Around half of the SEC has played at Memphis in the past. I know State, Ole Miss, UT, Vandy, Bama and Arkansas have


Yep, that's why I didn't include it. Tulane is similar.

Yes. And we added it the spring before I think since we had to rework our non schedule with Arkansas becoming a conference game.

Maybe a tropical storm that was gonna hit Ruston and miss Shreveport? Something like that. But that was before Manziel was Manziel and Mike Evans was Mike Evans and I remember sitting in my seat watching them play and was thinking, am I crazy or are these guys REALLY good? And that was a good La Tech team that year as well. A Tech receiver had 21 catches for 200 and something yards that game. I think it's the Patton guy that plays for San Francisco now.

News just broke that Arkansas will be playing @ Colorado State in '18. In our defense Michigan backed out of our deal and we have struggled to find anyone to play that soon.
