Well I don't know then. Maybe the conference hates Randy Norton and never wants him to see his son play in person.

Then there would be people complaining about games ending late or women's games being too early or concession stand workers having to work double shifts. Blazes costume is hot, you know.

Yep, but probably a way for more to see the women play.

Heck, charge a few bucks for the women's game & have a really decent sized crowd.

I guess it brings up the question? Do the women's team prefer being the main attraction, even if it means less in the stands, or do they want to be the opening act for the men's team?

I suspect if there were double headers, Title Ix would dictate that the men open for the women some nights.

I wouldn't care which order the teams played in but I'd be more likely to see the women if they played first.

Last game I attended for the women (maybe year before last) they played Southern Miss prior to the men playing.

It would be nice to do it a couple of times a year. Perhaps one such time could be as part of the Bartow Classic...

Would playing tandem games save travel expenses since both teams are going to the same site on the same day?
