Both teams are bottom feeders and give us no respect.SC, I am not saying sign a whole bunch and lose home games. We have 5 OOC games to play with, there are probably 2 home cupcakes and the 3 or 4 conference games ...With those 2 and the 7 conference games that gives us 3 extra games to play with I'm sure we could set it so we have at least one at home.Turkey, The Seminoles played the Citadel last year, can't get much smaller than that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never said I was proud of it.However, some of your delusional fans think Texas doesn't travel well. I am saying that they would have brought many more to RJS than Miami will.I would imagine there will be quite a few Texas season ticket holders in 07. Just another reason....

The Miami deal is AWESOME, and I cannot wait for those games. However, we need to make our mark if we expect to gain credibility. Winning/Losing to 2 bottom feeders in the BCS dosen't do that.

A D-IAA team is nothing more than a good warm up game.(unless it's FAMU, then you get a crowd too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHAT A STUPID POST DONT WE WANT TO COMPETE AND PLAY THE BEST? WE COULD HAVE PLAYED THEM 3 TIMES : ONLY A LOSER WOULD TURN DOWN A CHANCE TO PLAY NATIONAL CHAMPS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
