Schedules are made years in advance, when Michigan bought out their game with us, it left us looking for an opponent with an open date that would work with our schedule.


Thanks for the history lesson grandpa

We already pay close to a million per to these lower tier programs to play us


Exactly. Huge waste of money. Especially when we lose to them anyway

Well if they jump off a bridge, we should to. Also, lots of schools mix in a quality opponent or two. Or at least play a shite in state school for some local interest

We play so few quality games in Fayetteville. Why do 20-30% of them have to be shitty?

Suck it up and enjoy the games Fayetteville gets because LR is going to be getting at least one marquee opponent for the foreseeable future with our boosters. As piofeet says LR>NWA

Guess Arkansas couldn't snag one of the opening weekend neutral site games one of the years. :/


Under .500 last five years and coming off a 4-8 season isn’t what the suits look for on opening weekend.
