OK, my point is, why play them at all? Why give them a paycheck? If you look at their starters, almost all (except for 1A transfers) are guys that we looked at and passed on. If UNI sucked, those guys would be walking on to ISU or iowa. I root against UNI every game. I want them to turn into Drake. I have no problem playing one 1AA team, as they will not require a return game. BUT, that 1AA team should not be UNI.
other 1AA teams may request more money than UNI does, and we wont get near the crowd. The top two crowds in the history of Iowa State football are against UNI. That is HUGE money!
We are already scheduled to play them in 2010, 2011, 2013, 2015
