Neutral site series vs LSU.

2024 in Fort Worth, 2025 in New Orleans.

Love the schedule coach Enfield is putting together, and playing a game against LSU in Ft Worth is hillarious!

SMU on fire

I would prefer if both games were at home. I know the fans in Dallas would prefer watching it at Moody and I would have gone to the game in Baton Rouge. It's an easier drive than New Orleans.

Agree, but it’s barely more than an hour from BR to NO. We need to be more worried about getting people to show up in Tarrant County.

I agree a true home & home series would be better. Just not convinced we will have a "home" crowd in Ft Worth the way LSU will in New Orleans

So how many will make the drive to Fort Worth? The last time we played in Dickie's (granted, it was the AAC and in awful weather), the turnout was embarrassing. We can talk about scheduling big opponents in various venues, but then we have to show up.

I'm assuming LSU wanted these neutral sites rather than having to come to Moody again...they are probably remembering the last time they visited in that 2nd round NIT game and lost by double digits

You can’t compare playing a mediocre American team in a tournament everyone knows we won’t win, to playing LSU with the first big time coach on our bench since LB. I will be there and, I think many others will be as well.

It’s a new day on the Hilltop, have faith!
