JACKSON – It's
that time of year again for college football and with the 2008
"Backyard Brawl" against cross-town rival Mississippi
College just weeks away, it's time to start
purchsing tickets to fill Harper Davis Field for the season-opener
on Saturday, Sept. 6 at 7 p.m.
For
the first time since the rivalry renewed in 2000, the rival
Choctaws outsold the Majors in pregame ticket sales in 2007
by over 600 tickets. With the Mississippi Sports Council hosting
the event for an eighth-straight season, both schools receive
$3 of each $10 ticket sold prior to
the game that will go directly back towards the
athletic department. All tickets sold the day of the game move
to $15.
