If we are going to do 2 for 1 deal, I certainly wouldn't have given Vandy the first two years!


I think this is a fair point. I also think it’s odd we get a home game after they’ve gotten both of theirs.



SMU gets game three because that will make it much easier for Vandy to enact a buyout clause which will allow them to avoid traveling to Ford.

Especially after we beat them twice in Nashville.

That's exactly what many of us are concerned about...

Anyone else remember the PA announcer saying something like "ladies and gentlemen, if the Mustangs hand on, it will be their first shutout since ........." ... and then Vandy scored on the next play, or next series? :lol:
