    I wonder if that's his side of the story re: the Ohio State negotiations.

      I am now hearing on CB that two teams want out.

      One team that wasn't announced but was a done deal. The other is supposedly a team already on the schedule.

      Anyone have any idea who these teams are. Also I heard they may replace a road game with a home game with a shit team and have 7 home games.

      Wahoo, you get to pay $150 for two tickets to see a shit team.

        I think one team is Washington State. Just my uninformed and source free opinion.

          I would guess that BSU is the one that was under contract, considering BSU can cancel its games without having to pay a penalty, but that's just a guess.

            Didn't you pay like double that, to have some cute chic golf with you, recently?

              Not a big loss. I don't want them replaced with a game at home with Weber St. though unless BYU does the right thing and throw the game in for free.

              They might do that. We all know BYU isn't about the money and they have higher standards than the other money grubbing, football 1st priority schools.

                Well, that is who we'll get as far as a replacement.

                It's not like the rest of the teams in FBS have much as far as games available this late in the deal.

                  Not even close to being the same thing. For an old fart like me, playing with a young, cute, gal who is a 5 handicap can not be equalled.

                  Especially when she wears one of those short skirt ladies golf outfits.

                    From Jeff Call:

                    One of BYU's opponents in 2013, for the second straight year, will be Notre Dame. The Cougars and Fighting Irish will meet again in South Bend.

                    The two teams agreed to a six-game series in 2010. After next year, no games have been officially announced. "We might take a big break until we play them again," Holmoe said.

                    However, Holmoe is optimistic that the four other games of the series against Notre Dame — including two in Provo — will be played.
                    Big break? Optimistic?

                        The BYU Cougars and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish have set the dates for their 2012 and 2013 football games, BYU has announced.

                        The Fighting Irish will host the Cougars at Notre Dame Stadium in South Bend in both years. The 2012 game will be played on October 20 while the 2013 game will be played on November 16.

                        BYU and Notre Dame will also play a 4-game, home-and-home series between 2014 and 2020. Exact dates for those games will be announced later.

                        The Fighting Irish own a 4-2 record all-time against the Cougars. The two schools haven’t played each other since 2005.

                          That looks to me like a week-old story that doesn't contain any information that isn't already in this thread. What am I missing?

                            If you know of any negotiations that had taken place I am all ears.. I would love for them to come to The Shoe.. It would actually be a good addition to Ohio St's schedule for next year.. The OOC schedule looks weak...

                              I don't know anything other than what I read and posted earlier in the thread. In the article linked in that post, Gene Smith said OSU was having discussions with SDSU:

                              “There are discussions,” Smith said. “But there are discussions with other people, too. I can't confirm that anything is done.

                              “There are five schools that we have contacted that have open dates for 2013. There are a lot of moving parts and short notice to make one of them work.”
