Home and Homes will always be better than neutral site. Nothing like a big competitor coming to Tiger Stadium

I think most understand the reasons why. But it doesn't make a season ticketholder feel any better when they are shelling out big money for a crappy home slate.

I'd probably be complaining too if I still had my season tickets.

I don't give a shite. The community loses a shite load of money when you had gone from playing 8 games on the reg to 6-7 now. No way to spin it.

And recruiting? Please, Les had co had no issues grabbing top players out of Texas well before they played a nuetral site game in Dallas or Houston. Plus, LSU is on TV. They get exposure. LSU has pulled recruits from the Carolinas, Cali, New Jersey, Tennessee, Michigan, Ohio, Oklahoma, Nebraska. They didn't need nuetral site games to do that. They just needed Les and Frank tag teaming.

I mean...SEC teams only come to Baton Rouge because they have to. They would never choose to go there.

Half empty stadium in the 3rd quarter will get you more neutral site games.

I have no problem doing this every few years, but the admin is really telling local businesses frick you. I get it though since it's a guaranteed $4m for just showing up. I don't mind Houston, but games in Arlington just suck bc it's in middle of absolutely nothing.
