Does anyone know why the shazbot! we scheduled Emporia State as a regular season game? JFC.
$$$$
Will that really make us that much money?
It won't be bad. Consider concessions and parking and you are looking at a decent chunk of change, and I'm sure our payout to Emporia State is very little. Much better for us than having to pay more money to bring in an lower tier D1 team like Arkansas Pine Bluff, which would've been the alternative to scheduling ESU. In today's world of having exempt tournaments every season and 14-15 nonconference games on the schedule, playing one of the state's lower division teams doesn't hurt at all. JMHO.
