Hasn't happen since Penn State

Or even play in a neutral site away from a SEC state

When will TAMU football be relevant again?

Sometime long after 2020. Neutral site games are too profitable to stop playing in them. New AD Greg Byrne has already said that they'll continue to be scheduled.

Wouldn't a home game be more profitable?

I know right. It's bitten us in the arse so many times considering we've been to BCS/CFP games for 9 years in a row

When people care about your team you get cush OOC neutral site games. I know, foreign to you.

Moreso for the city. It's a guaranteed haul for the football program in a major kickoff game.

You lose on the return game in home-and-home series.

There is a chance you can lose

Why don't you play a home and home against another blue blood
Georgia is playing ND
LSU is playing Texas
May be others in the SEC but those are the ones off of the top of the head

That Bama OU home and home about 15 years ago was a great home and home for both universities

really it just averages it out. the only benefit is you dont have to play the same team two years in a row(besides playing location)

If it's not broke, don't fix it. They have total leverage. Everyone wants to play the best team, because if you beat them you earn insane respect. Ole Miss goes .500 against them and they can't stop pounding their chest. I don't say that to disparage Ole Miss, it just shows how much credibility is gained by beating them. Because they know that, why would they play anywhere that would decrease the chances of a Bama victory? They'd have zero to gain by it.
