It would suck to travel all the way to Michigan, then not play in the Big House.

LSU vs Colorado would be cool then a return trip to Denver


or, and hear me out, we could just do a home and home since Nola and Denver are similar distances from both campuses. shite we’re going to salt lake year after next. if 5 mil is our “prize” from neutral site games within a stones throw of our own stadium, then we’ve already lost the plot

Would love to get an LSU-Michigan matchup in the Dome and then at Ford Field.


You're trolling with this.

Would you like to see LSU play a kickoff game in the Dome or not?

On top of that... the neutral site games are priced at roughly 2x the cost of home games, add hotel/trip costs to the southern city you're most likely to be assaulted/robbed/car-jacked in !

I don’t get up in arms about the neutral site games because I know they aren’t going anywhere, but there are some home and homes I would like to see vs Neutral site games.

Few years ago they had to move the BYU game to the Dome, I’m good with that.

Would be cool but I’d like to see some more creativity in the logo department:

I wouldn't mind an annual Louisiana Classic game. I think it would lock up Nola recruiting. Also I don't like neutral site regular season games.

Yeah - this is so obvious, I just cannot understand why it is even attractive - except for maybe some no-name team wanting a big one-time payday

Maybe, but fans rank behind revenue and TV partners in 2022.

Give me a true Home & Home instead of neutral site.

If they want to do a neutral site every 4-6 years that’s fine. But keep it in Louisiana instead of Houston, Dallas, or Atlanta.

If lsu plays in Louisiana it needs to be in tiger stadium. Don’t care about Nola revenue

With the new NIL stuff I don’t see why we have to forfeit a home game go to New Orleans/Dallas/Houston anymore. it’s not like it’s that important to cater to recruiting hotbed areas anymore- it’s all about the dollar now.

Hundley said this game only works for the Sugar Bowl (who’s running the game) if LSU is in it. There won’t be another Allstate Louisiana Kickoff game with other teams. So you’re probably looking at 2028 for the next game in the dome.

Recruiting. This is the only way we can recruit in NOLA.

Or something.
