What even is this?
That's who they scheduled to replace their cancelled game. Several had talked about Iowa State as a possible replacement for ours.
Right....but wouldn't this be like the equivalent of us scheduling Doane?
Didn't Incarnate Word beat us in bouncyball a few years ago?
Not even close. They are FCS but they also play New Mexico this year. Have played Fresno State and UTEP in recent years
Ohio St. is going to have two weeks to get ready for us. I'd like to see us have two weeks to get ready for them.Per the agreement, Iowa State and Incarnate Word will play the newly scheduled game unless Iowa State qualifies for the Big 12 Championship, which is held Dec. 1 in Arlington, Texas, or Incarnate Word qualifies for the FCS playoffs.
Since they aren't refunding the money to ticket holders, I'm thinking the game would already be "soldout". They would just be reissuing the tickets. :dunnoAre we sure we will schedule a game on December 1st against a lousy opponent to squander the 'sellout streak'? A cold game in Lincoln against an FCS team doesn't have the feel for a sellout, especially during a season where wins are going to be hard to come by. Even if that game is Akron, I don't see that stadium being full.
