I get your point. But ULM's game with Baylor was in 2012, the same year we played A&M in Shreveport. We've also played Mississippi State in Ruston just 2 seasons ago. They're playing Memphis this week, while we have 2 AAC schools - SMU and Tulsa on the schedule in future years. There are better examples than ULM.
We have enticing home games scheduled, but they're just not enough of them. I mentioned SMU and Tulsa. In addition:
Baylor's trip to Ruston was pushed back from 2021 to 2023.

We have NC State in Ruston in 2025.
