WKU's stadium holds 22,000. I think that would have sufficed.
It seems similar (except crowd size) to the Toledo-Ohio State game from a year or two ago...in Cleveland. Someone on the broadcast mentioned that WKU was about an hour from Nashville, so why not just play the game in Bowling Green, Kentucky? Just because you are in the SEC, Kentucky, doesn't mean your football team draws.
Play those non-AQ's on their own home fields if you sign a 2 for 1 (although I believe I heard that this is a 4 game series with both WKU home games being in Nashville.)
