Message: [QUOTE="cuseincincy, post: 1056233, member: 331"] Yep. Sign me up for Kentucky, Purdue and the Jets (Geno Smith? No fear!). I understand playing a MAC or WAC or whatever other lower conference BCS team. Don't care what everyone else is doing, playing FCS teams cheats your fans, cheats your players out of real competition. In 2015 we're already going to play a MAC and FCS school. An opportunity is there, take it. You never know. Good thing we weren't afraid to play Nebraska back in 1984 (even though they beat us 63-7 the year before) or we'd have missed out on one of the greatest moments in program history. You can't win big games if you don't play big games. By the way in 1984 our "non-independent" schedule consisted of Nebraska, Maryland, Florida and Northwestern. How many people remember that SU lost the next 3 games after upsetting #1 Nebraska? [/QUOTE]
