One Extra OOC Game Starting in 2012 (2011?)

[TYLERTECHSAS]

I just noticed that UL has Oklahoma State at home this year, thats two Big 12 schools at home in two years.

They have a 7000' runway in town I bet.

TCU future schedule:

2014
9-13 Louisiana State

2016

TBA Arkansas

If the Horned Frogs can get LSU and Arkansas to travel to Fort Worth there is no excuse for us not being able to get them to travel to Ruston.

I think their record helped a lot in this case.

2009: 12-1-0
2008: 11-2-0
2007: 8-5-0 down year
2006: 11-2-0
2005: 11-1-0

Not to mention their location (you think LSU needs much help in recruiting Louisiana?).

Budget.

National profile.

And History.

[PawDawg]

And History.

History in the last 10 years or so. Not so much before that unless you count being at the bottom of the SWC for all those years.

For what it's worth:

They also claim one from 1935 that is pretty bogus (I think it's like one guy's top ten list or something like that). Not that any NCs from back then weren't bogus.

Centenary had a football team back then?

Winning record against us and we won't ever be able to fix that.

That's what I was asking about earlier. If we are going to schedule or try to schedule CUSA teams, are Tulane and Memphis the next teams we are considering?

I don't know about Tulane. They talked like they wanted to schedule, and then (literally) quit returning calls. Pretty douchy.

Indeed. Replete with douchulence.

Mayor Cedric wants to have a Tech/Southern game in Shreveport.

Maybe we can sign a game where they get more money and get to be the home team.

Come on, man.

I don't understand why some folks on here are pouting about the GSU game.

It's Grambling's deal; they set up the 'classic'. They can have the t-shirt sales..

What's LA TECH's get out of it?
-a sure win against a cool opponent;
-a game in Shreesport (when classes won't be in session at TECH);
-a tune up for a new coach and offensive scheme;
-a pretty good take from it (what, ~600K?).

On top of a GREAT home lineup in Ruston, this game is truly lagniappe. Totally gravy.

Maybe I don't get it, though. Regardless, I'm fired up about it; going to be fun.

I don't get it either. I think it's great.
