its very impressive. i like how we schdule. i like how we are different from the rest of the SEC and we play pac12 teams, go to the west coast, play neutral site opening games (i know bama has done this too, so good for them as well)

I think she schedule sets up very nicely. Honestly I think our hardest game all next year will be our first one against Oregon, maybe Florida next but we have them at home.

Kentucky, Tennessee, and Ole Miss I see being our easiest games.

I think Auburn, Arkansas, and maybe even Miss st. might be middle of the road.

I think at W Virginia will be tough but not impossible. And going to Bama is never easy.

If we get past Oregon, we're going to have one of the best resumes in terms of SOS in the country.

I'm just hoping this year will send a lot of momentum into next year where there's huge potential to win it all.

This schedule sucks cause we only get 6 home games next year. 6 away games. To me that is bullshite. Would not be surprised if LSU keeps the prices the same as 7 home games. We should never have that many away games. Not a fan of this neutral site shite. Do a home and home. just my .02

I like this schedule. For the first time in many years, we don't have 3 home games in a row. Man that wears me out.

Damn, reminds me... I need to see about getting tickets to Oregon in Dallas.

The neutral site games at the beginning of the season make tons of money and are tools for national exposure.

Oregon v. LSU will be the premiere game of the opening weekend. ESPN will be on site and sports journalist will be talking about the game for three weeks prior to kickoff.

I hear ya on three home games in a row but only 6 home games in a 12 game season? we only have 1 home game in Sept. Only good thing is that leaves he hot games out next year.

I agree it sucks losing a home game but the neutral site games are great exposure for LSU. And they are always fun as hell to go to

So we have a brutal schedule next year. How many are going to call for Miles to be fired if we lose 3 games ?

We might play the #1 team in the country twice that year with Oregon and Bama
