Can't we just find other doormats?

Here's a few that come to mind:

Indiana
Iowa State
Baylor
Duke
Stanford
Virginia
Syracuse
Washington State

Hell those are all BCS schools too and would probably jump at a shot to play an SEC school.

You're also telling me that we can't get a home and home with a MAC school? Even that is a better conference than CUSA.

I would rather lose or beat any of the teams above than USM.

Any of those schools would see an SEC team on their schedule and get fired up for the game. To us, it's just another crappy team from a lower conference. To them, it's a chance to prove that they can play with the big boys in the SEC.

because everybody is going to get fired up for us just because we're in the SEC.

 

[SLUdog]

for these teams too. Having said that, I understand the SEC argument. La Tech was playing LSU by proxy when they played us. I'll never get over us losing that game after getting ahead 14-3. Thanks Croom. USM-MSU adds another intense rivalry game...essentially a 9th conference game. We should schedule no team that we think is even with us right now. Memphis should be the best team we play.
