Re: Tickets

The five game pack this year is extremely disappointing, it’s not the game of the month anymore as they left out three of the best home games with Alabama, Davidson, and Dayton all not included. So PC, VCU & W Kentucky aren’t three of the best home games? PC is the best game hands down and VCU ...
