I guess it's hard to sell Death Valley as a tough place to play when the toughest non-conference game is Troy and Syracuse. I guess the days of seeing an 07 Va Tech come to Tiger Stadium are over.

We have a home/home with Texas coming up in 2019/2020, plus UCLA and Arizona State after that.

In general though, both teams will probably come out ahead financially playing a single neutral site game and then a rent-a-win home game.

At the start of that game, it was one of the loudest games I've been to. The student section was nuts. Looking back though, I wish I'd have gone to more games as a student.
