Issue is we now have very little time to find a Power 4 team to get on the schedule

I bet we schedule one of the new PAC 12 teams or Big 12 teams. The requirement is P5 not P4. That includes the Pac-12.

So Tulane most likely, they're already scheduled

I think Memphis would be awesome. Even there, it would be basically a hone game and at Oxford, it would be a sellout. Memphis owes us for even having a football program. If they get in to the PAC, we would be stupid not to reach out to them first.

No it wouldn’t. The less TV time we give them, the better.

I say this with ever fiber of my being.....



frick Memphis. This doesn't benefit us whatsoever. At least playing at WF helps get our name and recognition in the area. I talked to a lot of randoms in the area and they were all curious about our team.

Same. We need to treat them like we treat Southern Miss.

It's a no-win situation for the Rebs playing Memphis.

If we win, we get nothing out of it because they're Memphis and we should've beaten them anyways. If we lose, it's the end of the fricking world.

What P4/5 team will even be available on such short notice?

At a glance, the following teams have an opening:

Cal
Oregon State
SMU
Baylor
NC State

And I'm sure plenty of others. So there's options, just do we pay to get one home game or find a home/away situation

What TA said. It also brings Memphis more exposure playing us on TV, etc, etc. It’s not just a no-win, it’s best case a losing scenario with the potential for disaster like in 2015.
