Link?

Doesn't sound legit to me. I could definitely see us playing them home and home, but don't think they'd work as a money game.

It is an article posing a scenario for all Sun Belt teams and the advantages and disadvantages of BC scheduling one of them. There are links for each school that discusses pros and cons and the likelihood of a game.

Don't know why that guy went to that amount of trouble to say "BC isn't going to schedule any Sun Belt teams." He may well be right, but I think he's overestimating how appealing other schools find a trip to BC. They can't draw fans and they're not in good recruiting territory.

I've said before that I could see App potentially scheduling BC for a home-and-home. But for a single game, I doubt App would consider going up there much more than BC would consider coming down here.
