It's pretty stupid LSU plays Wisconsin in Houston but they get LSU in their home state.

Also the idea of playing games in Texas to help with recruiting is extremely over stated. It isn't 1960 anymore where the only way to watch a school was in person. Almost every LSU game is broadcast across the country. LSU's recruiting power was already as strong as it's ever been in east Texas before LSU started playing games in Arlington. And now Houston.

Meh.

Madison to Green Bay is about 2 1/2 hours.

BR to Houston is 4.

Stupid is anyone who thinks this is stupid! LSU is very savvy about scheduling those kickoff games to get maximum exposure for their brand. If you notice, LSU usually plays in areas they want to recruit, but in which they don't get enough exposure. Very smart!
