ISU could have done much better. Especially now with a whole host of schools in the Carolinas also needing to make up games.
NC State
VaTech
East Carolina
UNC
South Carolina
Marshall
Just to name a few. Hammer out a deal to return a game or go on the road now and have them return a future game. Any of these would have created a much more entertaining matchup almost with a Bowl feel.
As a Wolfpack fan I’m hoping the Pack can work out a matchup during conf championship weekend (assuming participants don’t make the title game). For example would be fun that weekend to have the Pack and Hokies play Friday night in Charlotte with the ACC title game the next day. Would be a festive environment with four fanbases in town together.
Probably wont happen but just thinking out loud. Definitely want a better solution than Iowa State created.
