In fact, LSU plans to hold a season-opening game in the New Orleans Superdome in the next “4-6 years,” Ausberry told The Advocate earlier this month. Nothing is finalized, he said, but discussions are on-going.
“We’d like to play a Power 5 in New Orleans, the right opponent,” said Ausberry, who works with athletic director Joe Alleva in creating LSU’s football schedules. “We target four cities: New Orleans, Atlanta, Dallas and Houston.”

“It could be New Orleans and play somewhere else, like Chicago at Soldier Field or Jacksonville,” Ausberry said. “We love that model.”
