So often our non-MAC road games are with teams on par or a step above us and we're trying to do two things at once - beat a competitive team AND learn how to win on the road. 2 Quote

Honestly, I wasn't disappointed by it. It just jumped out to me. The alternative would likely be paying a Bucknell caliber team ~$70K to come to the JAR, which wouldn't really excite me anyways. I suppose it's just an extra $70K we can spend elsewhere. Quote
