A&M just played at SMU's 32,000 seat stadium in 2014 lol

LSU is playing at an NFL stadium in an area where it out recruits your own team lol

Rice and LSU have a lot of football history. LSU has played Rice 55 times, more than they've played A&M (54), Auburn (50), Tennessee (32), Vanderbilt (30), Georgia (30), or South Carolina (21
