Dream Series.

[DontMissHim]

What would your dream series be? (Series as a Home and Away). I am going to say anyone but OSU...simply because I Imagine many people would say that so I wanted some other opinions.

Would you like to play ND and take it to Kelly? Play a Storied program like Michigan? Maybe you would like to see UC on the blue grass and play Boise State? Who would it be--whats your dream match up and why?

For me- I would love to see UC and Michigan. Simply because I am a big Michigan fan but I think it would be cool to see UC play at the Big House. (Who, for any other Michigan fan, is going to be playing ND under the lights at the Big House this year. While that may not seem like a big deal to most- Michigan has never played a night game at the Big House. The fact they are this year has many traditional fans upset but I think it will be sweet)

Actually, that will be next year. They play at ND this year.

UC and Miami of Florida. Two similar programs - urban, came up from nothing, powerful offenses, flashy teams...

Gotta be ND vs UC. New BCS coach vs the Mentor.

UCLA would be solid...west coast action. They are always fun to watch as well.

Auburn or S. Carolina. Get into more of the south and those states.

OSU is not the answer because we have played them.

They answer is The U. I am not sure why but something about seeing the U at Nippert would be awesome.

To answer this question properly, I have to look at all the teams that I hate (and yes, hate is a strong word...that's why I used it).

Teams I hate (not in conference - suck it WVU, Pitt, and Louisville)
1. Ohio State
2. ND
3. Michigan State
4. Florida
5. LSU
6. Penn State
7. USC
8. Texas

Ok, that's a good list to start with. I would add UK, but they blow. I really don't care about Miami (FL). I understand why some people would like to play that game but I think they are thinking back to the Jimmy Johnson Hurricanes and not the Miami of today. I don't care about them anymore.

I think it is important that the team we play for this dream series resonates with the kind of recruits we are going after. Who are we consistantly battling for recruits? OSU, ND, UM, MSU and to a lesser extent PSU. Of course, USC and Florida like to poke their heads into our backyard for any 5 star recruits. Douchebags! I don't hate UM so they aren't on my list (though it would be cool to see the Bearcats win at the Big House. Unfortunately, that win would be close to meaningless right now with how bad UM has been recently. We already play OSU (though they are scared to play anywhere but the stadium formerly known as the horseshoe). So, my pick would be ND. I would love to beat the shit out of them in front of Touchdown Jesus and make him cover his eyes. Then, when they come to Nippert (and yes, we should play them at Nippert so all the douche ND fans in Cincy can't get tickets) we should treat them like child molesters and beat them down!!

That is all.

Don't hold anything back now.

It might help us recruit as the game would be televised nationally, but what about Texas Tech....two high flying teams and hopefully would get us some nibbles out of a powerhouse state. Not exactly a dream series, but fun.

You stole my thunder. My dad is an Auburn grad and I would love to play them. My mom is a SC grad and my family is still in Columbia. Those were going to be my two answers.

I like your list. One other team I would add is Boston College. Not because I think BC is a great football team, it's just that we are constantly seeing GCL (read St. X) kids going there every year. If we laid the smack down on them at Nippert, I think it would go a long way. Regarding Michigan State, it would be great to beat Dantonio's behind and for him to see a packed Nippert.

Another name I would throw out there for other reasons would be Texas Tech. Can you image the offensive numbers that would be put up by the two teams?
