Which OOC G5 Team Would You Want To Play The Most?

Unread post by hotrod2001 » Mon Oct 02, 2017 8:08 pm

Just out of curiosity, which team out there would you want to play in Boone which is an out of conference G5 member? And one not named ECU or Charlotte.

For me, I would personally love to have either Army or Air Force come to town. Yes, they aren't exactly G5 powerhouses but they're special with the military connection and the respect that comes with them (Air Force however tends to have good years). I also think they would bring a strong fan base with them as well which would make KBS rock pretty good. I remember seeing Air Force play in the Georgia Dome against GSU a few years ago and they actually packed their fan base in pretty well, and definitely a lot better than what the Panthers managed to draw.

I'm not sure if it's just me but I've always thought that hosting one of the military teams would be a special event, maybe we'd even have a return of the American flag "A" which I always thought was a great logo.

So, if you were the AD and in charge of making a match up with a team we normally wouldn't play, who would you try to schedule?

Another vote for Boise and the schedules line up... personally think it's been agreed upon already and just not announced...

Marshall was/is a big one for me too.

Otherwise, agree on Boise and the service academies. Also San Diego State.

I would like to see them schedule games at opponents that offer a chance for either team to win. In my mind that brings us to:
Southern Carolina
Marshall
Virginia
Arkansas
Ole Miss
Pitt
Vandy

Hmmm. Brings up an interesting question... Is Liberty a G-5 school since they are independent? :D
