Since neither of us did, you are looking at a #23 vs unranked match-up. Best case scenario, we move up 1 or 2 on a week off and Houston squeaks in and its #22 vs #25. Not appealing to the GameDay crew at all with #1 vs #13 going on.



If LSU vs Bama wasn't happening, the next choice would be to move one of the marquee Thursday games to Saturday or go to Virginia Tech vs Miami. Either way, unless it is a top 10 match-up or a really off week, I don't see GameDay stepping foot on our campus.

Word from Rivals was that they want any excuse to be on our campus. They almost did it for the USCe v. UCF game.



Persevere! ESPN has shown an odd interest in our program. Let's take advantage of it while we can!

We used to have a Disney Executive on the Board of Trustees. But she resigned in February and moved to California to become President of Operations for the US and France. Maybe she is pulling the strings for us. We used to have a Disney Executive on the Board of Trustees.
