Would it be possible to get some motel-hotel help please?

I've just had a couple of tickets fall in my lap to the LSU-Alabama game Nov. 11th. After the LSU game we would like to stay a couple of nights in a nice motel near the French Quarter close to Bourbon street and maybe close to the trolley system....and of course need a good bar to watch Saints vs Pitt. that sunday.

I know their has been several good threads on this subject, but I have had trouble finding them.

I'ts been over 35 years since I have lived in N.O. and would appreciate any help. Also sorry if I have posted this in the wrong forum.
