Great job, Southern! Two attractive match-ups against the MEAC. A not so far, regional FBS in Houston.

Think Southern can fill that Sept. 20 date? Seems you guys would be able to get someone for a 12th game (money maker)...

I think they're going to stick with 11. Not a lot of prospects for that date.

Visiting the Cajuns in ’09

Southern will start the 2009 season playing the University of Louisiana at Lafayette in Cajun Field in Lafayette.

The teams will play Sept. 5, 2009, with Southern getting a guarantee of $110,000 as well as 6,000 tickets to sell.

SU Athletic Director Greg LaFleur said, by being allowed to keep the proceeds from the tickets, that Southern could stand to make around $200,000 from the game.

With Louisiana-Lafayette and the seven-game Southwestern Athletic Conference schedule in the fold, Southern has three more games to add in its 11-game 2009 schedule.

I think that Cal Poly may be trying to find a game for Nov. 8th. Cal Poly already has six home games under contract for '08 and are looking for a 12th game so I think they would be willing to travel in '08 for a return game in '09. Southern would be a great addition to Cal Poly's schedule. What do you think Jag fans?

I'm open to anything, but I'm not the schedule maker. I don't really think they're looking for a 12th game.

I only see one MEAC on the schedule. Who's the other?

FAMU is the only MEAC team on our slate Houston C-USA, Tenn St. is OVC

I would much rather keep the Sept open date, it gives the player a chance to get there legs back

Simple slip-up...ooops! xoopsx

Do like the ULL-Southern match-up in 2009. That's a winnable game for Southern. It proved to be winnable for the Pokes of McNeese...
