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.

Yep. LSU playing in Lambeau field is going to be ridiculous, and I'm looking forward to the trip. That said, give me the Rose Bowl, Camp Randall, Happy Valley, or Notre Dame Stadium any day over the Georgia Dome, Jerry World, or NRG.

I'm sure fans in other conferences would say the same thing about Bryant Denny, Death Valley, and Between the Hedges.

Some of my best memories from undergrad were the road trips to other campuses, and with the SEC's bullshite scheduling and the neutral site garbage, that's becoming an increasingly rare opportunity.
