Yes. Been several years though. Been a few times especially when Pete and AJ was coaching. Haven’t been since then.

We can cross that bridge when it comes up......It may be just fine depending on the opponent and the weather....
(Besides JSU....what other SWAC EAST school will bring more than 5000 fans to PV....)

Right. Although alcorn will travel well as well. The Alabama schools wont. The bottomline, is if PV or any other school earned the privilege of hosting then that's exactly what's gonna happen if this is the model we are going with. Deal with it. Go watch it streamed in the Babydome or something if you didnt get your ticket. tailgating and the on campus experience would be amazing.

I wouldnt worry about it.. LOL
They know its 3-4 small stadiums in the SWAC so if we go with the home model, we just have to deal with it.

exactly...we have endzone hills in our stadium just like Alcorn..look at an aerial view of Louis crews and we have plenty of space....that's why the MCC might go home and home in the future if many alums on both sides get their wish

AAMU has a nice stadium, but it can't handle the numbers for the MCC.

A home and home MCC would not make sense IMO. 25K max in the stadium... plus only receiving revenue from that 25k every other year as opposed to every year. Then would fans travel to Huntsville or Montgomery when both teams are mediocre? They ALWAYS show up in Birmingham.

a strong contingent of alumni from ASU & AAMU feel it's time especially with a "55k seat stadium with no tailgate area" being built with no consideration of past Classic attendance numbers. There are other issues but this is one of the main concerns and driving force for a possible move. IMO fans will support the move to both cities because its A&M vs State for state bragging rights and revenue will be used for a good cause i.e. stadium expansion,renovations, etc.
