Never have and still don't get the deal with not scheduling Troy. It's an OOC game you should win handily 44 out of 51 times, or 92.556% of the time. It's an OOC game that people in this State would actually watch with interest. It's an OOC game that would pack the stadium. But I guess Alabama A & M or San Jose State is a much more attractive match up. Maybe Samford again. Oh I know....let's get a 5 year deal with Idaho.
If a D1 program like Auburn doesn't beat Troy, there's bigger things to worry about than the stigma of getting beat by Troy. Schedule those bastards the way Bama won't.
