Nebraska Fail

[flycy]

Wouldn’t you also bet it states a game being playied though? In that case are they obligated to pay if no game occurred?

You’d think both sides would have sought to have specific language on such an event as weather related cancellation or postponement, including defining reasonable accommodations for an additional night.

If both sides left it to chance, costs incurred seems reasonable imo.

Just like ours the game started.

But like ours, wasn’t played

I could almost guarantee that this case will make it to All-State competition for Nebraska High School Mock-Trial or Debate in the coming years.

One would think that with millions of dollars on the line, a lawyer would have looked at the contract in advance. I have to imagine this is spelled out in there.

Do you know many lawyers? It is an industry, you understand? A huge freaking stinking industry...the whole affair may or not be settled, but one thing for sure is that there will staff lawyers for both schools getting paid.

Nebraska should definitely be in ESPN's bottom 10 this week.

0-3, home loss to Troy and Michigan could have scored 80 on them if they wanted.

I believe I had read that Nebraska was wanting to play the game that Sunday (the next day) and had secured some housing for Akron but they didn't want to do it.

No. That’s wrong.

So what if Akron needs the sure win against Nebraska for bowl eligibility?

Akron got screwed! They’ll probably have to schedule an FCS team instead of the easy road win in Lincoln.

Nope. You'll have to settle for Minnesota, Illinois, and Purdue.

GOing 1-11 with a win against Rutgers would be a cheap way of avoiding 0-12.

Didn't they schedule Bethune cookman to replace

They did. I'm not familiar with Bethune Cookman but seeing Nebraska and Akron on the field several times now it's very likely the lightning turned a loss on the schedule into a win for Neb, but I'd need to know more about BC.

Nebraska is most definitely not better than Northwestern right now and we saw Akron @NW.

Yeah I think Akron beats them, Bethune no idea

 

[inCyteful]

Good point

They won't have any problem scheduling for the next few years. Teams are going to want a sure win on the schedule.

I looked this up figuring this would be Rutgers best chance at another win, but sadly for the Scarlet Knights, they do not get to play that easy of a schedule. Tons of schools are wishing they had NU for Homecoming. lol

Nebraska ruined their program when they moved to that garbage conference. They are now a joke like most Big 10 programs.

They don't. But they do play Wisconsin and Ohio State.
