I agree with your message but neutral site games are money makers and grow the brand. That’s what they care about.

How does having a game in Houston, Dallas, or Atlanta really grow the brand of LSU?

All of those areas are already very familiar with LSU.

A game at Lambeau or on the west coast or northeast, okay I could see the argument, but the irony is that LSU wont schedule something so far because it would be hard to get Louisiana people to travel to it (Lambeau was unique).

So they say they want to grow the brand but depend on Louisiana citizens for the ticket sales to these neutral site games.

If we're playing a good out-of-conference power 5 team at home at night in primetime, everybody will watch. That's enough to "grow the brand"

Yeah thank God we can finally let people in New Orleans know what we're about

Would we not also be "growing the brand" if we just played in Tallahassee? Let's just call a spade a spade and admit that this is 100% a money grab. Alleva can kick rocks. Lambeau was great. If we want "unique" neutral sites, let's pair up with places that we don't regularly end up in bowl games. As another poster said, pretty safe to say that Houston, Dallas, and Atlanta have a pretty good idea of who we are. Screw the neutrals.
