That's a good solid game, and one fans from both could travel to.

Would love for us to schedule any of the service academies. Have we ever?

Was good Army team that went 10-2 and beat Navy. Never played Navy or Air Force.

We need to change the conversation about such things. SC is not paying UMass to play football. SC is paying Umass NOT to have to play them at their stadium. The payment is in lieu of the return game.

Wish Ohio would look to this philosophy. I also understand that EMU is broke and need the money from payday games. You'd rather give up a home game and play 5 game home schedules with 7 on the road? That's certainly possible, but I wonder how the Athens business community would feel about it, given that home games have been estimated to bring 1/2 million dollars or so into the Athens economy. Note that you can replace the home FCS game with a home-away series, and get 5 1/2 games a year, or with a paid road game, and get 5 home games a year. EMU seems you have done a mix. As you'd expect, they will have 6 home games the year where they have the FCS game. For the three seasons with no FCS game, they will have six one of the them, and fine home games twice, so they are at 5 1/3 home games when not playing an FCS team. “We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak.” ― Epictetus Back to Top Showing Replies:   1 - 7  of 7 Posts Jump to Page:   1 View Other 'Ohio Football' Topics                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               WHO'S ONLINE There are 343 Active Visitors on BobcatAttack.com 341 Guests 2 Registered Users:   SBH, Cats5 There are no other users looking at this page.
