Sparty is available. Would be ideal, but not happening.
I view it completely different. CSU/WYO get to come in and play a P5 on a national broadcast on short notice. They have the chance to upset us in a weird year, and if they lose, hey, they were supposed to anyway. Little risk with high reward.If I’m CSU or Wyoming, I’m not thrilled about the idea of coming into Boulder. It really doesn’t do them any good. At this point, though, it seems like a moot point. No way to install any kind of game plan with two days notice. I agree that if there was going to be a game, we would have had that fleshed out by now.

Agree. I think you do anything you can to play because it may be the last game.I'm worried about the rest of the season. This ain't getting any better.
SIAP, but what kind of money would CSU or Wyoming expect to get from playing in Boulder?The money says otherwise
I'd split the gate with them 50/50SIAP, but what kind of money would CSU or Wyoming expect to get from playing in Boulder?
My over/under at the beginning of the season I believe was 3.5. I may still take the under.I'm worried about the rest of the season. This ain't getting any better.

If they haven’t canceled the season by now, they’re not going to. As has been said all along, there is far too much money at stake with virtually no evidence that playing games spreads the virus. Once again, it’s actually safer for these players to be playing every week than not.

Really strange they would decline and take a bye week on a short year IMOSo CSU didn't want to play in Laramie
Absolutely. Right now the entire CU team is staying at a hotel in a "bubble" of sorts and being tested/contact traced everyday. That would absolutely not be happening if the season was cancelled.Safer because they might otherwise be at college parties/gatherings?
Yes. There is data that suggests outbreaks are happening with more frequency for teams coming off bye weeks.Safer because they might otherwise be at college parties/gatherings?
Cut of the TV revenue. Sittin' at home you get nothing. Perhaps that's part of any negotiation that might be going on right now.SIAP, but what kind of money would CSU or Wyoming expect to get from playing in Boulder?
I don't know, but its a hell of a lot more than they would get if they didn't play.SIAP, but what kind of money would CSU or Wyoming expect to get from playing in Boulder?
