No clue. But they do have an on-campus stadium.
My first thought when clicking on that was, "Where the hell is 'Boro'?"
We've had Pitt, VPI, Kansas, and Miss. St. We have Ole Miss on the way and are working on others. That's not many, but some folks act like we've never had one.

The part I took away from the article was that this is the 5th straight year they've had someone from a BCS conference come to their place to play.
While I'll 'believe it when it see it', I spoke with a USA football coach last weekend ans he told me they are working on a 3-1 series with the Aubies. Yes, that's right, Auburn might be giving USA a home game.

3 for 1 would NOT be worth it for any team out there.

Well that's not exactly true...they hosted 5 years in a row, but not all the games were on campus. One game was in Nashville.

Yeah, but wasn't it UGA that wouldn't give us a 2 for 1 with our 'home' game in Atlanta?

I think it depends a lot on the connections that the people in the athletic department have (or don't have).

4 out of 5 is still far better than what we're pulling in.

Tulsa and Oklahoma signed a 3-for-1.
