The Bulldogs will pay the Aggies a $650,000 guarantee for playing the game, according to the copy of the contract.

While 650k is alot of money, the game is 9 years away, do these contracts compensate for inflation?

TOO little money. I am not a fan of these games and would never schedule one with a top 25 program. Of course SC State has played Clemson..but I would not

i agree. by the time "inflation" kicks in, it'll probably be worth a good deal less than $650k, perhaps $500k instead. back in 2013 when famu played at ohio state, they got $900k (almost a million dollars) and that was 8 years ago. granted, they had to travel farther but still, i'm just sayin'...

btw, famu loss that ohio state money game 76-0! oooooooooooooooouch!! makes you wonder if that level of "humiliation" is worth the money, its definitely not worth any "serious" injuries.
i like the way coach broadway picked fbs schools to play. it didn't pay as well, but at least most of the games were "winnable" (i.e., kent state, unc charlotte) and ecu was probably also scheduled before he retired. we took tough losses at unc and tulsa under coach broadway but nothing remotely close to getting a 76-0 "whupping"...

Just think my Granddaughter who entering the 10th grade could have gotten he degree from A&T. We could have won 5 FCS Championship and now top 20 FBS program. I don't know what we look like in 2030 but I do know what we look like now .let's make this the start of something GREAT AGGIE PRIDE
