I understood your comment... my point was you (the season ticket holder) would be spending money on four crappy OOC games, instead of having one good OOC matchup.... the bang for your buck would be less.


You must have switched gears then on me bec I wasnt talking about my money.

But I get what you are saying. The only bang I need is a W...I dont care if its against Furman or Nebraska.

quote:

We've had some OOC home matchups over the last decade that would've never happened with your line of thinking...

2009 WVU
2010 Clemson
2001 Syracuse
2007 Kansas State


And Im ok with that bec the 08 WVU game, 2000 Cuse game, and 2011 CU games were games we didnt need to play. The 2008 WVU game kept us out of a bowl. The 2000 Cuse game kept us from a possible 10 win season. The 2011 CU game kept us from a possible NY Day bowl. Thats money the school could have used.

Would it be possible, or semi-possible for all the major teams to play all their OOC games the same weeks? The B1G is notorious for all their OCC games first then the entire B1G season, while I know a lot of conferences do them throughout the season.

This would make it easier for everyone but I'm sure smarter people than me have said this before

your logic is odd, but i'm not gonna change or mind... what does it matter if we won 8 games or 9 games in 2000?.... or 8 instead of 9 in 2011?... or 5 instead of 6 (and possibly not firing tuberville) in 2008?...

This is how I look back on it... at the end of the day, all we have to show for our devotion/fandome is the experiences... playing good OOC games strengthens that experience, IMO.
