I would love to see West Virginia experience Bryant-Denny or Wisconsin experience Tiger Stadium or Boise State experience Ole Miss and vise versa.

I am just kind of tired of the neutral games played in neutral cities. It makes no sense to me why every season kicks off with this bullshite. Yes, I know it is about the money but I would like for a team to truly have home advantage.

The same should go in the new playoff system as well

As a fan I would much rather visit another campus then go to Atlanta or Dallas. Wisconsin would probably be nice in August.

Disagree. It doesn't happen that often and creates different wrinkle for some high profile games.

I'm going to lambeau in 2016. Stadium will be cool. But the party in Madison would have been epic

another plus is you can usually drink inside the stadiums with these type games

Keep your wrinkles to yourself, bulldog.

Depends on where. ATL is fine, no interest in Jerry World.

But yeah, I like on campus games

Agree, would much rather a home and home. Screw NRG and Lambeau

Opening up against Wisky in the expanded Tiger stadium would have been nice

I'm sick of playing in Atlanta, but I don't care if WV ever sees the inside of BDS. Personally, I want us to schedule games against Washington (Seattle), Colorado (Denver), UCLA, USC, Stanford, etc.

It's all about the money. We're supposedly getting $7 million to play Michigan in Arlington.

It really is a shame that LSU and Wisconsin are playing a "Home and Home" in NFL stadiums. 2 of the greatest campuses/venues for College football.

I'm really just sick of games in Atlanta. Not sure why we haven't scheduled one in Tampa or Nashville by this point.

I don't mind the neutral site games if it's a single game. If it's a two-game series like LSU/Wisconsin, I would prefer they be played on campus, although I understand the financial aspect of it.
