re: Best Super Bowl Host City?

Once the Titans get their new stadium, Nashville is going to make this list.

All of the bars on Broadway are going to be a quick walk across the bridge to the stadium and we’re building an entertainment district around it as well.
LSU has three national championships in the last 21 years while Notre Dame and Penn State have combined for a big fat zero in that time span.

Results speak for themselves. Sounds like a salty, shortsighted article to me.
I read an article that said we have the third largest NIL collective behind only Ohio St and Texas.

I think we just drew the line on how much we’d play a single player and Michigan went all in on him.
Crowd can make more of an impact than ever now that teams have radio communication in the helmets for the qb.
If it’s indeed Babb, he’s a graduate from the University of South Carolina.

That tells you all you need to know on potential motive.
The only difference between us and Mizzou is that we had a top-five FSU team as our out of conference game while they had Kansas St at home. Oh, and the fact we beat them by double digits at their house. They just had an easier schedule.
Iowa should drop out of the top 25 for this abomination of a game.
Anyone complaining about this obviously hasn’t been to a stadium that has them. It greatly enhances the atmosphere and is truly a spectacle.
Mississippi St beat the third best PAC-12 team this year in Arizona. Just saying…
LSU’s postgame traffic is the worst I’ve ever experienced. If they find a way to fix that, people won’t leave early.

Also, another major factor that rarely gets mentioned is the vast majority of fans at the game live within an hour away (Nola, Lafayette, Northshore, etc.) so they aren’t staying in town at a hotel and have a longer commute to get back home.
We had a completely new coaching staff and roster Kelly taped together from scratch that had largely never played together.

It was a massive advantage highlighted by all the miscues we had still working out the kinks.

re: Fans traveling to Orlando?

I’m about to board a flight down. Expecting 20k mainly because we’ve played so much in Orlando recently, but I think we double that number next year in Vegas.

quote:

Orlando is second at 130,000. There’s not a sold out hotel in Orlando for the FSU game. Barely a blip on the radar.



False. Almost everything in downtown Orlando is sold out. Had to book 10 miles out.
Flying out of ATL in a few hours. Have seven of us coming in from four different states today.
There’s a crap ton more of us heading up in the next couple days too who were holding out for the Champ Series.

re: Additional Flights to Omaha

I'd check out flights to Kansas City, Des Moines and Lincoln too. Did the whole rental car thing from KC in 2009 and it worked out great. Flights to/from KC were way cheaper and it was only a three hour drive to Omaha.
I think this is a combination of there being a lot of LSU fans in Dallas and Iowa competing for a championship in God knows how long in a major sport, so their fans are traveling in droves.

I don’t get it either. College football is entertainment and I want as many good games as I can get.

We would likely have to beat them to achieve our goals anyway. Whether it’s in the regular season or in Atlanta or in the playoffs an SEC team is likely going to have to contend with Alabama to win the national championship.


But now we’ll probably have to beat them twice in a season to do so. Remind me how that went last time?

I want whatever is the best scenario for LSU to make the playoffs every year and this isn’t it.
