Nebraska to play Bethune Cookman to replace cancelled game





BCU received a waiver from the NCAA to play a 12th game

“Nebraska contacted us in great need of an opponent to complete their schedule because of the cancellation and we were virtually one of the only institutions with the open date of October 27 this year,” Lynn W. Thompson, BCU Vice President for Intercollegiate Athletics said. “We have been in this situation before and had no options. So, after talking it over with our staff and administration – and with the support of the MEAC office, we were able to get the game approved.”

The game won’t keep BCU out of the postseason if it makes it. But it will guarantee a second FBS check for the program this season.

I wonder if bringing there Band was part of the deal? Still would be a very nice net check after traveling expenses if the Band was included!
 
Master P said it best, "never go into a business deal, desperate." If i'm playing a school out of a power-5, i'm taking no less than 850 K. Anything under 800 K is a insult.

The VAST majority of FCS vs P5 games are well under 800k. I most get in the 500-650k range.
