Lee Adams Posted November 2, 2018 Report Share Posted November 2, 2018 So this likely means money,no bowl. Can't now assume Zips are LIKELY to win a game other than BG. Suppose they can try to treat the SC game as their 'bowl' game. Will be interesting to see what happens post season if they only win 5. Guess it depends on where Williams is at with this bunch. John Green sure as hell isn't going to stick his fingers in this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilltopper Posted November 3, 2018 Report Share Posted November 3, 2018 This is better than a bowl game. We play a quality opponent and we get to keep all the money. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HT, do you have a source for the #KeepAlltheMoney story? I can't locate that info on the interwebs! If so, is this a 3-way deal with Nebraska -- the Huskers keep the $$ from our (not) game with them, and USC hosts Nebraska in the future? I just looked at S Carolina's sked -- they have 5 wins with games @Florida and @Clemson, BUT they play Chattanooga at home, so SHOULD be at least 6-6 = bowl eligible without the extra game...

zippy5 Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 I think he meant vs a bowl game where there is a revenue split with the MAC 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to presume Nebraska is going to take this as a clear reason to not pay Akron. Do we get that $1 million from Columbia? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z.I.P. Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 Also, while I can't link to it right now, a guy named Bonagura fron ESPN.com has Akron playing Georgia Southern in the Camellia Bowl! ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They cancelled their game with us, by rescheduling a game not with us FIRST they should still be liable for paying us IMHO. Akron only put SC on the schedule because Nebraska had already found another game (and were probably scared to play Akron). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
