The NCAA closed the loophole. The lack of scrimmages for charity this year backs that up. Quote

HuskerFever Posted October 9, 2018 Report Posted October 9, 2018 The NCAA didn't ban the ability to play a "charity" game, capitalism did. Universities will find any arbitrage opportunity to get in a free game, even if that means putting on a facade that they're doing it for the good of hurricane victims. Quote
khoock Posted October 9, 2018 Report Posted October 9, 2018 I understand why they wouldnt want to sacrifice their exhibition game, but why not the secret scrimmage? Do the schools make any money off of the "secret scrimmage"? If not, why not make it a charity game. You get more of a game like setting and make money for a good cause. Quote

You get the opportunity to practice situational ball. My understanding is that it is more akin to a practice/scrimmage than a game. Winning/losing is less important than improving by/through playing comparable competition. khoock 1 Quote
OmahaHusker Posted October 11, 2018 Report Posted October 11, 2018 Nebraska projected as 2.5 point dogs in our scrimmage with Iowa State per Three Man Weave. Don't agree with them, but still credit where it's due throwing this all together. hhcmatt 1 Quote

Norm Peterson Posted October 11, 2018 Report Posted October 11, 2018 It would be interesting to be a fly on the wall when Jacobson is in the game. Guessing he'll want to go into beast mode against his old mates. Quote
