February 26, 201115 yr If that's the schedule, I don't think Bowling is in their future this year... The amount of home games does help, though.
February 26, 201115 yr Author If that's the schedule, I don't think Bowling is in their future this year... The amount of home games does help, though. I think the only tentative part of that schedule is the date of the WKU game. The opponents are set.
February 27, 201115 yr I say the team surprises and goes 8-4. Losses to Florida, LSU, Georgia, and South Carolina.
February 27, 201115 yr Can someone please explain the reasoning for two Kentucky schools to play a game in the state of Tennessee? Why give another state all the revenue?
February 27, 201115 yr Author Can someone please explain the reasoning for two Kentucky schools to play a game in the state of Tennessee? Why give another state all the revenue? It's a Western home game and their stadium only seats a little over 22k. Western gets the bulk of the revenue for the game, therefore it makes sense to play a home game in the biggest stadium close to their campus. If UK fans travel like they normally do, ticket sales alone could be more than 4 times what UK would pay them to play the game in Lexington.
February 27, 201115 yr Yeah but the state of Tennessee gets all the revenue from hotel rooms, restaurants, and other expenses. I don't like it.
February 27, 201115 yr Author Yeah but the state of Tennessee gets all the revenue from hotel rooms, restaurants, and other expenses. I don't like it. Don't know what to tell you there, big guy, but the school never benefits from those anyway. It's about WKU building their program right now. That money IS coming back to Kentucky.
