It's not 'the stadium' that matters Dale, it's whether the UA wants to remain a 'statewide' program or become just a regional draw and open the door for folks to become fans of other schools instead.

Heck, for a large part of the state there are 3 SEC schools as close or closer than NWA. South Arkansas is already overrun with LSU folks, LSU gear even being sold in Walmart stores and a local drugstore.

I'm always surprised by the number of LSU decals and merchandise I see in SW Arkansas. But I also forget that LSU is only about 30 minutes further away than UofA.

Is this why Nebraska plays two games a year in Omaha?

Stores are in the business of making money?

I'm shocked.

You can find Ms. school and Memphis gear in West Memphis area Walmarts. OU/OSU gear in Ft. Fresh area stores.

This might be the most retarded thing I have ever seen posted. If this statement is even remotely legit, the UA program has bigger issues than playing a game in WMS.
