Good point, but we don't carry any clout on getting a bigger pay-out, so I won't hold my breath. This looks like a sweetheart deal for Mizzou, who shared a similar 11th hour, back-against-the-wall scheduling issue. They are not a top 25 program, so why cave in? Mizzou now gets [B]7 [I]true[/I] home games [/B]and [I][B]no[/B][/I] commitment to play a home & home return match[B]. [/B]That sucks from a scheduling perspective, fan-base support and season success basis. I predict this will make our schedule one of the top 20 toughest, and IMO, will jeopardize Marrone's tenure here. I predict a 3-9 season with this schedule. And where's the payback from the BE for us [I]not[/I] pulling a WVU and leaving this year? If Temple supposedly comes in this year, why not reverse their 4-3 home advantage conference slate this year, and give them our 3-4 conference slate? Under the circumstances, they can go 4-3 in 2013. Without checking, something tells me TU will get 7 home games in '12 with a 4H-3A conference schedule. What are we still doing here(in the BE)?
