I am so excited! I can't wait to renew my football tickets for 2020 unless we have a Ford reseat before then.

Go ahead and name some then.

I think that's what some of our opponents say when they hear they have scheduled SMU. We have not fared well against La Tech since out days as conference mates in the WAC. We might be better off scheduling a series with Rice, but SMU and Rice would draw about 10k for those games

The G5 have really been relegated to the kiddie table.

You should see the P5 games our conference mates have been able to get. Home and Home none of that 2-1 junk

East Carolina - Home/homes with NC. State, South Carolina, Virginia Tech, BYU, Boise State, Wake Forest, and home game with West Virginia.

Houston - H/H with Washington State, BYU, Texas Tech, Kansas, Rice, Arizona, and @Vanderbilt.

Memphis - H/H w/ Mississippi State, Ole Miss, Missouri, and @ Purdue.

Temple - H/H w/ Maryland, Boston College, Miami (FL), Rutgers, Oklahoma and @GA Tech

Tulane - H/H w/ Wake Forest, Kansas State, Oklahoma, Mississippi State, Duke, Southern Miss.

We should have had that Wake Forest game as we are similar in size and background

We need to get Baylor back on the schedule, especially if TCU drops us. They have ACU, UTSA and Duke next year. Not much better than ours.

They can do that and fill the stadium. They are in Waco. They also play TCU, Texas, Tech, Oklahoma, etc and need those possible wins early in the year.

What's your point? We could fill ours if we played in the Big 12 also. BTW, I do believe UTSA is on the road for Baylor. My point was that they should play @ SMU if they are willing to play @ UTSA.

We ended that series so I doubt they will be willing to play us again any time soon.
