So lame we didn't get a true home and home with Wisconsin. Their fans were fun as frick in Green Bay. Wish I could have experienced Madison instead.

In 100 degree heat that feels like 110? Sounds awesome.

You know how many CFB fans will have eyes in LSU Sunday? Great PR move.

I'm not talking about the non conf rent a wins
I want a marquee home game

Pay the money that LSU is getting for these nonconference neutral site games, then maybe you'll have a chance. There is a lot of risk playing a good team week one. If schools weren't getting paid a ton of money for these week 1 matchups, no one would have them.

Then you’re but talking about opening the year at home. You’re talking about two different things.

We opened vs ga Southern in 2019
2020 was supposed to be UTSA then UT
Can't control 2015 weather

We opened with North Texas
I get it, having an Oregon State, Washington, or Arizona at home to start the season was fun, but sometimes you get an opener like Virginia Tech on the road and get your teeth kicked in. I actually like the big time neutral site games, especially if it's in a dome. It's frickin hot on Labor Day weekend in BR. The big neutral site kickoff games do wonders for exposure for the program and in recruiting. It also gives some of our guys experience in these big stadiums where we might have a future playoff/bowl game. I'd rather play a big time school in a neutral site than open up with a North Texas or McNeese at home.

That would have been awesome, I wish this FSU series would have been a home and home also.

You get those games all season long in the SEC who cares if it’s the first game of the year vs a top team at home. I rather not play any top teams to kick off the season just to say we did.

Nicholas is a retard. I thought his dumb takes were limited to baseball but here we are.

Follow the money.
These neutral site games make way more money than a home game.
