UofL suing Duke

[All Tell]

Louisville files suit over canceled games.

[LRCW]

I'm sure that RockPride can arbitrate a peaceful agreement between the two universities for a small fee. :D

Is there really much difference in Duke and Indiana State?

[MountainThunder]

I take exception to UL calling Duke (in football) a 'quality opponent'. An opponent from a BCS conference? Yes. A quality opponent? Not quite.

Is there really much difference in Duke and Indiana State?

Yes, there is in these terms ... Duke is a I-A program (well, sort of) and Indiana State is I-AA.

 

Teams can count a win over a I-AA team towards its six wins to compete in a bowl game only once in a four-year span, I believe. It's conceivable that the loss of a I-A opponent off the schedule could it make it tougher to get a bowl bid if Louisville has a couple more seasons like this one.

 

And Duke cancelling at this late date just isn't a real classy move.

I forgot about the win not counting for bowls.

They need to update their headline.

Does a I-A team still get a once every four year waiver to allow them to count a win versus a I-AA team?

That's what I was talking about.

D1 BCS vs. D1AA non-BCS

 

ACC team vs. Missouri Valley (I think team)

 

Yes there is.

That's what I was talking about.

 

I only read the first and last sentence, I guess...:irked:

[cshs81]

D1 BCS vs. D1AA non-BCS

 

ACC team vs. Missouri Valley (I think team)

 

Yes there is.

 

Both teams stink. There is no difference other than counting D1 victories.

[All Tell]

And in this age of college football that a huge difference.

Oh, I agree with the bowl ramifcations.

ACC team vs. Missouri Valley (I think team)

Actually, Indiana State's football team is in the Gateway Conference, which is sort of the football version of the Valley.
