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"

I don't know if this true, the Lambeau game drew a huge amount of fans and there was a HEAVY presence when we went to Washington. The uniqueness of the trip matters. Neutral site game in the Rose Bowl? Oh I'm there. BYU in Houston? No thanks.
