Look I understand we aren't moving away from neutral site games. But I'm tried of play what's consider our part of the neutral site games in fricking Texas.

Just do a home and home insted of neutral site games


You know you have to find schools willing to do it, right? A lot of other schools prefer the neutral site games as well for financial reasons among others. It just isn't as easy as yall think it is.

If have to look, but could be a playoff game that year. I also don't think peeps will bitch if we win the sec then have to turn around and play in Atlanta again for the playoffs.

This is a slap in the face to season ticket holders. We pump all this money in each year for this garbage. At least do a home and home with them. This neutral site crap has to go. Im tired of Monroe, Sam Houston State, Idaho, Western Kentucky etc. Its becoming to where it isn't worth paying the $$$ to be in Tiger Stadium anymore. Any key matchups outside the SEC are played elsewhere now.

and this is a slap in the face to our program and history.

while yes this game was not anything special it has become a recurring problem in almost every game(insert traffic and crappy game excuse)...I dont fault the AD or anyone else for scheduling big matchups where ever they feel people may stay for 4 qtrs, not boo the team or their players, in order to have a great game day atmosphere to keep recruiting at a high level.

LSU needs big games and needs to be playing on national television during primetime not the SEC network to keep up in the SEC arms race.

All you people whining about losing 1 game...who cares there is more than a couple good match ups with SEC play alone. Make the trip or watch it at home and save some money...crazy I know.

Good to see . I love this being the first game and planning the trip to Big D . Much better than a tomato can at home in the sweat bath that is TS in August.

I've attended every away game since 2010. I will not be attending this one. I'm tired of this neutral site BS. As a season ticket holder, I want a home and home. I've already been to Dallas 3 frickin times since 2010. MAKE IT STOP.

Nobody wants to see LSU play Sam Houston State. That's what the turnout will be when you play a pitiful opponent. College Football is big business now and LSU has bought in. We continue to schedule these far inferior opponents year in and year out.

Unfortunately, they have priced a lot of the true fans out of the game in lieu of corporations. This is the problem with the early exiting of the Stadium. A lot of people attending games now could care less about what's actually happening on the field. It's a freaking social event.

We have become a spoiled fanbase after our two championships. But the quality of games we actually get to attend at Tiger Stadium now has diminished as well.

I'd honestly rather lose 1 more game per year than see any more of these neutral site games.

Lets be honest here. How many weekends in September when everyone is playing these cupcakes do you really enjoy the Saturday of College football?

Leave the DII teams out of D1 football and lets see teams actually play each other like back in the day. Rather than try and schedule the weakest opponent possible and pay them a fortune to come over and get skulldrug

I apologize for liking to spend time in Tiger Stadium or on the lovely campus of the opposing school. There's a reason I'm at a college game and not watching a NFL game.
