Man who want to see the Del game. The A&T vs Bethune-Cookman is much more interesting. Hell I may not even attend the A&T vs Del st its on a Thursday too. The visiting side of the stadium will be ghost town.
I am in favor of the wildcard option# that a nice.

Trues, I don't know what is so special about the Del St - A&T game. It seems like every other year, they have us playing them on TV. At least the Aggie/Eagle game will be on TV, although I will likely be there live (lord willing).

Unfortunately one wildcard datenis our open week, but the other is the BCU game, which I'm sure will get flexed into broadcast.

It wouldn't be a big revenue game on a Saturday.

If both teams live up to expectations, you just about bet the farm that the November 16th wildcard will be the A&T-BCU game. Also keep in mind there will be plenty of FCS games involving MEAC teams that will be streamed through ESPN3 and ESPN Plus that aren't even on this MEAC listing.

They need to market this game, Triad high school day. Super discounted tickets to high school students. Also, invite the community marching bands.

Man you preaching to the choir Aggie monster and I have been saying this for years. You know the visiting side is going to be empty while not sell those seats for $15 a pop for high schools, church groups or the rainbow coalition whoever to make us some money.

I'm of the impression, the conference is trying to create balance. They don't want to have a dominate program. It is not unknown as to AD Hilton's ambitions.

what i don't understand is why they scheduled nccu for more games than us!! I was wondering that also . The only way I see it is that it is a build up to the A&T vs NCCU game at the end of the season provided both teams are winning . For the last few years except the undefeated season . The A&T vs NCCU game basically decided the MEAC Champion with the other exception being FAMU vs BCU 2018 but even then it was winner takes all . Let NCCU have that air time because the air time I look forward to is the CB .
