Brand new stadium. 6 Saturday home games with a matchup against Southern Miss smack dab in the middle of October and a game against McNeese which always draws a crowd. Should be a cake walk marketing this season. Should be. We’ll see.

I see what you did there, but both of those games are at Cajun Field this season .

Southern Miss game should be a good one. Glad we get them at home on a Saturday. They should bring a solid crowd with them

[LaGrid]

All Saturdays should increase season ticket sales unless the Sun belt no longer assigns midweek games in advance.
