Message: [QUOTE="Fairfield Fan, post: 3412886, member: 6911"] It's not what it was. It simply doesn't mean what it once did. Once upon a time, it was the clash of titans: the two greatest teams in the nation and the two greatest coaches in the nation. That is now down to the greatest coach in the nation and the most storied program in the country. Kelly is a fine up-and-coming coach. But there are other up-and-comers that deserve series: Walz at Louisville, for example. We could schedule very meaningful and exciting match-ups with Stanford, Oregon, Oregon State, DePaul, South Carolina, Mississippi State, LSU, UCLA, Gonzaga or Arizona. Or we could go for home-and-homes with a mix of strong teams on the cusp- Northwestern, Ohio State, Princeton, Michigan or Florida Gulf Coast. Simply put, Tennessee is one of many good teams we could add to the non-conference schedule. As Bill Murray put it in the movie "Meatballs": "It just doesn't matter!" [/QUOTE]
