All times are still TBA. Discuss.

I think this away game at Miami might be easier than last year's contest. They lost a lot of good players to the portal.

2 Bye weeks and Houston early in the schedule is intersting.

The road games are rough

Houston game is at 12:00 on FS1. Which is interesting becuase this was orginally on ESPN+

either way I get to dvr it as I must attend a grandkid's birthday party. They call me Grandpa Patrol

Any idea how much they get from their Big 10 beat downs? They get a MAC payout because they are (wait for it), in the MAC.

I'm thinking between 750K and 1.25M.

I get it. They need to fund their program or drop to FCS. Considering how many times they've been on the watch list for D-1 demotion over the years, it's a financial decision on their part. Tradition be damned I guess.

Real reason Miami-UC rivalry is ending..... At the breakfast at Camp Higher Ground, they told us Miami wanted a "Big 12" payout to play UC, not the customary $150K or so that we have paid for all these years. Not sure how much they wanted, but it was a BIG increase. Wasn't going to happen, so the series will end.

So they basically wanted to be treated as a P5 buy game and still play at their place? How about no.

Cincinnati Football to Recognize 2008 Team Against Pittsburgh on Sept. 7

https://gobearcats.com/news/2024/8/1...on-sept-7.aspx

The team featured nine all-conference players and dozens of future NFL draft picks, including Mardy Gilyard, Tony Pike, Jason and Travis Kelce, Connor Barwin, Kevin Huber, DeAngelo Smith, John Hughes, Derek Wolfe and Mike Mickens – among several other stars.


I question the "dozens of future NFL draft picks" but a fun team nonetheless. Armon Binns was on the squad too.

Pitt—who comes to Nippert in September—slotted at #13 in preseason ACC poll

Miami U first in the MAC poll

[longtimefan]

8/31 - Towson - White
9/7 - Pitt - Red
9/21 - Houston - Black
10/19 - AZ State - Red (Homecoming)
11/9 - WV - Black
11/30 - TCU - Black

Houston is the one I’d like to change. No time announced yet, I hope it’s a night game.

Just came in the house, wearing a dark shirt on a hot day. Could UC please not wear the all black uniforms until at least October? Football is hard enough, we don’t need to be a couple of degrees warmer than our opposition. Night games a different story of course.
