Serious question... Is it financially better for us to win or lose this game? I mean if App can get a good bowl, would our share of the payout be better than if we won? If we got a bowl, wouldn't that cost us money?

If the current stadium emptiness is any indication, they couldn’t even give away free tickets to this game.
If we make a bowl, I would think we’d get Montgomery and then our travel costs would be down. 🤷🏻♀️ Not sure how much that helps versus payout share.

Serious question... Is it financially better for us to win or lose this game? I mean if App can get a good bowl, would our share of the payout be better than if we won? If we got a bowl, wouldn't that cost us money? Bowl Games 101. We go through this every year. App. State will not be going to a NY6 game. Period. They needed to win out and they didn't. Memphis, Cincinnati or Boise will go to the Cotton Bowl - so either the MW or AAC will be able to divide the Cotton Bowl payout. ALL other bowl games - especially the ones we play in DO NOT WRITE ONE CHECK TO TMTDM. Bowl game payouts are based on IF every ticket is sold. We sell zero and we get zero. Each SunBelt team gets a minuscule portion of the BCS Championship TV contract. Bowl games are essentially a loss-leader for football programs. Long-term they help with recruiting, bringer regular season crowds, more merchandise sales. When you lose by 50, all that good will goes out the window and we have to start over. So, going to Montgomery wouldn't be that bad of a deal...but that's dreaming at this point.

So early, but they're walking away with it. I assume the announcers are broadcasting from Connecticut or somewhere - they've got that subdued quality announcers have when they're somewhere else (or else they're just apathetic), but they rightly just said App State was "making it look easy."

Well they showed some people in the booth at halftime so I guess I need to correct myself on that fact, although I guess it's getting duller by the minute for both the announcers and we fans...definitely a bummer, but I'm not surprised, so that lessens the sting. It's not like narrowly losing to Clemson, at a time and place where winning seemed to be a real possibility. After last week I didn't bother to get my hopes up.

40 points given up in 2 quarters. Welcome to (The HC we don’t speak of) ball No. Scoring 16 points in 6 quarters is (The HC we don’t speak of) Ball. Giving up 87 points over those same 6 quarters is a disgrace.

When I just looked up (stopped watching closely) and saw the 4th Quarter has barely started with this score.
