win team at their stadium?

They will back out when they see Dylan Moses...knocking off helmets and picking up fumbles with one hand.
