Heart of Dallas Kickoff Classic at Cotton Bowl

[UNTLifer]

Why play KSU at the Cotton Bowl when they have proven they will come to Denton? I would rather have an Iowa State, Missouri, Mississippi, Miss St, Kentucky, etc... at Apogee than UT, A&M, LSU...in Dallas.

The program hasn't reached that level to do those sorts of things and having games in venues that have 90K+ capacity. Look I get the exposure and attraction we could get but having about 80K opposing fans and 10K of our fans considered to be a home game in our home area just doesn't do it for me. Let's stick with mid level BCS programs and have them come to Apogee. Let's also show we can fill out Apogee and then some and continue to grow the program and when the time comes and the time is right that possibility can legitimately be discussed. Oh and remember winning and winning consistently has to be a part of any and every equation.

I think that the Cotton Bowl or Jerry World should be reserved only for a home game against the biggest names in college football. I actually think that a team like LSU would do this against us if we signed a 2 for 1. Hell, they are playing TCU there next year. Give Nebraska, Ohio State, or Michigan a call and offer up a 2 for 1. Call USC or Florida State and offer this up. But, no one else is even worth that kind of game or deal. I'm of the belief that you should always go for a 2 for 1 deal no matter what, but Apogee would more than support almost school that would want to play a game in DFW. Obviously, Texas, A&M, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Tech, and Baylor have already scheduled games in the Metroplex, which only hurts us from ever playing them in the Metroplex, much less Denton. But I still believe that Nebraska would do this deal, since they lost their games down here in Texas when they left for the B1G.

Play someone with a fan base that likes fairs.

Last time I bothered to go to the Arkansas State Fair I saw a lot of Razorback t-shirts so maybe call them.
