Way to go Coach! An easy drive for most of us.
EXCELLENT! 2 for 2 and with a CUSA team. Pretty soon we will pretty much be in CUSA with our OOC schedule. :icon_wink:
What's even more awesome is how the openers to these series (Miss. St, Southern Miss, and now Houston) are at OUR HOUSE...
Great job Dooley/Van De Velde...
Good game. Coincidence we are scheduling CUSA yet again? Probably more of the implication that we wanted away games our fans can also go to. We start with Shreveport and going to Texas now!
Must say though, wish it was going the other side of Louisiana!
(If confused, see my location!)
they're going to have their hands full finding ooc games if we join cusa in the next couple of years.
not that i'm complaining.
i am complaining, however, that they waited to start the southern miss series after i moved away from southern mississippi. with my luck, i'll be out of the houston area before our first game down here in 2012.
why did we play houston in hattiesburg in 1948?Originally Posted by the article

Schweet, that is what I am talking about.
Damn. If we keep getting these great games, there won't be any room on the schedule for ul-x
Awesome news
Fantastic! It's like these guys know what they're doing or something!
