its semantics, you're reading into it too much..he means its technically not a negotiation till the end of our contract..that in 2018 itll be more of gauge of value and seeing if espn wants to offer us anything grand, if not we'll wait till we can officially negotiate
i think the joke he was making was that he doesnt think espn would want people thinking they can "negotiate" for more money mid contract and give ideas to others..

I can name five off the top of my head: Navy lost to Air Force, Houston lost to SDSU, UCF lost to Arkansas State, Navy lost to La Tech, Memphis lost to WKU....
LOL... You freaking hilarious, man
AAC's games vs the G4's are Superbowls to them that's why they try desperately to beat AAC programs.

I'm pretty sure I posted that same data here....
you went further there..
wyoming likely beating iowa or oregon ? unlv can beat byu? boise will "atleast" go 3-1, playing 2 borderline top 25 (byu/wazzu), hell even troy is supposed to be very good? csu has a "great" chance to go 3-1 playing bama, Colorado and Oregon state, where they might be underdogs in all 3?
these were likely....not even potentials
Boise State - you think the fact that I predict Boise to beat Troy at Home, beat UVA who is horrible, and lose to Washington State on the road is unrealistic? They haven't gone worse than 3-1 OOC since they were in the Big West. Hardly a leap.
Wyoming - you think an Oregon team that played no defense last year is going to waltz into Laramie and beat Wyoming? Wyoming has the projected fitst pick in the 2018 draft at QB and many coming back. It's hardly a leap either. They will likely be favored at Home.
Colorado State - they beat Colorado every third year, generally speaking. They have their entir Offense coming back and Colorado will be weak on Defense. Again, not a leap. Regarding Oregon State, Colorado State is favored at Home by 3.5, so you are again off bas(first game in new stadium).
UNLV - I said they had a "chance" to beat BYU if their phenom Frosh QB is actually as good as advertised. Based on that, and the fact they play Howard, at Idaho and then BYU at Home, you don't think theirnisna "chance."
Hardly any of those statements are blasphemous.

we're not debating "unrealisitc"..your words were likely
boise- "atleast 3-1"...troy is the sunbelt favorite, and took national champion Clemson to the wire last year @clemson, Washington state is projected top 5 in the pac12 on luke falk's final season, byu will be seen as a top 35 team ..
guaranteeing at-least 3-1 is crazy..possible? sure, 4-0 is possible but guaranteeing 3 is bad projections
wyoming- Wyoming is mediocre at best, josh allen being perfect nfl size and arm strength doesnt change that..they lost to unlv, eastern michigan, and new Mexico last year..both phil steele ad athlon have oregon at 8 wins and top 5 in the pac 12.. Wyoming will not be favored regardless of where its at..wyoming wont be favored at either oregon or iowa
Colorado State- they beat trash Colorado every 3 years, Colorado isnt trash anymore, Colorado beat them like little children last year.. and secondly we are debating "likely", you said 3-1 for Colorado state had a great chance....and you get a 3 point edge for home games..so you are saying a game where csu has a .5 edge, and 2 games where they'll be double digit underdogs is likely 3-1
unlv- so a composite 85 true freshmen qb who has never played a down of college is supposed to give bad unlv a chance to beat byu???
none of those are crazy upsets, the parts thats crazy is you saying they are likely

So silly. You are reading to much into words.
How about this, Houston will likely will go 3-1, could go 2-2, but could also go 1-3, however unlikely. Playing at the Alamo Dome and in Tucson is always tough. Better?
