The scenarios outlined by Let's Talk for eleven and twelve game seasons are exactly what we should be doing.  This is the least attractive home schedule since our days as an independent.  Only Southern Illinois generates any excitement.  Combine that lousy schedule with the anger over Wofford's failures and you get a real mess.  That was reflected in the ticket sales from Saturday (only 10,000+ sold.)  The rain actually provided a convenient excuse for the lack of interest.  It will be worse for the next two dogs.  The athletic department brags about giving fans seven home games.  They really give us four games and three scrimmages, and they expect us to pay full freight for the latter.  Kinda like the NFL and their stupid exhibition games. :o
