There was a thread on AUNation about Colorado only buying up about 1300 tickets and no fan interest whatsoever.  BG chimed in with a comment about Shreveport not being a "Destination city" and then said if they were in Nashville, he'd be all over that.  Great place, party town etc.

Someone repsonded with something to the effect of, "You can only hope for a great year in 08'!"

By the way, if Troy hadn't sucked so bad in attendance their last game, they'd be going to Shreveport instead of the vaunted Tahd.  Actually, wouldn't a UA/Troy matchup be cool.  Watching the Trojans wack the Mullets would be insane.

...that was me with the comment after BG's Nashville lovefest. 

I said: "you can always dream of next year!"
