Please TCU and Houston.
The schools around Dallas are excellent - academically as well as sports wise. Would love to challenge all the tech guys in texas to come out to the games. I could take my grand kids to the games

Relevant parts from the article in 2016:

"Lastly, Tulane has canceled its 2018 game with Tech at Bobby Dodd Stadium. Tulane is contractually obligated to pay Tech $300,000 for the cancellation. That leaves one game remaining in the four-game series begun in 2014, a 2019 game in New Orleans. Tech is considering canceling that game.

Tech senior associate athletic director John David Wicker said that he is close to scheduling guarantee games, likely against FCS opponents, for 2018 and 2019.

The changes were made for multiple reasons. Tulane bought out the 2018 game because it was offered a game against Ohio State that year. That change prompted Wicker to look to South Florida to move the series, a switch that proved beneficial for USF, also. The Notre Dame game was moved at the request of ACC and Notre Dame, and the Bowling Green State game was also involved in that switch.

Sometimes you just can tell who's playing without a scorecard!

South Carolina would fit that bill nicely.

Yep My daughter went to graduate school at USCe said that she could see and hear Williams Brice Stadium from her apartment and the entire city became a giant party. She HATED it! Funny thing is that I took her to her first Tech game about the same time and we had a blast. She loved the Tech traditions and amazingly seemed to enjoy the game. Different strokes for different folks I guess.

Since that Article came out, we have signed a FCS for 2017 Jax State... G5 for 2018 Bowling Green and in 2019 a FCS in The Citadal...

We have a 2018 FCS opening and now a P5 or G5 opening in 2019...as a season tix holder I do not want two FCS games in the same season (2019, has happen before). I would rather the GTAA either move up the Ole Miss series like we did with the USF series or take the money from Tulane and pay a G5 team in a scheduling bind to come to Bobby Dodd... New Mexico St, UAB, Coastal Carolina or Liberty....

We will see what happens
