bhambruiser Posted August 20, 2004 Share Posted August 20, 2004 Also of note, C-USA is gonna have two divisions and a Championship game next year too....ok I guess that doesn't rank up there with this announcement, but hey they tried.I think Jacksonville is a good neutral site, although Miami and FSU will have a big advantage since it is in Florida.

jrodsep Posted August 21, 2004 Share Posted August 21, 2004 In my opinion, Ericsson Stadium (or whatever the Carolina Panthers stadium is named) will be a great site for the game also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac the Knife Posted August 22, 2004 Share Posted August 22, 2004 There was really little doubt where it was going from about May on. Jax put together a whale of a deal to land the game, and Charlotte just didn't seem to be that bent on competing with them, taking a 'wait and see' approach at least for the first two games.But if I'm not mistaken the deal has an option for 2 more years, so it might be 2008 before anyone else even gets a shot at it.
