I'd rather do away with neutral site regular season games, or at least not every damn year. But if we HAVE to have neutral site games, I'd rather them be in Houston than NOLA. At least there's a recruiting advantage to playing in Houston. LSU doesn't need any help recruiting in NOLA.

I just made my once a year gripe to TAF. I am sure it went right up the flagpole. With that being said New Orleans would be better than Dallas. Drives me crazy we don't schedule good games for Tiger Stadium anymore.

Or it sucks you only have six freaking home games, only 3 being sec teams. And the fees for tickets stay the same.
Having to play 6 road games also makes your road to the play offs a little tougher.

Tired of neutral site games. The first ones we did in Atlanta and Dallas were cool at the time. Lambeau field looked amazing, but doing it every year against a team that should come to Baton Rouge (or we go to their campus) is pathetic.

quote:Can someone explain how this thought still holds water? It made sense before television carried every game. But now that it does, Houston area recruits will see LSU play regardless. I dont think it makes a material difference having the game in Houston
least there's a recruiting advantage to playing in Houston.

Gives the local HS recruits a chance to see LSU play in person without using one of their official visits.

This argument holds as much water as "LSU wears alternate jerseys because recruits love them" all while Alabama gets any player they want while wearing the same jerseys every single game.

They will be standing on the sidelines in Houston.

I really dont see the gains in recruiting. I think it made sense years ago when tv exposure was limited, now, it is all about money
Also, they wont be on the sidelines....

"Rules prohibit schools from providing complimentary tickets to prospective student-athletes unless the school plays two or more of their games at that site," said Georgia defensive line coach and recruiting coordinator Rodney Garner. "Therefore, no recruiting can take place for either school during this type of game."

Excited about the home/home with Texas in 19/20... Would bet money the game gets played only one time in either Dallas or Houston though. Hope I'm wrong.

What are the odds that 1,2 or ALL 3 of the upcoming home/homes vs. UCLA,TX,OK, will be morphed into money grab,neutral site rip offs ?

If Soldier Field after New Orleans I would guess someone like Notre Dame would be at top of that list or some Big 10 team.
If Jacksonville after New Orleans I would guess ACC opponent. Fla St would be nice.

would def be down for that. i'm totally cool with losing a home game if we go to one of these places to play a big-name school. fricking playing BYU in houston is about as shitty as it gets IMO.
