Thats what I was talking about in another thread! We should be playing a regional school every year. BC, Cuse, Pitt, Temple or UConn. One of those every year with a P5 from outside the region and then a MAC or CUSA/SB school.

No thanks. I don't see much value in letting these "former rivals" play games in NJ that aid their recruiting here. #fencethegarden
I'd rather do home/homes with southern ACC schools in areas we want to recruit.

You can do both. Also only like 4 of the 14 ACC schools help with recruiting and at least two of them wont play us. Miami, Clemson, FSU and GT. Playing regional rivals helps sell tickets. You can play Cuse and an SEC school for two years then BC and a Big XII school for two years and so on. We should be playing 2 P5 OOC games a year now. From what you posted it sounds like you only want one a year.

No, I like 2 P5 games. I like our current series with the PAC-12. I'd like to play more SEC games, Big 12, and the southern ACC schools (including the ones you listed and the VA/NC schools). I just don't want the likes of Cuse, Pitt, and UConn coming to Piscataway, or us going there. IMO, they're dead to me.

I'd love any series vs BC, for selfish reasons...

I'd also have little problem playing former rivals, esp Army, Temple, Pitt, and Navy. All places we should be making appearances in. Can do Navy H/A and UMD A/H. Temple or Pitt H/A and PSU A/H.
