USM is scheduled to come to Troy next season. The end of our short-lived 2-game series I suppose.

Wouldn't mind another series since it's just a 4-hour drive between both.

Looking forward to playing WKU... Troy will make that 9-2 overall record against the Hilltoppers 11-2 after it's all said and done...

You probably won't have to wait long. Our AD wants to schedule more regional OOC teams.

Since our AD is from Southern Miss already, you may be right.

Although MT had a healthy rivalry with Troy (although they killed us frequently); I'm not sure any CUSA school regularly scheduling our former Sun Belt brethren enhances CUSA as a league. Maybe an economic necessity for some of us? Does Troy have anything to do with recent Budget Cuts at WKU? We all need to continuously play AAC, ACC, and SEC teams for both the Exposure and the Money.

Same here, not really excited playing CUSA teams other than USM, Marshall, and maybe LA Tech. Nothing to be gained...

See I want the opposite. More Sun Belt teams please. We can drive to pretty much all of them.

You'd prefer a h/h w/ a Sun Belt team over Cincinnati? Geez...

For sure. Don't even have to think about that. Cincinnati went 4-8 the last 2 years. The casual fan down here isn't going to give a shat about Cincinnati.

2 hours away from white sand beaches and water temps in the high 70s to low 80s in Sept. or Oct. great fishing and reasonable to cheap beach/ocean front condos for a long weekend trip.

$500 (sometimes less) you get to spend 4 days at the beach, or fishing, or just relaxing on a 10 story balcony drinking a beer or coffee watch sharks, dolphins and rays swimming by in the morning or late afternoon. Then watch your team win a football game.

Can not get any better than that in mid to late Sept or early Oct

There's a ton of S. Miss fans that think just like TTT and not like you are thinking....

forget a name, its just that, a name of a team you used to be in a conference with. Troy on the other hand will bring more fans to their away game and S. Miss has a easier travel game to Troy.

To TTT and others they still think playing Cincinnati carries more weight. When in fact S. Miss is competing more with Troy for recruits than a northern base school. A school with just a old familiar name but playing at the same level as Troy. Probably not as high of a level right now....

yet some fans can't leave the past

Plus like I said stop over in PCB and see some clear ocean water not that brown water. Then drive up and get a win.
