Title: Utah State announced as 2014 opponent

Season opener, according to Ralph Russo. I'm guessing that it's going to be the Sept. 6 home game before the trip to Oklahoma, as Chattanooga will be the season opener on 8/30/14.

Apparently Utah State was already on the schedule (for November) and is simply being moved, which shows how much I know.  :biggrin: Fortenberry says it will be 8/30/13. Is Chattanooga being taken off the schedule? If so, good.

We're going to be ridiculously young next year, so USU might be a pretty scary opening game.  Didn't they almost beat Auburn a a couple years ago?

BTW, I hate playing the 1aa teams as much as anyone, but if we have to do it, might as well stick with the state schools.    Martin got a nice payday a couple years back, AP is getting it this year, so why not give the same opportunity to UTC, Tech, and whomever else wants it.  Better them than Montana or WKU. :dunno:

WKU has been FBS since '08.  :loco:

I'd rather not play an FCS team, period. PERIOD. Those games suck.
