	This has been an ongoing discussion and I would love to hear your takes. Most major universities across the nation play an in-state subordinate and the University of Arkansas doesn't...What's your take?

	I know i will catch flack for having an elitist (i think that's how you spell it) attitude, but i have NO desire to play a smaller school because the UofA has nothing to gain, and EVERYTHING to lose...I know ASU fans/alum will have a contrasting view which is understandable, but that's just how i feel. I would rather play top notch universities like USC/Texas than ASU, sorry...and i know ASU played Texas tough last year in Austin, but how many times out of 10 will that happen?! Not many...Until ASU is competitive against some of the out of conference teams they play on a consistent basis, i don't want to see that waste of time on a Saturday, that's just me....

	If the Hogs can play UL Monroe seven times in the next 10 years why could we not play ASU. It would keep the money in the state and be a lot better show in Little Rock than UL Monroe.

	Good Post RazorbackG!! Why should another state benefit when we can keep the money here! I believe it could become a really good rivalry! ASU could gain some attention by playing a game like that every year! I believe they played Texas last year! Could boost there program and that would be good for this state! I would still be rooting for the HOGS but I think it would be interesting.
