We played La Tech in Shreveport, arguably worse IMO

Alabama also played @ Duke in 2010. I know about the Wallace Wade connection but that was still pretty weird.

I can't think of any games against non-P5 schools in the last couple of decades, other than games in the Superdome against Tulane. The Carrier Dome game a couple of years ago was a little out there.

At Arkansas's 2nd stadium I believe

They had a couple that year, was mostly because of the new season in the SEC though

Still doesnt compare to state's away games since '06

I'm pretty sure we never played at Monroe. Must be thinking about when we played in Little Rock but let them be the home team to help with their attendance total to stay D1.

Never though I'd see LSU play in the Carrier Dome


LSU has had/will have some interesting road games

2002 - @ Virginia Tech
2003 - @ Arizona
2005 - @ Arizona State
2009 - @ Washington
2011 - @ West Virginia
2015 - @ Syracuse
2016 - @ Wisconsin (Lambeau)
2019 - @ Texas
2021 - @ UCLA
2026 - @ Arizona State
2027 - @ Oklahoma

That's a good slate for a 20 year period. LSU does scheduling perfectly, IMHO. Neutral site games ever 2-3 years and fun home and homes.

ASU was supposed to be in BR but was moved to Tempe after Katrina.

2015 and 2017 (BYU in Houston) are pretty meh. We have home-and-homes coming up with OU and Texas I think

We played @SMU that year too. I view those differently though since it's a former rival and in state. For a weirdo non P5 away game it was a fun atmosphere the couple times we did it

We played @ Rutgers in 1986. I wish I could find the pic of Galen Hall dressed up in cammies and warpaint for the game program cover.

Yea - I didn't really count those regional games or old "rivalries" (State/Ole Miss @ Memphis/Tulane, LSU @ Tulane, Texas A&M/Arkansas @ old SWC teams).

Those are going down a level, but they don't seem out of the blue like Mississippi State going to South Alabama does.

That list doesn't include the Memphis games, either.


Around half of the SEC has played at Memphis in the past. I know State, Ole Miss, UT, Vandy, Bama and Arkansas have.

Mizzou played a Sunbelt club in AL recently as well. Not sure which.

Yea I saw that - USM has convinced a few people to go down there the last few years.

2001 - Oklahoma State
2002 - Illinois
2003 - Nebraska
2006 - NC State
2009 - Virginia
2015 - Mississippi State
2017 - Kentucky

For AU, there really isnt much. You have at Virginia in the 90's as the only suspect game, going all the way back to the 70's
