I wonder if ESPN picks up ECU and UConn game since it is a Sunday game

Hopefully not. Do we really want anyone watching that mess? 03-lmfao

Or pretty much cementing 0-12 before September is over.

Well, I think this shows that the Memphis/UCF game will be made up in some way also.

RE: !!! Official Schedule Change Thread !!! - Hood-rich - 09-14-2017 09:53 AM

So does this switch up follow what a USF fan posted as a possibility on their blog?

Do they still do ties? Because if anyone can find a way to end a game in a tie it would be ecu vs uconn.

Hey, I already apologized on here to both UConn and Tulane for their future losses to a terrible ECU team during the first half of the season opener.

For UCF and Memphis, who at this time have a legitimate shot at playing in the championship game, need to meet on the field. Moving a team like ECU to a game on the championship weekend may be a solution. That assumes ECU doesn't find themselves early in conference play.

Both Memphis & UCF have OOC games on 9/30 & are attempting to replace those games with the UCF vs Memphis reschedule. However, the buyout terms are steep & I doubt it gets done (that part JMO)

I'm not sure that was English, but Navy and Tulane are the only two teams that have played conference games.

If it is tied after four quarters, there will be no overtime. They will settle it via tickle fight (which I can assure you will look far less appealing than how we envision an ideal tickle fight as shown below).

Kudos to the league for getting this done.

Apparently Compher was key to making this happen. Give the man a lifetime contract!
