It could flop, but you have to give BG credit for trying something out of the box.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6608358.post-29692473983193319452012-03-30T04:15:02.551-04:002012-03-30T04:15:02.551-04:00Good analogy....Good analogy....Orangehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11650024802297852666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6608358.post-24094389239068479022012-03-30T02:15:16.672-04:002012-03-30T02:15:16.672-04:00This is like if Tulsa (non bcs team) played a conf...This is like if Tulsa (non bcs team) played a conference game against SMU in Norman, Oklahoma the day before the Oklahoma State-Oklahoma. Its ridiculous to think any other school would entertain this idea. That weekend everyone in the columbus area will be focused on OSU/Michigan. There will be barely, if any, media coverage of a BG/Buffalo game. I'm interested to know what type of attendance the athletic department is expecting for this game. I say 15,000 and that's IF it's decent weather and BG is playing for a mac title or bowl bid.Mikey Macnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6608358.post-56583745520048362572012-03-29T21:18:44.779-04:002012-03-29T21:18:44.779-04:00Fair enough.

Larger potential alumni fan base, nothing else for our fans (whose wives are enjoying black Friday) to do in Columbus - why not tailgate and watch the Falcons.<br /><br />Do I wish it were a bigger team ? Sure but I love the non-conference schedule and I'll take a winnable game in the heart of Ohio.<br /><br />(also I would imagine that a lot of our season ticket holders drive from Columbus or at lease from the South every week anyway -- they will come).<br /><br />Normally you are spot on, but I must respectfully disagree on this one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
