Not up for discussion since they won't do it.
If our AD wasn't such a wuss he would send a message to both of the ulxers offering them the SCst, Grambling, or Southern deal.

He is right about one thing. It is NOT a rivalry. It's way to one-sided to be a rivalry.
Did Northeast win 7 or 8 games during that decade?

The referenced article shows the difference in Tech and ULM. Were Teddy Allen reporting from a rain delayed game, his ruminations would be interesting, accurate, and humorous. Hudsucker is certainly not a Teddy Allen. Of course, none are.

Wow, pathetic, but I guess yall over there in nela are used to it. Guess I should count my blessings to have grown up reading Buddy Davis and Jerry Byrd. Journalism is officially dead over there.

Correct, they won 7, we beat them 3 in the 80s. One of our wins was declared void a few fears later. It was a loooooong time ago. When their temporary success began that decade, Jimmy Carter was president and the year of their last win was in Reagan's second term four years BEFORE the internet became available to the public. Ancient history. I think score was kept on stone tablets.

I'd have no problem whatsoever paying them a little to play at the JOE.

Only problem is that even if they were willing to take that route, FBS schools usually want more money for body bag games than FCS schools. So playing NSU is way cheaper.
