Hmmmmmmm... Interesting. We need to just schedule any FCS team that will take our money for the bye week. Heck, even another FBS team would be better than nothing.

100% not playing tomorrow. This was agreed upon between the teams. They'll have their eyes open for other teams to play throughout the year, but no guarantees. SDSU still gets paid. Akron probably not playing tomorrow at Nebraska because, per Pollard, "There are no hotels in Lincoln". Players serving a suspension will have this game count as their suspension served.
Edit:
To add more about playing tomorrow, neither coaches were real excited about throwing off next week's game prep in order to play the game tomorrow. Plus the forecast still looks bad.
This thread and these "make-up the game with no fans" posts are a prime example of day drinking turned into night drinking turned wrong.
Local Omaha news confirming Nebraska rescheduled their game for tomorrow at 10:30am.

This is all reasonable.
Except it does not address one more option --
Playing in Bergstrom tonight.
Can we play Kansas twiceAlso if we schedule another team, can it be an actual cupcake and not a UNI super bowl or NDSU situation?
Why does SDSU still get paid for this if they don’t want to play tomorrow?

who would randomly be available for another game throughout the year? Valley High?!?!?!Pollard in front of the media.

Well, Pollard is apparently wrong about Nebraska.
And SDSU shouldn't get full pay for this. Pollard say anything about refunding ticket holders? Guessing there is some legal mumbo jumbo on the backs of the tickets that says something to cover the AD in this type of situation.

Am I the only one that would rather keep our bye week. Think bigger picture people. The Big12 looked like crap this week. Focus on getting to the title gamePollard said they will look at scheduling another team for October 20.
