Is it really that hard to figure out? For most teams, 3-4 of the games on the schedule are a complete joke. More and more powerhouse schools are moving towards these stupid neutral site games, which, unless you're playing in Jerry World, likely has less seats than the team's home stadium.
Couple that with the fact that depending on the year, your conference opponents might be complete trash. Alabama and Ole Miss were the only games worth going to at LSU last year, and the Wisconsin game was at NRG Stadium. Athletic director's are really f*cking stupid if they can't figure this out.

Couldn't agree more. Get rid of the neutral site games every year. When your only worthy OOC game is at a neutral site, are you really surprised fan support dwindles? I bet Bama fans (and students) would be much more hyped up to go to Ann Arbor or Norman, OK than yet another trip to Atlanta or Jerrah World. Plus, you'd get those teams on the payback trip to Tuscaloosa.
