But, for the most part, it's just blah.

UTEP vs UNT is on Stadium, so good luck with that...
Stadium is free I believe for what its worth.

Okay guys and gals, cut Volkmar some slack please. He was trying to be civil. He's not coming over here to ruffle feathers and is a good poster. Thanks in advance.

Not a great slate of games. There should be more G5 and FCS non-conference games.

NCAA rules currently prohibit teams playing week zero games unless they are playing games in a foreign country, have a special kickoff classic game that was approved for that week, or are playing a game at Hawaii this year.

CUSA got a waiver to allow conference games week zero because they had some sort of scheduling hardship, not sure what that could be............

Otherwise, no one can play this week.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it might've had something to do with all the controversy surrounding Marshall, ODU, and USM leaving the conference this year as opposed to staying one more year as the AAC 6 are. If I remember, C-USA had already made their schedule including Marshall, ODU, and USM, and then had to redo the whole thing.

Granted, the SBC had to make late adjustments as well, but maybe late adjustments are easier with an even number of teams than it is with an odd number (C-USA has 11 this year).
Not to re-hatch or re-open old wounds.. But I believe all 3 schools notified the conference of the intent to leave and informed them they wouldn't be in the conference after the 2022 season. For whatever reason, whether it was legal understanding of contracts or bad judgement, the intent was ignored and this threw everything into a tailspin.

Argument could be made that if the AAC had room for the 6, they would've went the same route, but no one knows cause it didn't happen (no room at the inn and all that jazz).

Anyway.. Hope to see you post more. I like most of the UTSA folk. There are a couple I could do without, but every base has those. 04-cheers
