I can't stand neutral site games.

They were cool the first couple times, but once you've played in enough of them, there is nothing exciting about opening the season in Houston or Dallas year after year. Green Bay was cool in theory but I still would have rather LSU played Wisconsin in Madison.

To the OP, I'd like to see LSU do another H&H with Notre Dame. We used to have one every 10 years or so but it's now been since 97/98 that we did a H&H with them, although we have met in a bowl game three times since.

The other one I've always wanted is actually happening with Texas starting next season, so I'm pumped about that

We have done a few we like to stick to the Dallas and Houston ones. It just gets old. At least let us go to that brand new stadium in ATL. I know we have a ton of tiger fans over there who’d love to get one. It’s like they only care about the Texas tigers

Syracuse...maybe not the one you personally wanted but it's still unique and a cool series.


Washington yes, Syracuse? Not really. Maybe in basketball. Not football.

There's a connection there. D'Antonio played DB for the Gamecocks and is an alum of The University of South Carolina.

No way I’d pass up an opportunity to visit Ohio stadium or Michigan stadium if LSU was playing. Once in a lifetime trip there.

CSU Rams, or Colorado Buffaloes because both are awesome college towns, it’d be in my backyard, and an easier opponent.

Wait a few years and CSU will be in the Big12 playing OU in Colorado every other year.

You have to be careful with Colorado teams. That thin air can sneak up on your players and you end up losing games you shouldn't because they are gassed.

The way we did the Wisconsin series could be the new way to do a "home and home" where you schedule two neutral site games in the backyard of each team. Imagine a series between Alabama and Ohio State where the first game is played in Atlanta and the second is played at the Browns Stadium in Cleveland. Or a LSU/USC series where one is played at Reliant in Houston and the other is at the new Rams Stadium.

I don't like this. You simply can't replace the "feel" of a big home and home on campus. The LSU game was a bit different because of playing at Lambeau but palying at Mercedes Benz, NRG, Jerryworld, etc just dont' really move the needle for me personally.

Michigan. LSU has never played them and would be a very fun home and home. Clemson would be another fun one.

Can't tie it up, if you don't play the games. I wouldn't mind playing Oklahoma, though.

That was one cool thing about being an independent team through the 80's, we played home and homes with teams like Michigan, Notre Dame, Nebraska and Florida State. I'd like to play VT home and home, the two best entrances in college football
