Off the top of my head the following SEC teams played at WVU in the past 10 years: LSU, Auburn, Missouri, Mississippi State.
WVU's stadium is bigger than Vandy (obviously) and the same size as Kentucky, Ole Miss, and Miss St.
LSU damned the experience for not having enough tickets and the way they were treated.

Auburn much of the same.

Missouri doesn't even sell out their own stadium, so N/A.
Mississippi State doesn't have a contingent that travels, or a national fanbase like we do.
Point remains, it would be a terrible home and home for us. As that one thread pointed out, we're playing them because we want Charlotte exposure. We don't need any exposure in West Virginia of all places.
Edit: I see the white trash symbol under your avatar now, so NVM. Thought you were trying to actually make a point and not troll.
No trolling here friend. I have a Bachelors from UTK and a Masters from WVU. Lived in Morgantown for a number of years and also worked for WVU. FWIW I was also employed by UT while a student. So let's not mistake trolling with sharing first hand experience from both schools and being objective. I'll excuse the white trash comment as innocent ignorance.

Your original point was that the stadium is too small for SEC schools. I replied stating the stadium is bigger or the same size at 4 SEC stadiums. Which, by the way, the last time UT played at each of those 4 stadiums they lost. So stadium size is irrelevant. I look at OOC games as the great match ups we can see against teams that UT doesn't play every year, not how great the ratings will be in X market.
The home team is not obligated to provide every away team fan with a ticket. If you can't get a ticket from the away allotment, buy a ticket on the secondary market.
