Scheduling easy victories is a tradition as timeless in college football as fight songs and homecoming. But after the National Collegiate Athletic Association approved the addition of a 12th regular-season game for the coming season, the appearance fees began climbing in a bidding war for games against college football’s flotsam and jetsam.The college I went to had a football team so bad that when the coach went on to greater things he went to the University of Chicago, which didn't have a football team at all.It appears, though, we have lost our title to Buffalo.
More's the pity. Buffalo can earn $500,000 per game by showing up to lose. What I'm wondering is, how many times they'd have to get drubbed to make more than whoever wins, say, the Orange Bowl.
