Can we start a formal petition / letter to issue to the administration / athletic department to do away with the neutral site games?

I'm unsure if these neutral sites benefits LSU at all.

Like the season-opening game for next season, we play Florida State in Orlando. That's practically home for FS.

In 2024, we go to Las Vegas for the season opener against USC. That's practically home for USC.

Then, in 2027, we go to Houston to play the Cougars in Houston’s NRG Stadium. That's practically home for them!

These are not neutral sites if you ask me.

Texas- home and home(BR game canceled b/c conference switch)
UCLA- home and home
Clemson- home and home
ASU- home and home
Utah- home and home
Oklahoma- home and home (canceled b/c conference switch)

USC- neutral
FSU- 2 neutral

2019-2031: 12 on campus scheduled games; 4 neutral. 75% of scheduled power 5 non-conference games are not neutral.

I actually don’t mind them. I have gone to a bunch of them and usually like making a Labor Day weekend vacation out of them.

If it's in a good city with a good venue, i.e. Vegas, Nola, and/or Dallas, I like a neutral site game.

$$$

Those games are worth many more millions than opening at home against Furman...

Also teams are being pressured to raise the quality of OOC games and few want to commit to home and home games.

Lastly, these games have a big impact on recruiting hot bed areas like Houston, Dallas, GA and FL
