Yeah right. I'm going to pass on 'Bama's NIL deal and sign with LSU because they're going to Dublin for 2 or 3 days.

Some of you people will believe anything.

Bhí sin iontach maith!

Ba mhaith liom LSU a fheiceáil ag imirt i mBaile Átha Cliath. Bhí na CFB cluichí eile anseo iontach maith.

This would be great for the brand. Even better if this isn't a one off and we make an international game a thing every other year. Would this be a possibility for next season if the teams agreed?

I agree with the general sentiment that neutral site games suck, but Ireland would be awesome. Not like we are talking about doing Houston for the 50th time

Yes I could visit Ireland all the time, but would be cool to say you saw LSU in Ireland one day. Tack it onto the end of a euro trip. Some of yall need to live a little

College football games should be played on college campuses.

Florida State and Georgia Tech are playing in the game next month. Kansas State and Iowa State will play in August 2025. So 2026 is the earliest that LSU could come over here.

Since 2012 we've had
ND v Navy (twice)
Penn State v UCF
Boston College v Georgia Tech
Nebraska v Northwestern

So between those games and the two scheduled, the ACC, Big Ten and Big 12 have all been represented. The SEC is the final piece in the jigsaw and would be a big draw for fans over here.

Nike is the clear winner.

Don't really know that it's any better than a domestic neutral site game. Is it cool to think about? Sure, but I'd rather another home game 10000000000000000000000x more than a game in ireland.

I've been to Ireland and it is wonderful. Can't wait to go back.

That being said the last thing I want to see in a European city is LSU fans. I go to Europe to see something new, not overweight coonasses in gold PFG shirts.

If lsu does play in Ireland 2028 makes sense since they don’t have any non conference opponents schedule

2028 teams available to play in Ireland:
Notre Dame
Michigan

I've been to Dublin and it was very interesting. Lots to see, and I didn't appreciate that the crazy arse Gaelic language was still a real thing, with street signs and cable channels and the whole bit.

I was there in May, it was cold AF.
