Why not both


See my earlier post about the difficulties associated with scheduling home and homes

Bud Elliott/Tomahawk Nation is legit, I’ll buy it.

Orlando will keep getting for these games (like the Ole Miss-FSU game a couple years ago) since Florida Citrus sports needs to push for their investment in massively renovating the Citrus Bowl to be worthwhile. Wouldn’t be surprised to see a UF neutral site game anounced for there soon.

We're playing Miami there next year.

Figures, probably more in the future for each big 3 state of Florida program as well

Logistics and politics play a huge part in P5 home and home scheduling


Texas seems to know how to deal with it. They've had the following home and homes since 2010:

UCLA
Ole Miss
BYU
Notre Dame & Cal in the same two seasons
Maryland & USC in the same two seasons

After this season:

LSU in 2019 and 20
Arkansas 2021 (back end of a series started in 2008)
Alabama in 2022 and 23
Michigan in 2024 and 27
Ohio St in 2025 and 26

Texas has been the most consistently valuable CFB program for a long time and might even be #1 right now despite some awful recent seasons. Not at all fair to compare them to nearly any other program in terms of ability to pull off marquee OoC scheduling.

Texas was just an example. Ohio St since 2010

Miami
Cal
Va Tech
Oklahoma

Meanwhile LSU and Alabama have played one Power 5 home and home each since that time.

I'll take it too. FSU was always a team I wanted LSU play ooc instead of a cupcake. I always liked Bowden so I followed fsu for a while. "Wide Right" & ail. Hope this gets done! :-)
