Blue & Gold Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 Hopefully we’re the ones who won’t want that game rescheduled as we’ll hopefully be in the MAC Championship Game. On to Detroit! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy5 Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 Looking more and more like neither team will be needing that game for bowl eligibility 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zipsoutsider Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 Looks like NU is finalizing a deal to play Northern Alabama on Oct 27. That did not take long to settle after we beat Northewestern. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZachTheZip Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 Are there any FBS teams out there that had their game cancelled last week from the hurricane that also share a bye week with us? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zippy5 Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 On a serious note, i believe ECU/UNC was washed out, and I'd love to play either 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy5 Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 Actually that was ECU/VT. No thanks to VT. ECU would be a nice matchup however 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy5 Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 UNC was washed out with UCF. So I guess my original post still stands. Forgive my rambling while I looked up schedules Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pray to god they need us for a 6th win in week 14. Their savior true freshman QB is already out. Cry baby Nebraska fans who want to talk smack about us deserve. Happy Frost homecoming. Paging @Zipmeister for his thoughts. Your claim that Colorado has finished in last place in their division is absurd. So far after 3 weeks this season Colorado is ranked somewhere around 32 (depending on which service you like), Akron is ranked around 68 and Nebraska is ranked around 130.

That did not take long to settle after we beat Northewestern. Northern Alabama is available only because Iowa State bought out their contract with Incarnate Word last week. Iowa State will play Incarnate Word on December 1st as our 12th game because our cancelled game was with an FCS team. The contract with Incarnate Word includes an escape clause if we are playing in the Big 12 championship or they make the FCS playoffs.

roopride Posted September 20, 2018 Report Share Posted September 20, 2018 I dont see any way we dont get paid. Both sides may try and leverage/negotiate some aspect of the deal, but in the end we'll get paid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

72 Roo Posted September 21, 2018 Report Share Posted September 21, 2018 Nebraska's position on this astounds me. They are making noise about negotiating a settlement with a straight Face? Give me a break! They did not pay back any tickets to their fans but they won't pay us? This is the same Nebraska that gets $38 million from the B1G for their share of the Big Ten TV contract alone, which is exclusive of all other football revenue i.e. ticket sales, merchandise, loge rentals, advertising, concessions, parking, etc. Shame on them. Shame on AD Moos. Shame on their President. This was once a highly respected program. Not now. Don't give 'em a single concession Larry Williams! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
