Or, just practice for special teams more next summer. Maybe work on 2 point plays (as in actually use them for it) and be ready to play when the ball is kicked off?

Imagine we played week zero this year, and Masson smith injures his knee there. Oh man oh man this website would have been juicy on how we got screwed having to play a week 0 game.

That can happen in any rent-a-win game. The benefits of playing week zero outweigh the risks of a random freak injury.
Oh, I don’t disagree! I was more so talking about the complaints we’d hear from the lunatics in our fan base!

Nvm , answered first post of this page.

Going forward, schedule a cupcake that plays Hawaii every year in Week 0 until they change the stupid rule and just allow everyone 2 byes.

You can only play a week zero game if Hawaii is involved in someone’s schedule.

That would be fine with me. We can do home and home and I will go on the road trip.

Cannot be done as Grambling does not play at Hawaii
you can still petition the NCAA to play a Week 0 game

Great idea until starting QB blows his knee out in a meaningless game. Would be meltdown of epic proportions..
But it's not a meaningless game. It's a game to prepare us for a team like Florida St.

Regardless of what the criteria is for Week 0, it’s Ausberry’s job to figure it out and adjust.

If that's his job, he's failed for the last 10 years.

And he sent his 4* and 5* kids elsewhere.

Personally, I like Verge. He's a nice guy. But it's time for a change.
