I was around for the last 5-6 years of the rivalry. It was, at one point, an intense rivalry that had become basically a second HC game for us. The last time JSU won was in 1990, so they went 11 years without winning. It wasn't much of a rivalry at the end. We moved on, moving up to DI in 2000. We have established new rivalries with our conference mates and the in state rivalry with 🚫 gets better each time we have a contest with them. If you don't believe that it is a rivalry, find a video of yesterday's BB game and watch the intensity with which it is played and listen to the fire the students brought to the game. In addition to 🚫, we have a strong rivalry with stAte, GATA, App, Coastal, and will have a strong one with JMU. We don't need JSU to provide us a rivalry and I'm fine if we don't play them. If they want to play us, let them establish themselves in CDOA and then move up to the 'Belt the next time there's an opening.

It'll be a waste of a Saturday and a game I'm completely uninterested in if I'm being honest. Was Birmingham-Southern not available? Or Oglethorpe College?

JSU beat a 6-6 Louisiana in the New Orleans Bowl, and they now think they're world-beaters.
Lawwwwd.

If it's a conference DOA Thursday night game, then I may not be there. I'm super busy at work right now.

Let's schedule four games, sweep them and then hold the all-time series advantage. Selfishly, a game at JSU is only a 40-minute drive for me versus a 3-hour drive.

Jax St draws pretty well and I'm sure the fans would make the drive. I would love to get that rivalry going again. They will always be the school I hate. When you flush a toilet in Troy it goes to the drinking fountains at Jax St. Whup Jax St

Why waste our time digging up this rotten corpse of a rivalry with a CUSA school when we could rekindle our UAb rivalry and have an ongoing matchup with a AAC school? Do we, as a school, want to be more closely associated with Jax State or UAb? I know, it's a vomit inducing thought, but you are known for who your rivals are.

Do we also want to be hypocritical? We've all dogged Alabama and Auburn all these years about being too scared to play Troy. I don't want us to be like those schools and not play an in-state school or former rival just because we felt like we've moved past them.

We didn't tell them to join a conference that also includes Spain Park High School, that was their decision.

We should play every school in the state! Troy, Jax State and UAB fans could easily drive to the games and I expect they would.
