Mike Stuben Posted January 8 Group: Member Topic Count: 74 Content Count: 2,468 Reputation: 1,139 Days Won: 19 Joined: 04/08/2012 Share Posted January 8 I'm curious to see who on our future schedules buys out gams. 1. I can see Notre Dame buying out the game in Tampa (or both games). I think stadium size is an issue, and we may have to agree to Ray Jay to keep that game. They want to play in front of their fans, and will want a bunch of tickets. 2. NC State has already told us they may have to buy out the game, per ACC requirements. (which may lead to Miami and Louisville buying out too) - as the ACC has told their member not to play any more road games at G5 schools. Of course, the ACC has bigger issues to worry about. 3. I'm not sure we play both games at Alabama if we keep getting better, I could see them buying out the last one. This list obviously changes if our conference changes.

I would be surprised if the Notre Dame game is not moved to RJS. I don’t see them playing at our new OCS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should play C. Fla. in San Juan in week 0 (every year, some years, whenever). Playing a game off the continental 48, allows you to play 13 regular season games, and play in week 0. By playing in San Jaun we can both play an extra game, and it is relatively cheap to get there from Florida. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep wondering if we are lucky enough to get an invite to a new conference before the groundbreaking if they don't bump up capacity before it is too late. Nothing dramatic, maybe just get it into the low 40s. (I agree, building then adding on right away seems like a bad plan) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
