on 6/30/22 at 2:55 pm to TI wish they would just get rid of all neutral site games unless its a rivaly game. Home & Home only. Its stupid that we're playing FSU in NOLA & Orlando.

These were set up initially to help in recruiting. Saban was a big proponent of these when he was here. I don’t see the benefits anymore. I think The home game is more important

Did we ever play in one of these prior to 2010 North Carolina?

I don’t think so but he pushed for it while he was here and again when he got to Bama. I’ll have to find the article that referenced the start of neutral site games and the push for the extra game.
I understood at the time it was good but I think home and home are better for the fan base

on 6/30/22 at 3:11 pm to TThat'd be a bunch of horse shite if we lost out on games against Texans and UCLA at home

on 6/30/22 at 3:44 pm to TI am looking forward to the game in Vegas. Hopefully they will keep it. They should. Both teams are being paid very well by the TV networks.

The earliest recollection of one of these games was UNC in 2010 and Saban was already in year 4 at Bama. There were home/homes scheduled under Saban, but neutral site games didn’t start getting scheduled until Miles.

You would think LSU would stop getting bent over by these deals but no.

Honestly, I kinda like that a September game is going to be in A/C

Agreed! With how much sports are televised these days you don’t have to physically be in a recruits city/area for them to be aware of your program. Getting them to campus and experiencing the actual culture they’ll potentially be in is way more important

on 6/30/22 at 11:46 pm to TI wouldn’t either if you stole my best pitcher.

He pushed for playing big OOC games but not neutral site specifically
