and its a great situation this year because we are going to have a LOT of young guys on the field. so its a good opportunity for them to get their feet wet but not have to dive in...to CFB that is


Still could just play an lower FBS team and not FCS.

Haven't teams been asking for double or so from what they were only 5-10 years ago?

I still hate the idea of 9 conference games. Doubt I'll ever change my mind on that one.

You wonder if it will make for less big name OOC games with having a tougher conference schedule.

I'm not sure of the exact numbers, but I've heard Coach Osborne talk about it as a certified fact.

Yea I believe it. I guess I had kinda forgot how much those teams were asking now.

I could be wrong, but if I was a coach seriously interested in winning a title, this would be true. Whether the AD feels the same way might be debatable though. It is true that Coach Osborne did say they'd put discussions on hold with a future series with OU until the 9 game conference schedule thing shook out.

That would make a really tough schedule if we had to play 9 Big 10 games and then play Oklahoma OOC every year. Would be really hard to go through that and make title game.
