The best part is, Rick George enlisted Mike Bohn's help in scheduling a replacement game and he got us a 2-for-1 with Stetson. In 2015 and 2016 we will be traveling to Florida and playing Thursday games. You're welcome.

No, but the Buffs would get some pub down here and Stetson would get a little payday.
I think we'll end up playing the band. Good luck guys.
If JE were still coach we'd be getting 1.5 points in Vegas.
that might convince me to make the cross-country trip.

I want the home & home with Lucchese. Daddy needs some new boots.
damn am you gringo! Mullet is a plentiful native fish in Florida. Sure, it's a haircut and a lifestyle, but when smoked and mixed with proper quantities of cream cheese, onion, hot sauce and garlic it makes a helluva dip.

That is a cool place-in Durango. I remember traveling to Durango with a buddy a loooong time ago and going to check out the college. In fact, my visit to Ft. Lewis is what inspired me to apply to a Ph.D. at CU. I was like is it for real that you could be a prof at a uni like that and hang out in the mountains. Sign me up!
Truth be told, I didn't realize they actually had a football team though!
So who the F*K are we going to play. Hendo has a post quoting the NCAA that we will probably need to seek a waiver to get someone to play us and that is not going to be easy b/c everyone has their schedules in stone for several years and want their bye weeks.
Uhh bro, I was born in Durango and live about 20 minutes from there lol. They are D2 tho, pretty sure their coach is that crazy bastard from Arkansas last year lol, not positive on that. Believe Barnett was there at one time as well. It is a cool little town tho, I spend quite a bit of time there.

Crap. I totally forgot John L. Smith was coaching down there.
They probably wouldn't want to give CU a game anyway, after CU stole Barnett from them back in the day... :lol:

I actually hope for Coach Mac's sake they get San Diego State instead
I agree but I thought I read somewhere that SDSU had already declined.
Can we sked the Belgian co-ed team that has Cody H as it's QB?
I think SDSU makes more sense. They very well could have declined, then said by the way if you want to raise the price a little we might be interested in listening again. SDSU made some big plans based on the idea that they would be recieving a bunch of money from a Big East TV contract. That obviously didn't work out and as usual they aren't making it up on attendance.
It is possible that they have decided that they don't want to play but it would be awfully hard for them to turn down a chance to make some significant money.
Negotiating ploy. They've got their number. We tried to get Hawaii for a lot less. Failed. Now it's a matter of getting that SDSU deal done without having to go all the way to what they want.
I'd like to know where the heck the giving, charitable spirit is here? We are in a big financial bind due to a natural disaster and SDSU is trying to suck us dry. Wish we could tell them to go f****ing pound sand if that is what they are trying to do! I know its a business but I'm sure what we already offered was fair.

Getting the game for a little less than the payday figure they want and then pouding them into the sand and out of football relevance for another decade until they find the next one of Marshall Faulk's kids will suffice. Let's get it Mr. George! We're paying him to be a closer, and I have confidence he can close something to our satisfaction soon.
With the fat TV contracts and megamillions the likes of UT make the cost to schedule an OOC game is going to skyrocket in the upcoming years as the top teams are going to want to feast on the lesser teams and the lesser teams will want some of that payday. Hopefully RG is a better negotiator than Bohn. We made some really ****ty deals under him.
