I've gotta say that you're not a very good endorsement for the future medical profession...are you in vet school?

It doesn't to me. I went to the LSU-Oregon game it was almost like a bowl game and not a regular season game. It was nice to have an air conditioned stadium when it was 107 outside (and still felt better than BR on a summer afternoon), but the enviroment of LSU-UW in BR or LSU-VT (from 2007) were better IMO. I prefer home and home.

Oh yeah Western Carolina and Sam Houston State (LSU played them) offer great variety.
I would prefer better home and homes. This neutral site shite is one of the main reasons why attendance is down at football games. LSU-Wisconsin would be massive sellouts in both BR and Madison and so would Bama-FSU.

Why because I don't think neutral site games are good for CFB?
