heck, if we did have to play towson in baltimore, that would only be a 30 minute ride right up the interstate for me. might be cold by then, but i'd be there if it worked out that way. but for now, other than hopefully enjoying the heck outta ghoe, my eyes will be on the howard/famu game...

Yeah, I'm thinking that @ means home game. The question is, would Hilton bid for it? If they are serious about competing, we should. Yep! Whenever Hilton talks about the playoffs his level of excitement amps up a notch same for Washington

If we had a serious marketing and development team, we could try to turn a home playoff game into our own mini Celebration Bowl. Yeah. That sounded silly as soon as I typed it .... Nothing silly about that statement Then the question will be answered if our fan base really cares about the FCS playoffs or the bells and whistles of the CB in the ATL

With FAMU likely to beat Howard, we have ample time to amp the fan base with a potential Home game in the playoffs.
They both wanted the playoffs, so they just may get it.

I am trying not to get ahead of myself... i think we have to play one game at a time, we thought we could sleep walk through the MEAC, that did not turn out as planned. But with that said, you made me think about a few things in regards to the direction of our program and the early discussions about our potential future conference affiliation. Let's say we win out get a playoff birth and the fan base does not warm to the playoffs, does that impact future conversations and discussions about our relationship with the MEAC? Our fans love the CB.

If we win out and if FAMU goes to the Celebration Bowl, a matchup with Elon is virtually inevitable.....

If we "WIN" out!
Why should we foot the Bill for a Home Playoff Game? why not BB&T?
Let's FINISH STRONG "AGGIES"

BB&T folk would be like "um, lose those dozens of Elon fans by putting up a bid for a home game for thousands of Aggie fans? Nah"

Let me spell it out for you. They don't want to risk alienating the people whose faces is on the money, even if there's more of us willing to spend it.

Let's FINISH STRONG "AGGIES" Last time I checked BB&T has No affiliation with the FCS or the NCAA through any type of contractual agreement like the big bowl cooperations do . There is no way that they could or will finance a playoff game without permission from the NCAA . So it is up to the Home school to put forward the funding for the Playoff game .

Hilton has said in the past that he will not bid on a first round game.
