Okay ... help me out because I left in 1985 ... I'm not aware of any JSU tradition around Labor Day. I know JSU plays Hampton in Orlando this year, but as far as I know this is the first time.
These classics were not as en vogue when I was in school as they are now. Aside from the Bayou and Florida classics, I don't recall anything along that line. The other games were HUGE campus rivalries.
I dislike the idea that many HBCUs move their games to (mostly) Midwest and Northeast cities and call them classics. Maybe the universities need the cash. As long as the fans travel and the teams get paid this trend will continue.
When did the SU/GSU game move to the Super Dome? I don't remember them playing in Nawlins when I was in college.
Anyway, don't hate that other schools are on the gravy train. It was bound to happen sooner or later.
Say what?
