    BiS - Not Air Force

    The Air Force game at K2 fell through, and the Falcons are not the foe in the Battle in Seattle. In short, it remains in the works, there is not an opponent yet.

    Just fyi.

    Wow!

    How mysterious and exciting! Per another thread (which could of course be complete BS) they are supposed to announce details on BIS on June 25th at Hoopfest, so either the BIS people are very good at keeping secrets, or it must be one hell of a scramble on the telephone lines over the next 9 days to locate an opponent for GU at the BIS.

    "Hello Kansas? Are you busy on December 12th? Would you and your team like the opportunity to watch guys throwing salmon? Have I got a deal for you!"

    Go Bulldogs! Get Bigger!
    Do not go gentle into that good night,
    Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

        It is my factually unsubstantiated conclusion that Air Force decided it was very adverse to its health to play in K2 (much the same conclulsion apparently reached by 99.9% of BCS schools).

          Air Force is not a BCS school.

            I don't think VA said it was.
            FOO!

              Thanks wazZag! If memory serves the only BCS schools to venture into K2 were Stanford and Virginia.

                  That would be an awesome game, I wish the two teams did do a home and home.

                  I'll say this about Emmert at UW, he's done a great job destroying the football program so it's no surprise that this series isn't scheduled.

                    Bol Kong vs. the rest of the team. That'd be a great matchup.

                      I have a feeling we could see Kentucky in the BiS soon...

                        2010

                        If I am reading BobZ correctly from another post :

                        "The Illini series is a four-year deal with the next game in Seattle .."

                        it looks like we know who the 2010 BIS opponent will be.

                          Yep

                          The Illini series is a four-year deal with the next game in Seattle, then to Champaign, Ill., in year three and back to the Kennel in year four.

                            Big East

                            Although depleted from last season, I would love to see us play a Big East team in the BiS again. The physical play would be a wake up call for a young team playing on the "finesse" coast.
