Memphis cancels on GSU
http://www.fbschedules.com/2017/09/memph...-play-ucf/

This is a shame. I hope this didn't impact too many people coming to the game from both teams.

Probably better than just filling in with some nobody team. My wife, a few friends, and myself hope to make it down if our families aren't overbearing about thankskilling.

Why on earth would they want to play Maine? That would be ridiculously stupid. It would take a ton of money to bring them down, and nobody would care to show up and watch.

easy answer...because the AAC is pretty much paying for it.

AAC paid Maine 350k to cancel. Then the AAC paid Ga State 1.1 million to cancel.

Ga State can then offer Maine the .1 from 1.1 million to come play in Atlanta.

Maine then essentially gets 450k to play Ga State, while Ga State walks away with a cool million. (and both schools get 12 games)

(see USA vs Presbyterian after hurricane Matthew)

That is all just stupid.

Why would we want to pay for a 10k attendance game?
