CU/FS game postponed to a later date

[DBT]

Hey, if anyone would of told you that as of Sept. 27th, CU would be undefeated, you'd have been ecstatic, right? :thumbsup:

Right call to cancel the game, but note that KU @ CU basketball is December 7th at 1:15pm.

They could push that game to a night game and play football at noon. Football/Basketball doubleheaders are not new.

That hoops game followed by an evening football game would be an amazing sports Saturday.

Switch to take advantage of the warmth of the sun for the football game. Bball can be played at any time.

Looking at the schedules, I don't see any way this game gets made up if Fresno makes the MWC Title game.

Someone had the idea of CU/Fresno being played Oct. 19 and then Fresno/UNLV moving their game to Nov.16 where they both have an open date.

Would mean 3 schools agreeing, and the Pac-12 office signing off on us playing a non conf game after the first 4 weeks.

We're scheduled to play Cal in a Thursday night game on the 16th. That won't work.

Special circumstances call for special measures.

It has nothing to do with us playing Cal. We'd be playing Fresno Oct. 19

 

[Darth Snow]

this is gonna be interesting. They have a lot of things to shuffle. I bet they just postpone it to another year.

I'm sure the PAC 12 would be OK with that if it meant another one of it's teams was potentially bowl eligible, and it meant one more game to air on the Pac-12 network. Getting UNLV to move would be the hard part.

Is it even allowed to play two games 3 days apart? That sounds incredibly unsafe.

Do not want. Not a fan of playing a 13 game schedule

CU would probably have to offer UNLV a series or 2 of football and basketball games.

There's nothing do with playing 3 days apart, where are you getting this? It's OCT 19 we'd play. Fresno and UNLV would play ​NOV 16

 

[GoonieBuff]

If we were 5-6 and it was postponed til a future year we might get an exemption for a bowl

Good point. Would also be our best shot.

It probably just be moved to some year where we a space in our non-conference schedules. I don't think we ever made up the game we cancelled in 2001 with Washington State.

Derp. My bad. Yeah, I could see that working.

Double derp (played it in 2003)

They technically made it up in 2003, but it was just part of a 12 game schedule.

I think getting our doors blown off in '03 was the make-up of '01 Wazzu

so we have a bye next week? Any chance we can get a FCS team here on short notice next week to get a 12 game season?

Toledo is open next Thursday.:smile2:

Only one FCS win counts towards bowl eligibility, though I suppose we could petition.

Will they grant an exemption with one of our 5 wins coming against a FCS team?

Trusting the NCAA to grant anything to CU is crazy

 

[tante]

this had to have happened to some school before, hurricane, tornado, earthquake, flood. What historical context do we have to look at?
