Other than the above, I think we're playing an 11 game regular season.

Re: Rescheduling Hypotheticals
It's beginning to look like App State will have to aim for 12-1 instead of 13-1 this year . . .

Let's not forget the flack we received from high school coaches when we played on Friday night.

Re: Rescheduling Hypotheticals
Totally what they should have done, and was thinking this whole time. Based on the forecast, it surprised me that they canceled it.

Cancellations are about police, firefighters, and first responders moving east. Also the school doesn't want fans traveling to games in inclement weather.

Re: Rescheduling Hypotheticals
Just saw a tweet from Brett McMurphy stating that Iowa State has rescheduled their canceled home opener for Dec 1. If they make the Big 12 title game they will not play the rescheduled opener. If they don't make the title game they have their rescheduled game to play. Maybe this is an option though I'm sure if we go this route we all hope the game we play on 12/1 is the title game!

Re: Rescheduling Hypotheticals
I looked at the AAC conference schedule a few days ago and if we didn't mind doing a short week, we could probably play Cincy, SMU, Tulane or UCONN in early October.

I'll start with Clemson at The Rock on October 13 . . . both teams have this weekend cancelled . . .
Dream on. We're about 70,000 seats short.

Re: Rescheduling Hypotheticals
Perhaps we can rearrange the whole schedule so you can attend. Just a dose of your sarcasm back at you.

Re: Rescheduling Hypotheticals
Strong suggestion for G5s. Start playing "Week 0." Currently most G5s especially CUSA, MAC and Sun Belt do not have bye weeks which causes these issues when a game needs to be re scheduled.

Re: Rescheduling Hypotheticals
There were clear option available this weekend. Don’t look to reschedule just play out the rest of the games, it isn’t going to change the outcome of the season.

Re: Rescheduling Hypotheticals
Wonderin' aloud.... If USM had been a 20 point favorite, would that have changed their view on trying to get played?
