Coincidence...Or By Design??? (football-related question)
Was wondering about this...If I'm mistaken, please enlighten me. When was the last time (if ever) that either Mississippi State or Ole Miss ever played Southern Mississippi in football? I'm just curious, for I have no recollection of ever witnessing a matchup with USM against either school, if not, why hasn't that game taken place? That's something I'd love to see.
...Thanks in advance...

Thank you...I'd given up on the chance that anyone might chime in on the subject. I appreciate the feedback.

What really stinks is that MSU and Ole Miss gladly play away games at other CUSA schools, such as Memphis and UAB. They do this as a way to give them an advantage over USM. When the Big East was looking at Memphis's attendance and revenue figures, a lot of the sales figures they saw were boosted by our in-state rivals.

Can't see what the Big East saw in Memphis over Southern Miss in terms of expansion, had to be their basketball program they wanted more than their football team, I believe that may have been a courtesy, because basketball's the sport where the BE puts most of its' emphasis on. Thank you for your insight. Best wishes.

I am truly hoping that USM will find a home in a "BCS" conference.
Hopefully, it'll be wherever we are.
