RE: MTSU to host UTK in 2020
Hell would freeze over before UK football played anyone at home besides their conference games they are forced to play....They have 8 home games every season, this seasons slate included EKU, the Cajuns and Charlotte, haha...Even funnier that is half of the 6 wins they need given to them and they will still not make a bowl game...
Not sure what UK football has ever done to deserve or think they have that right, but they do nerveless...

We would have a better shot at getting into the Big Ten than LSU playing a football game in Ruston.

Marshall has tried to get UK to play football for years. The UK AD asked Hamrick to stop calling.

After we beat UK football 2 years in a row, doubt we will ever play them again....

RE: MTSU to host UTK in 2020
We lost by 8 points to LSU in 2009 and they haven't scheduled us since. If we or any other in state school were to beat LSU there would be an emergency legislative session to vote on a plan to cut funding to that particular school. Them tiggers don't like competition. Its so bad, that I would even root for ULL or ULM to beat them....well almost that bad.

Be it known that Miami isn't afraid to schedule CUSA teams. We have a home-and-home with FAU.

Being right down the block probably doesn't hurt. They can fill both stadiums with Miami fans, though they are few and far between as well.
We had a 2-1 schedule with them several years back and a home game with Tennessee scheduled at the end of a 3-1 but our ******* AD cancelled Tennessee after we'd played there already and cancelled the Miami series altogether.

True. Miami fans should outnumber FAU fans this year at FAU. Not many around. When we played FAU at Sun Life, the crowd was about 50,000. I think Only one section (shocked there were so few) was FAU fans.

RE: MTSU to host UTK in 2020
I am convinced that Tennessee will NEVER come to Horace Jones field (Thanks VANDY for having the guts to finally do it). I'd settle for UT agreeing to play MT at LP Field and designating it as a Home game for MT. I believe we drew about 38,000 when we hosted Louisville some years ago at the Titans stadium and I'm confident we'd have over 50,000 in Nashville for a "home tilt" with the Vols. Alas, the Orange probably don't have the guts to play us anywhere but Knoxville.

Sad thing about Vandy is we may have more fans in their own stadium than they will, like the last time we played them.

We very well may have more. I have attended all three of the most recent games at Dudley Field; We have always appeared to have a couple of thousand more than the Dores. But, I would be OK with them having 3X the fans we do, as long as we win!

Gotta keep the streak up this year. Can't have Vandy thinking they're good if they beat us.
