Well that'll sure draw a crowd. Why can't we get a decent home and home like the rest of the SBC?
Here's some
We don't have the room like UTSA has with the Alamodome and some teams won't come to a 30K stadium for anything.
Texas FBS teams see us as beneath them. Hell, UH won't come to SM. I don't see that Baylor, SMU, Rice, TCU etc., etc., are knocking down our door to get a deal signed.
Fact is, for TX teams, only Baylor has signed with UTSA and that's a 2/1
I have the utmost respect to TTech now for coming to open the "new" stadium. It was the most fun gameday experience I've had since the 2005 playoffs.
Maybe, over time, the other TX teams will get over themselves and come to San Marcos but I think it will be after we prove ourselves "worthy"
I checked out the TX St facilities when I was in San Marcos. You guys have a beautiful stadium. It is only a matter of time before you guys have a winning FBS program that gets home and home match ups with the schools you mentioned.
Who knows what the future will bring. Maybe we are to be conference mates again. I did not get to make the trip to Louisiana Tech for a return game.
