Calling USA a Division II school is laughable considering we have an all-time winning record against your school in basketball and baseball; we are 0-0 in football.

It's called a joke! But, it also got the desired response!

I figured it was tongue-in-cheek. I just like pointing out our winning record whenever possible. Thanks for another opportunity to do so.

When we announced football I immediately thought about the games with Troy, the Cajuns, and WKU.

Last year we didn't play so this will be the first and most likely only game in the series.

A nice little potential rivalry that died on the vine.

I would like to play this game OOC late in the season, double header with a basketball game. USA fans could make the trek up and catch both. One trip, two games!

Or WKU fans could make a trip down...

I love this ideal of playing USA in the afternoon for football and that evening a basketball game. Early Nov when the game is in BG and the last game of the regular season (football) when it's at USA.

I think it's a win win for both schools and especially for me...I love fishing in the Gulf Coast

yet there's that annoying losing record to c-lee (pbuh) in conference player of the year contests.

i like pointing that out whenever possible. thanks for another opportunity to do so!

No. This score is possible only if you give us the 7 turnovers, otherwise 100 - 21.

But it's a relatively small sample size!

What WKU's record in March vs. USA when it counts? I am guessing that is a winning record...But give credit to USA, if not for you guys we would have winning record against every Sun Belt team last season and this season...

They're the only school in the belt that has a winning overall record against us--31-33--Hopefully, we leave the conference at least .500 with them after this season!

Yea that is what I was saying that no other teams the ones that left and entered, no one has a winning record vs. us besides USA...........

Getting back to .500 with the men from mitchell would be an excellent accomplishment! P.S.-I will be at sat game-any parking advice or no problems? Go WKU!!!

You can try your luck around Ladd, but parking is limited down there. Only people with a parking pass can park at the Stadium. I'd recommend going to Bel-Air mall and taking the shuttle behind Target/JC Penny. It's $2.50 round trip and probably the easiest way in and out of the stadium anyway.

No offense, but if we drop this game, there is no way that we get to a BCS bowl. It is near impossible right now. 11-1 out of the SBC is going to be tough, especially if Fresno or Utah St also go 11-1.

A BCS Bowl?

IT was a very VERY optimistic SOME WKU fans had.

I was not one of them. Even if we destroyed every team on our schedule and went 12-0, I wouldn't even expect to be RANKED, let alone get into a BCS bowl.

You would have been ranked for sure going 12-0. Guaranteed.

There are places all along Virginia St. where you can park for about 10 bucks.

We used that parking for years for the Senior Bowl and never had an issue.

Well.... someone did take one of my USA car magnets during Senior Bowl 2011, but they left the other one so I figure it was just a fan with cash flow problems and I was helping spread Jag Fever.

You have officially lost it...

At 12-0, with ASU, ULM, TROY (don't call me STATE), Navy/Army, UT, and ULL all potentially being bowl teams. We would have a shot at getting to #16 and beyond. The biggest obstacle will be getting past the MWC teams BSU and FSU. It could have been done, and still can be. We just need a few breaks.

Long live Troy State! Almost all Troy fans don't mind "Troy State" because we have lots of pride in what we used to be. GO TROY STATE! Technically, we're branded TROY, but there's no point in throwing a fit about it.

We were once WKSU, WKSC, and WKSNS. and never forget WKSNSATC!!!! I don't know where I picked that up, but it just seems funny to stick it on after Troy...No offense intended.
