Curious, will Ga Tech try and replace UCF game
Will Ga tech look to replace the UCF game? Seems getting a 2nd FCS team would not be a bad idea. It appears two FCS 6-6 teams will likely get a NCAA waiver due to all hurricane cancellations. Any news?

The problem they have is that their bye week is now 10/7, less than 3 weeks from now. It seems unlikely that someone else had a cancellation that has the same bye week.

A more plausible alternative would be to schedule a contingent game on Championship Saturday, as UMass and FIU have.

Indiana, which had its game against Florida International cancelled, shared an open date with the Jackets, but they opted to play Charleston Southern instead. I imagine the coaching staff at IU had some input into that decision.

So Georgia Tech tried to schedule GA State.. But it fell thru and they have chosen not to pay a FCS to come to Bobby Dodd.

Not bad strategery

A 5-6 team will be taken for a bowl game over every 5-7 team.
