In a nutshell, do you read this as "LSU pays Tulane so they can play in ATL" as well?

They may as well have written it that way. It makes me more inclined to think Bama might do the same thing with Tulane in 2012, if they get a neutral site proposal.

If Bama is willing to go on the road to NO in 2012, then why not buy out Tulane and then buy out Baylor from ND's off-site home game in NO? :smile:

I would have bet $100 that NBC was going to make Bama an offer they couldn't refuse to play ND in their off-site home game in Orlando in 2011. But that went to Army instead.

Toledo kicks team out of practice.
