Maybe we'll get to play Elon or something. Yeah, it sucks. I think teams will continue to do this to us if the buy out is low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Power 5 teams will continue to do this to Group of 5 teams until almost all games are cancelled. If P5 teams only play P5 teams it effectively locks out the Go5 from the playoff. Very smart move by them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant be because they are scared of us, Cincy is a better team and has been consistently the past few years.(Yes we beat them)(doesn't mean we were better overall). On a positive side though USF is one of like 5 Schools from the "Have Not Conferences" to play 3 Power Conference Schools this year OOC. Cant complain about that at all.

I hope USF will demand that the games will be played in Tampa 1st before we travel there citing being burned by tons of other schools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see many P5 teams giving much of any kind of care about us being burned in the past or not. Another crystal ball prediction is that we are on the more needy side for meaningful games against P5 opponents, not the other way around. I seriously doubt that we have much power in negotiations of this nature, seeing as we need the P5 schools more than they need us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need Aresco to go in there and beat the living hell out of the P5 and make it the P6. Get ready for some more major lawsuits. Get Obama to throw around his weight a little bit.

I agree they hold the cards for the most part, But lets not forget that Alabama (cream of the crop) was or is desperate to find a team for 2015. http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/writer/jeremy-fowler/24575829/alabama-desperate-for-12th-game-in-2015-will-take-anybody Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
