I don't think you have to worry too much about AU playing a neutral site game any time soon.

Do you believe Auburn gets invitations to games like you mention?
It's evident that games with high-profile teams were available. i.e. aTm/UCLA, LSU/Wisky, UA/USC, UGA/ND
I'm sure Jacobs had revenge on his mind, and wanted to give Gus the opportunity to get the upper hand for the two more recent losses to CU. And he probably wanted to give the AU another good home game in '16.

I have a feeling Jacobs was thinking the fanbase wants to restore the old rivalries and Clemson is the easiest one. All the surveys and such they have given, give me that opinion

Auburn has tried to schedule games with Michigan and Notre Dame in recent years. There is no reason for them to play Auburn. We don't carry the political clout of the state named schools.
Any insinuation that a AD would schedule a game for revenge from two losses in what turned out to be the biggest dumpster fire in the programs history is absurd.
I believe Auburn and Clemson need each other. They have the same disadvantages and playing each other offers a similar upside.
