We wouldn't both make the playoffs.
And chances are, IF we make it, we'll go straight to Harrisonburg. Same with Elon.

In all likelihood, it would be JMU. But the NCAA doesn't always follow that pattern. Money talks with Indy.

I mean, I guess we could host Wofford or something. I just know that SC State draws huge crowds and is putting in a bid, and that App and JMU will both get seeds. That's a lot of local home games for them to ship us to.

Home games are all about the money - you want the game here - you can have it no matter how big your stadium. They just want their guarantees:)
