Well that saves a PTO day
When can we buy tickets to this game?
Just saw the ezu/ncsu opener will be 8/28. Maybe that’s why the mayo game date was in flux and ended up on 8/29.
Seating Update - seats in the Club A2 & Club B2 price levels have reached capacity.
clt says club seats are going fast for the appy game
So pissed….I have been so busy this week, I forgot to log in and buy tickets. No club level seats left so I had to buy lowers.
It’s okay. It’s good for the Patricians to mingle with the Plebs form time to time.

Tough schedule for the foreseeable future.
Do we play Navy at Navy next year?
do you know what the break up fee would be if Ole Miss were to cancel? Which I think the SEC is going to push them to do. It would be great if we got a break up fee and then scheduled another P4(non SEC) for an appearance fee. That’s how you make a dent in the stadium expansion budget
clt wants ole miss in the Rich. biggest home game yet!
we can show them how to properly tailgate
Probably not. We played at Navy last season. My guess is we will play the inverse of the 2025 American schedule next year so at Rice, USF, Army, at Temple, at UNT, ECU, at UTSA, and Tulane. If that is how it shakes out the home schedule next season will be a monster considering we host Ole Miss.
I am not sure how the AC does the scheduling, but we have had USF and Tulane for the past few years so wonder if they rotate? I have no idea, but now that we are in the AC, every year is going to be tough, so I wish we only had one P4 team.
Ole Miss cancelled their game with USC (iirc) to allow for the additional conference game. Our games with them are still on.
