We all know the proper name for a university in that part of a state (though not actually a direction) is the more university educated term “central”. “Middle” is the name for an elementary school.
Tennessee is historically divided into three regions and the "Central" region has been called "Middle" Tennessee for about 200 years. If Florida had designated the Orlando area as "Middle" Florida; then UCF would probably be UMF. There is no such thing as "Central" Tennessee.

We own Memphis State. Total win record is 17 - 9. Sorry about the facts.
Strategically, MTSU is dying. Our school (my grad degree is from MTSU) starves for resources as the gap widens between the haves (the P-5) and the have nots (the G-5). The schools within the AAC have the best chance of survival. It is not right or fair, but MTSU is out in the cold. Start shivering.
I stopped "shivering " just long enough to give you a little footnote to the Memphis vs. MT dialogue. Not only is Middle up on your tigers 17-9 all-time but contrary to the "World War II" bologney we've won 4 of the last 6. ALL IN The Last 12 years! If we can just borrow your sugar daddy, Fred Smith and get some of that Fed EX money MT will be just fine.
A wealthy benefactor is a necessary ingredient in a successful athletic program these days. Don't begrudge us ours. If you need one, hire a decent AD and let him go get one. Must be a liberal... jealous of other's success instead of buckling down and working on your own success process.

Just curious,,,,, but WTF your does your ignorant opinion of "liberals" have to do with this discussion? I thought there was another board for you and your ilk to go circle jerk . I don't know about you but I come here to get away from that shiite.

Exactly. Absent any political persuasion, the simple facts are Fred Smith and Fed Ex were and are shrewd,savvy, loyal and committed enough to give full-throated
financial support to Memphis and it didn't have anything to do with who the AD was or is. You are to be commended for your good fortune. In Nashville, MT has to compete for dollars with Titans, Preds, Vandy, and UT. We'll survive and whether Shere Khan wants to play MT or not, it's inevitable. Just not this year.

They need to be more thankful we put in a good word for them so they could get in CUSA.

It's not political, it's societal. The lines between the world of politics and sports has been completely blurred by the likes of the NFL kneelers and people like Geoff Calkins and Gary what's his face. I'm not talking about Party politics. I'm talking about society's ever-more widening penchant for victimhood.

Excellent Suggestion.
MTSU has had some good teams these past 5-6 season...both programs have big fan bases in Nashville and it gives the Jackson Tiger fans an easy game to dive to.
say 1 game in Nashville every 3 years would keep the series 'fresh'
