Tulane just wants to play

La Tech is the only Louisiana school we should play - end of discussion

playing Tulane helps Tulane a loooooooooooooooot more than LSU

Tulane either needs to agree to a 4-1 series or just eliminate the game.

It needs to be a home game for us every year. We need all the money we can get to keep ticket prices down.

It is NOT the responsibility of LSU to fund toolame's football team. If the azzholes cannot raise enough money to support their pathetic excuse for an "athletic program" fuk 'em.

I read in the TimesPic that 2,500 tickets were electronically swiped. That is horrible - they need to put some meat in the seats!! Quit worrying about the TIGERS.

I like the series because of the longevity but they are not competitive so...

Time to stop subsidizing The Slime athletic program with LSU money. Just let em dry up and blow away, which will probably happen soon without all the Tiger bucks keeping them afloat.

Face it, Bertman has done a lot of good things for LSU, but the Tulane football series was not one of them. Realistically LSU should've looked for a game against another BCS school in New Orleans and that might've worked but then LSU would want that game on campus!

On paper, it was a good deal. LSU got the revenue for 40,000 tickers. Even though it was an "away" game, it was close enough location to keep the home field advantage. So, it made more money than a true away game and yet had the atmosphere of home game.

It has turned out less than predicted. The Dome just shallows up the 50k+ LSU fans and the few Tulane fans that show. It is never a packed house since Tulane sells so few tickets.

Tulane needs to move to a stadium closer to campus to reconnect with the student body and to encourage a tail-gating/alumni feel. The Superdome does nothing for Tulane except to make them look really bad on national TV.

Plus, doesn't the state pick up the tab for all of Tulane's expenses each time it plays at the Dome? I seriously doubt Tulane is paying the full bill to keep the lights on at the Dome along with all the support personal.

That's how I feel about Tulane. Screw them.

We had the same situation with the same team this year. Bama was to open in the Superdome but got invited to ATL instead.
We had to pay TU a certain amount close to whatever they deemed fair and find them an opponent I do believe. They could have kept us from playing VT but said if we do this and that we could move on.
