Same reason they wouldn't play us. The whole "Ole Miss is scared" bull shite is overplayed. We've told them we would play them but we're not traveling to a C-USA stadium. They stopped negotiations then.

There was no CUSA back when Ole Miss stopped playing USM. At that time Ole Miss had a rather small stadium as well. Basically it was a no win scenario for Ole Miss. Ole Miss was starting to lose the games against USM and it was a game they were "supposed" to win. If they beat USM, no big deal, but if they keep losing to them, well then it is a big deal. I for one am glad they quit playing.
