Re: Future Schedules

Anybody have any dates or opponents (even tentative ones) for 2018, 2019, and 2020 football?

All I have is:
Sept 15, 2018 at Iowa
Oct 6, 2018 NDSU
Aug 31, 2019 at Iowa State.

Will 09/15/2018 be the last time UNI faces Iowa?

Why do we already know the date of the NDSU game in 2018? This seems odd, but I'm sure there's a reason.

Because conference schedules are already sent through 2019. Some schools have no problems giving that information out. Others guard theirs schedules, our department having been one of them.

I'm convinced there are years that our old leadership would have preferred to announce our schedule as it happened - like, a couple days before each game. There was a 4 or 5 year stretch our football program was the last in the FCS to announce it. We'd all know the schedule because everyone else put their out and it was as simple as "Where's the UNI game", but it would be another month or so before we announced it.

For whatever reason our department insists on doing it as some big full schedule reveal. That worked before the internet. Now everyone knows, and sitting on the full schedule for weeks, after is already out there, is annoying.

It's almost a UNI schedule. At least 2 of the first 3 on the road, plus the top half of the conference up front.

Their OOC isn't done yet, but it does include UD at home to open the season.

This is good news.

Ahhhh! Thank goodness the Big Ten came to their senses. This will be a big gain for UNI and for Iowa also. David Harris is on the phone right now I would assume.

Just a reminder, UNI got $400,000 or 20 percent of net ticket receipts, whichever is greater. This was the same in 2016. Anyone know what the actual check was in 2016?

I don't know about last year, but this years 61,500 tickets (sellout) times the $60 I paid for my literally as far back as possible seats is $3,690,000. 20% of which is 738,000. So one of the absolute lowest estimates is $750k. In reality, it's probably somewhere closer to $1.25 million.

Speaking of future schedule, is this the same agreement that the school has with Iowa? Because if so, that is a much larger payday. More seats, more expensive tickets.

I doubt the calculations are that simple (or the payday for UNI that large)

This is correct. ISU will work it to keep it at the minimum $400K. It will be pretty tough to claim a gate that isn't over $2 million though. That's $32.50 when I guess the face price was $60. I'd guess our payout will be around $500K.

I'd imagine that they also factor in student tickets, donor comps, and the average price of season tickets being less than face price. Plus, they use "net ticket receipts", which implies that it is different than gross receipts. I'm no accountant, but I'd bet it was not close to $1.25 million

You're both right, my mistake, I thought I read gross, not net.
