Doogal McCougar Walk-on

Always the Saturday after Thanksgiving.

The USC series, with the California game held the Saturday after Thanksgiving or early December, goes back 100 years.

Looks at the fine print, remembers Notre Dame.

Agreed. The games at BYU being after the games at Stanford scares me.

What do you mean? I’m not aware that the ND series played a role with going Indy

Obviously they didn't go indy because they got the contract.

Looks to me like 5 at Stanford, 1 in Provo. Then the stalling begins.

Notice they aren't playing in Provo. Expect those to cancel.

Stanford won't be canceling season openers with enormous buyouts. Settle down.

Stanford can afford anything but I see your point IFF the buyouts are large

One typically uses reason based on past experience and (in)consistencies. I'll stick with my gut on this one.

mulletino

1/29/20 2:46pm

Did ND ever pay its buyout fees? BYU often negotiates crappy contracts.

Archaea

1/29/20 2:17pm

No idea.

mulletino

1/29/20 2:20pm

My suspicion is, if ND had paid, we'd know, so we should assume, BYU

Archaea

1/29/20 2:47pm

That's my assumption as well but didn't want to draw a logical conclusion and have East1999 burn my house down.

mulletino

1/29/20 3:09pm

BYU and The Church have always been really strict about sticking to contracts.

Lance71

1/29/20 3:11pm

BYU doesn't owe ND anything. It's the other way around.

Stanford doesn't have the money to do that.

Yes they do. They have an endowment of at least $500 million just for athletics.

I wish Holmoe would only schedule 1 away before 1 home is agreed to, etc.

Yep, just ask USC, Tennessee, and Wisconsin.

And then look at our loses over the same seasons.

Big Time 55

Agree, however it is the G5 losses that are hurting the program right now.

Dangerous

1/29/20 11:02am

We win about 50% versus *non-Utah* P5 since independence.

He'll be retired before Stanford cancels. That's probably in the contract.
