Big game next!

Sorry, but if you beat an FCS school by more than 5 TDs, you should be barred from scheduling them anymore.   Looking at Oklahoma, Alabama and Oregon as well.

Last two TDS came by the backup QB and a true freshman that made a few guys miss on a slant to take it to the house 65 yards. 

Scott Satterfield said after the game that he isn't going to apologize for guys making plays and scoring points. I agree with him.

So hit 35-0 late second quarter and start taking knees? Punt on third down?

Don't schedule EKU.

That is a whole other argument.

I would contend EKU want$ to play them just as much as the other way around. They got paid $400,000 (seems low). Sadly this is how the game works.

Emory Jones was named Big 12 Offensive Player and Newcomer of the week for his performance in week 1.

FCS Opponent

MAC Level Opponent

P5 Opponent

Conference Schedule

Pretty much every P5 program uses the model above for their schedule...and it is good for college football.

The payouts EKU will get from Cincinnati last week and Kentucky this week will probably fund 85-90% of their operating costs for the season.

Schools like EKU and other FCS schools desperately NEED to schedule major D1 teams. If not, there athletic departments would disappear.
