Except it was wrong. The Liberty game actually pushed to 2026. And looks like Duke has been moved too. So, 2020 not set yet as I initially thought.

Great job! Getting the first game is huge. I wonder if C-USA refs will be officiating the game in Blacksburg?

That’s a good get. Always nice to see these P5 schools coming in, the ACC seems to be very active in playing G5 schools on the road.

This makes me happy. VT is not turning their nose to G5, unlike some of their peers.

Impressed -- not sure how we were able to get this, but I'll take it. Will we be competitive? Haven't had a great history of hosting so-called power teams... 2 years away!

They are also paying us $500,000 when we go there and we are only paying them $250,000 when they come to our place.

VT had Michigan scheduled for 2020 and 2021 and they cancelled about a month ago. VT needed an away game in 2020 and a home game in 2021. MTSU is a great option because it's a reasonable drive for much of our southwest Virginia fan base. I'm looking forward to it and am already trying to work out something with family I have in the area.

I'm not sure why we're paying $500K for y'all and you are paying $250K for us. It's usually the same for both schools whatever the amount is. Although we did the same thing for Liberty.

Not only is VT playing G5 schools they are doing home and away deals with most of them. ECU has played VT forever and I believe they're still on the schedule until 2025. After that ODU and Liberty take over as we signed long home and away deals with each of them. ODU takes over ECU's spot of getting exposure in the 757 area code and Liberty was cheap. Liberty has been giving deals to everyone to round out their FBS schedules.

Probably because - like you said - VT is the one who really needed the game after Michigan cancelled. We had to move a previously scheduled game off one of the dates to accommodate, so we had a little bit of leverage. Had this just been scheduled typically as a home and home with two parties coming together from the start then we both probably would have either done no money exchange or as you said both pay the same amount. It would appear the circumstances dictated the monetary variance.
