Good get, ND is one of 10 to 15 schools I would consider doing a 2 for 1 with.

I don't know what anyone could find to b1tch about. Getting a 2 for 1 with ND is actually a great get. No one else in the conference is doing that. And getting UF in Tampa, I bet a certain school's fans are hot about that. Congrats.

As stated before, they’re only doing that because ray jay is rented and UF can fill that stadium with half of their fans. UF insisted on playing us at the Citrus Bowl instead of Spectrum for that reason, which is a non-starter.

Typical butthurt...

Nah, I think it’s a good series, just explaining why we can’t get them. In other news, usf isn’t gonna have any fans allowed at games, but that shouldn’t feel much different than usual for the players.

I know it was just a(nother lame) attempt at smack talk, but USF's only announced no fans for the opener vs. The Citadel.

Yeah I know, and I understand the situation. That doesn't change the fact that UF is playing at USF's home stadium. Doesn't matter if they rent it or not, it's their home stadium is the real point.

The P6 is working, ND would never have played USF if it wast working, in 2011 technically USF and ND were still in then AQ BIG EAST.

ND was going to play Western Michigan. It is not a P6 school.

USF took Western Michigan's spot when the MAC canceled its season.

ND needed an OOC opponent. P6 had nothing to do with it.

So ND replace the entire 3 games series they had with Western Michigan and replaced them with USF?

Quote: "ND would never have played USF if it wast working."

Singular. ND would never have played USF except for "P6, status"......was your statement.

Is Western Michigan a P6 school? ND was going to play them, except for Covid.

That kills your narrative, right there.

Those other two games have nothing to do with "P6". That was the price to pay USF to fill a need right now.

ND needed a team to play this year, OOC. Opponents are sort of in short supply this year, if you hadn't noticed.
