Hawaii On Oct 19?

At least the Buffs are getting air time there. Heck of a lot better than in Denver.
That would be a good thing. Scared our recruiting that area left with Cabral
we are already going there in 2015, we might just be moving up their trip from next year to this year.
I don't know when we will see Fresno State here, maybe 2016 or later.
Maybe CU will throw in something like a Home and Home basketball deal in a future year.

No need to play Hawaii in basketball. We can dictate what week in September we want to play little brother to little brother. They were willing to move their game in 2011, and they're doing it again in 2015 when we play in Honolulu again. They're even easier for scheduling purposes, as we'd get that extra game. 600k and another game in Honolulu should it IMO.
Damn it, I have been thinking it was that weekend for the past few weeeks. I fly standby and live on Hawaiian time, so I don't plan well. Perhaps it will end up being a ten day weekend!
Your buddy is a complete punani. Rainbow Warriors is the right name.
Or send out women's VB team there for one hell of a test. They've got an outstanding program.
Wouldn't that be, like, 200%?

We might be better off playing them now, while we're healthy.

Actually, 3 times as good, but only 200% better.
I can guarantee we have more depth than them. Plus they'd be coming off a long trip to UNLV and in colder weather. I could see the line being -10.
CU and Hawaii athletic departments have had a good relationship in the past.
Hawaii is short on cash so the payday is a good deal for them, especially since they wouldn't have to make the trip all the way from the islands. They also have big problems scheduling non-revenue sports. Give them a payout and a couple of trips to the islands by soccer, VB, tennis, XC. Cost us some money but nothing like losing a home fb game would and make a nice recruiting tool for those programs, and if we send women's teams the cost will count towards title IX.

Cheehoo! Ho brah, da grinds stay so ono. The musubis, ahi poke, malasadas, poi, kau kau, at the luau wen' broke da mouff. I no can believe how you like go surf when da kine Buffs goin' play UH. E komo mai, mahalo nui loa, cuz.
Means "cool." Wasted part of my life determining that he didn't have early indication that Hawaii had turned us down and that he was only speaking Pidgeon.
It is weird to name them after a restaurant in Maui.
Lighten up. It was a joke. They have a restaurant with that name at the grand wailea in Maui.
Left my Pidgin dictionary (that I've had since '79) at a Hawai'ian party...in Tampa. I'm never going to see that thing again.
Lighten up. I know. I've been there. It's overpriced.

Nebraska has an open date Oct.19, just sayin' :lol:
Hope Hawaii comes through. I still think Idaho would be a solid back up plan because they're in more desperate need of $$ than anyone.
Other non-BCS programs with open date Oct 19th: UTEP, UT-San Antonio, Tulane, Florida Atlantic, Florida International, Marshall, Bowling Green, Middle Tennessee State. Someone's likely interested in that $$ and would get the waiver for a 13th game. Maybe the necessity of FBS is overblown. As absurd as the NCAA is, if we were forced to face another FCS team in this predicament and somehow made it to 6-6 and didn't get an exemption for automatic bowl eligibility, it would be a new low for the NCAA.
