What a bunch of frickin whiners .... LSU Gets to play at Lambeau field. Are you kidding me? What an opportunity for something different. I don't remember watching a college game at Lambeau ever.

There probably is more LSU grads living in Houston metro than in BR.



This^^^

It doesn't hurt recruiting in Texas, but I am betting it is more about the number of LSU grads in the Houston area and the $ they give back to LSU. I meet as many or more LSU alums as Aggies here, and way more than Longhorn fans.

They are not giving more than the TAF and Tradition Fund contributions from season ticket holders in BR, NOLA, etc.

10-1 you are not a (non student) season ticket holder who pays for his own tickets

Let's spend $20 million building and updating a new stadium and then reward the fans who have helped pay for it by having games in Texas. Yaaay, great decision!


THIS!! All the fans, once again, will just bend over and take it....

I promise you it won't be as awesome as you think it will be. Green Bay is a nothing town and the stadium is small.

@RabalaisAdv: Joe Alleva says #LSU to play #Wisconsin at Lambeau Field to open 2016 season. 2014 game in Houston.

@RabalaisAdv: It's the first time Alleva has been able to give a definitive date (2016) on the game at Lambeau Field. Contract to be inked next week.#LSU


This is absolute bullshite. So we have to drive to texas for our "home" part of the neutral site game. While they only have to waddle through the snow to get to Lambeau??

If I'm a fan of another school, then I'm watching the game on tv because it's LSU - Wisconsin...not because it's in Reliant or Lambeau Field. The argument for where the game is played drawing more viewers is stupid. This should be a home and home.

I said it was exciting because I like going to these games. Reliant is a new place to go and so is Lambeau. It would have been huge to open the expansion next year with a big home opener, but Ill trade that for these two trips. I get that some people lean the other way in the trade-offs these neutral site games bring.

Don't give a shite about the Houston game, but I am going to make a motorcycle trip out of Lambeau. That's pretty badass.
