This is either our annual money game, or this is a sign that our philosophy has changed, and we are scheduling at least 2 P5 games/year.
Either way, I like it.
In 27 the P5 and G5 will be history. He needs a return game.Quote:

I would like to see a P5 home game every now and then.Quote:

This whole P5 thing and G5 thing will be done in 2025. It was created when the G5 got an auto bid for a NY6 to keep the G5 at bay. Now in 2025 there are 6 top ranked conference champs auto bids to the CFP plus 6 at large which will pretty much end(or at least it should) the conference classification of P5 vs G5. If your team plays FBS football then you at least have a shot at the CFP.
1.3 mil will not be a lot of money for 2027. heck, its probably a below-average payout for 2022. why are we selling ourselves cheap, if we not getting a home game in return? maybe it's apart of a two A5 teams on the schedule every couple of years philosophy change to make more money?
UCF is one of those teams that was a standout at G5 level but will potentially struggle at a P5 level. This will likely be a very winnable game. I'll take a $1.3 mln payout for that any day.Quote:

I would prefer to view most teams in the country outside the top 15 as winnable in a few years from now and still get paid above average payouts if we not getting home and home deals. no need to settle for less.Quote:

Maggard has always said that his goal is to schedule winnable P5 games, and winnable teams don’t pay as much as un-winnable teams. Yes, we could make much more money scheduling Alabama, but the goal isn’t to make as much money as possible. The goal is to put us in a position to win football games.Quote:
