The Aggies will never succeed in the SEC. They'll regret the day they left big brother's side. Right, right?

So ULM can get Wake Forest to open the season in their stadium? Your move RV.

On the NFL side, Trice just leveled a dude. Knocked the dude's helmet off.

And with about a $4-6 Million football budget they get an ACC team into Malone....Crazy!

Rick

Pardon me....ULM hasn't quite reached the $4 Million plateau just yet reporting a $3.7 Million Football budget last year,...compared to $14 Million for Wake, which is probably a drop in the bucket compared to their SEC revenue check they got last year.

Would you really be excited about having WF at home? I dont remember you drooling over having Indiana at Apogee...

Indiana was 1-11 and is still the marquee home game of the Apogee era.

You happy with that?

My point is WF is just as bad. They will likely be 1-11 this year as well. They are one of the worst teams in FBS.

I'm not happy with our scheduling either, but this game is not a good example of a G5 scheduling a marquee game. Good win for ULM, but I think the SMUg series is much better.

Would like to see some more good home games, bring K-State to Apogee, that would be sweet.

Not even close. They were in a bowl three years ago and have had wins over Boston College, Florida State, NC State, North Carolina and Maryland from that season on.

USA Today and Orlando Sentinel disagree. They had them at 105 and 100 respectively and that was before they lost to Monroe. They might have done something three years ago, but they are now the third youngest team in FBS and just aren't good. I wouldn't be surprised if they don't beat an FBS opponent this year.

I wish it were as simple as how they are now, or how they are perceived recently, or how big they were.

But it's not. It's usually a combination of the 3, varying based on who you talk to.

Let's stop splitting hairs. Apogee scheduling has been a big pie on RVs face.

Wake is more of a marquee game than SMU.

Or anyone on our schedule through 2019.

This is the last post of the scheduling failures for the weekend. Time to enjoy football.

You're right on all accounts.

      Should we add Texas State to the AAC?

      TXST in the same conference would be fun, but there are a lot of great moves to make... many of the current teams in our conference need to be kicked out first to avoid cheapening the media payout.

      Who did better? PAC 12 or Mountain West?

      Before the PAC2 raided the MWC, I had been a supporter of joining a rebuilt PAC, as long as it was a true "Western Conference" of D1, and we shared a nice little 6-8 division with the likes of Memphis, UTSA, Colorado State, Air Force, New Mexico, Tulane, and a Rice or Tulsa. But it did not appear the PAC was going to bring enough programs close to DFW to make the added travel and exit fees worth it. Still don't know how the MWC held onto UNLV and Nevada, otherwise it'd be an even crappier conference than CUSA. But unlike the PAC7, it will still be recognized as an FBS conference next July. Doesn't seem like Memphis, Tulane, and USF will be going there, especially with an unknown TV deal. Ultimately I think with realignment, one of the G6 leagues will dissolve. The American struggles by being a league with several new teams, no notable rivalries, and no regional tie like the PAC, SBC, MWC, and MAC claim. And there are plenty of moves we could make to improve across many sports, but the league is so saturated. If it were up to me, I'd get Rice, Tulsa, Charlotte, Temple out of the conference. Force FAU and UTSA to find a solution to their high school gyms. Add Texas State, James Madison, Liberty, Western Kentucky, Appalachian State, and Louisiana. That would create a 16-team conference with a 8-team West Division UNT would share and play annually against with UTSA, TXST, Tulane, Louisiana, Memphis, Western Kentucky, and UAB. Instead of playing frickin' Temple three times in three years. That would leave us at 15 teams for basketball, I'd add up to three non-football members between Dayton, St. Louis, VCU, Richmond.

      Women vs. South Florida (1/12/25)

      Get your rears to The Pit tomorrow! The ladies have a difficult opponent to face coming off their failed comeback in New Orleans the other night. South Florida is 11-6 but tied for a league-best 4-0 in AAC play. They were picked to win the conference last year but we beat them in our one meeting in Tampa. USF absolutely crushed Wichita State the other night in Kansas: 72-46. Tickets: https://meangreensports.evenue.net/event/WB24/WB10
