USA has both of those teams as future opponents too. Now only if UA & AU would follow this example and start scheduling USA, UAB & Troy. I'm all for keeping as much OOC money in-state as possible for all of the FBS schools.

my ideal schedule would be a home and home with both troy and usa. that way we would have one instate FBS home and away game every year. for the one fcs home game I would try and schedule instate as well with Alabama A&M, State, and Jacksonville being my first choice because of their fan bases and bands. The last ncg would be a money away game.

I'd love to have UAB & USM as alternating H&H OOC opponents on a regular basis.

doubt Mississippi Southern would play you. south is too much of a threat to them because of location.

Surprisingly, we have a H&H scheduled with them in the next couple of years.

I would think that could turn into a big game lots of away fans

I'd guess USM travels pretty well to close sites. I know USA does - 5-6k at Tulane, 3-4.5k at Georgia State, etc. I'd be surprised if we don't bring between 6-7k to Hattiesburg.

How many do you think would travel to Birmingham

If both teams are competitive at the time, probably somewhere between 5-6k would be my guess. Of course, my USM guess would be based upon the same scenario also.
