WSU151 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 FYI, title game ticket prices are out (and have been since May, apparently)$450$650 for Club Level$200 for Student section and Standing RoomSemifinal prices (Rose and Sugar) have not been determined, but there are concerns that those games may not sellout.This is just them setting up a paper trail to get rid of student seats. Or bilk more money out of the schools.Why couldn't the semis be played on campus again?Yeah because the average student who doesn't have a rich mommy and daddy can afford a $200 ticket along with airfare and hotel expenses. Way to over price things.Do college kids no longer have credit cards? How much is spent on booze and drugs again? Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

dfwabel Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Well… (Maybe.)Between this and the field turf, would I be correct in assuming that NDNation has hired a crack team of assassins to ensure Brian Kelly never coaches again?Don't think so. Some, just like Kelly, hope that these allegations simply just blow over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drugs and alcohol, unfortunately, is kind of a necessity for most college kids. Kind of like rent is if they are off-campus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kewp80 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Well I've known a lot of friends of mine that have blown their student loans on booze, drugs, rent, and college football tickets. Sometimes I feel like this is going to be the next bubble to burst. The way they give out student loans and the students use it to buy swank private owned student housing for $600-$1000 a month per person. These have been going up like crazy here in Columbia. EDIT: Sorry to stay off topic. I'd like to go back to college football now :)I feel Missouri is going to be relying on their defense a lot this year. Cardinals -- Rams -- Blues -- Tigers -- Liverpool Check out my music! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be such a shame.It is a shame too especially when Colt Brennan took that program to a BCS Bowl in 2007 (Blown out by Georgia). But looking at that article, I can understand why (Aloha Stadium is terrible and the facilities are just bad). If they do drop football, the Mountain West could add New Mexico State or Idaho to keep the football membership at 12 (for the championship game).

DarkJourney Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 If Hawaii does indeed drop their football program New Mexico State to the MWC would make the most sense. Idaho moving back to FCS would be even better. They're already back in the Big Sky for all other sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially NMSU and Idaho. Hawai'i is a mess and was so years before Colt Brennan told reporters that the showers didn't have soap.The athletic department spends 20% of their budget on travel. They haven't had a sellout since 2006, the year BEFORE the undefeated season and when they went to the Sugar Bowl, they didn't accept the full allotment of tickets and created. The 2008 season has two home games with FCS teams. They have had three athletic directors since 2008. They fired the one who had the bowl ticket issue, and last year had to get rid of his replacement because he was duped out of $200K of university funds trying to book a Stevie Wonder concert to be a department fundraiser. Now they have a former Ohio St. Assoc. AD who requested that $12M of department debt which they took from the university was to be forgiven. The regents did that and the guy cannot balance a budget after he promised cuts and financial changes last year. They hired a accountant, not a fundraiser, who first wanted to streamline the team nicknames, then backed off that after one year. And the school's chancellor was fired three weeks ago.
