Will this game be in Jackson?

Funny. FBS football in Jackson is done. The state gave that stadium to Jackson State University a few years ago. The administration at JSU is notoriously incompetent. The high school state championships aren't even played there anymore. Other than 5 or 6 JSU games a year, that stadium sits empty.

Oh, and JSU has been begging for a new stadium for years. Once they let Veteran's Memorial decay to unsafe conditions, I'm sure the state will cave and give them money for one. But for now, it's just a decaying relic of a previous era:

I don't see the problem with playing ULL in the Super Dome. Gets exposure in South LA. Fun trip.

Now...the @Troy, @USA, @UMass, etc....those are pretty funny.

62k fans split in half at Memorial Stadium was a unique atmosphere during the Eggbowl days in Jackson. Jackson has changed so much since those times.
