OK, you BR folks only have 270M +/_ and maybe $40 gas each way so definitely cheaper to drive! Also, driving from Bush to the game area will take as long as flying from NO LOL, I recall from my last trip over there!

When I need to get to Baton Rouge (from Houston) I almost always drive. When you factor-in the drive to IAH, parking, shuttle, the extra hour of airport wait-time, flying to BR saves you all of ~45 minutes vs. driving to BR.

When I need to get to New Orleans, I usually fly. Although, I have also driven, taken a bus, taken a train, bummed a ride on Craigslist - I should take a boat to run the gamut. But flying is far better than the 5h30m drive

Also, driving from IAH to Reliant is 32 minutes. MSY-IAH is ~1h10m (gate-to-gate)

Definitely agree the flight is much better way to go.
Went to concert at Woodlands last year renting car from Hobby took me several hours with traffic! Don't know if like this every day going that way but was a real buzz killer LOL!

This if you're leaving from Baton Rouge it would hardly save you any time and it be a lot cheaper.
