Cool that you’ve been able to read those contracts!

6/22/22 9:44am

Are you sure BYU even gets a lot more money? Or are you just guessing?

6/22/22 9:44am

I'm sure.

Ok

That remains to be seen. Holmoe admitted this is a ND "home" game

As I said..if they cancel the game they wouldn't get to go either.

Fdnman

No but at the time this game was scheduled they still could have potentially

in 2019 Cinci got $1.2M for a neutral site Shamrock game (also got 6000 seat allocation)

Cincinnati's contract was not for a neutral Shamrock game.

No, but it's redundant.

shoganai

As far as ticket allocation goes historically it does not seem to be neutral

They didn't even play that year. 2021 was a 1 and DONE deal.

I don't doubt Holmoe made the best of a bad situation, both when he originally

What were the other options for that date? Any good teams available to play us? Isn't that Tom's math? I've got a date

Genghis Spreads

Now beat them. That's the right sort of revenge.

home game with whom? And how does that compare with the revenue share of a prime time game on NBC. And how does that

Hopefully this put the nail in the coffin for those who were 2nd to 3rd level ND fans. To heck with them
