Honest opinions: does anyone really think this was a good idea?

[CajunEXPRESS]

Shoulda been part of season ticket package. But yes it's a tremodous idea. One we need to happen annually.

Unless you think we have no business on the big stage.

6 home games and another easy road trip against a big name? Hell yea, what’s the negative?

Greed.

Make this part of season tickets instead of milking your consumer again

[CajunEXPRESS]

Well by not making it part of the season ticket it’s voluntary. So you’re not being milked. Go if you want, don’t go if you don’t wanna.

You lost me. You want to be forced to pay a higher price for a game 2 hours away that you may not attend?

So there are saints fans that want to pay full price for preseason I guess.

Yes I do. I want it in my season tickets.

What does preseason nfl have to do with college?

[Jacob81]

What if they offered a season ticket package for whatever number of home games you want? Example; you can only attend 4 home games so get a package for those 4. Would this be terrible too?

How does it hurt you that you have to buy the Nola game separate. Or you wanting it part of package to hopefully sell more tickets to the game?

[anhil8tor]

I want it to sell more tickets. I think that's the best option for fans and the university.

The New Orleans bowl sells itself. I'm not sure a season open does. I get it that's the way the "other" schools do it...

And where would they put you? What if i want to bring more people than i have season tickets and all want to sit together? Have a bunch of season tickets issued and empty seats everywhere for people that didn’t go?

Greed? People have been clamoring for years/ decades for a higher quality athletic / football program. Now that we've (finally) got professional leadership in the athletic department, people are complaining about costs? It 's not cheap to run that kind of program. Of course we could always go back to the Southland Conference days...

[Cajunfanatico]

I see absolutely zero downside to this idea, opening the season in the friggin' Super Dome against an SEC opponent. I wish we could do it every year, perhaps rotating with other P5 conferences.
