Baylor vs Sand Aggy at 11 at Jerry World. Followed by Aggy vs Arkansas at 2:30? The Ranger playoff game on the same day probably at night. Should be a packed area, Arlington is about to rake in the money.

You can ask the conference to not have a game that weekend. In fact, pretty much every school requests not to have a home game on their fall break and not to have a home game over Thanksgiving weekend. Due to scheduling issues, most of those requests are unable to be honored.

CUSA is not the federal government. Its basically just a guy who lives in UP and commutes to Las Colinas in the morning. Oh well, whatever.

Given fall break and A&M/Arkansas, we'll be lucky to hit 16,000. Why do they always schedule fall break around a home game? For that matter why fall break anyway?

Please see elsewhere in this thread.

As for why fall break, a few years ago they didn't have fall break, opting instead to give a week off at Thanksgiving. So many people complained that fall break was reinstituted the following year.
