Last year’s game was a closer game, but we still ended up losing. Years ago when MTSU was in the Ohio Valley, this was a pretty intense rivalry. Obviously in the 80s and 90s we had some really good teams and they had good teams. I guess it’s time for us to do our part to bring it back… I think it’s a game we’ll try to play every year.”
