    You submit a proposed budget, of which 75% of the net receipts must be greater than the minimum financial guarantees.

    Basically they want lots of people there spending lots of money for tickets, and a stadium where weather isn't an issue might be a plus.

    got it...thanks! I think you could assume a sellout and I think you could assume average $20 a ticket. So $20 x 18,700 seats is $374,000.00 x .75 of net receipts = $280,500.

    You must charge no less than what you did during the regular season for a ticket.

    For students, if they got in "free" I believe the minimum that you can charge them is $10

    Then after it is a crap shoot pending who is good that year.
    So what happens if UNI and NDSU would end up in the same game and assuming UNI is not seated in the top 5? Who would get the game?

    That would be crazy. Of course we need to win Saturday of course so let's not jinx us.

    Teams from the same conference won't be matched up in the opening rounds.

    The earliest UNI and NDSU could be matched up is the quaters.

    The winners of the opening round get sent to the seeds, and teams from the same conference can't both play their first games against each other. That means since UNI won't get a seed this year, and the two can't meet in the opening round it would be at earliest quaters, and that would mean one at least one of us got put in a PIG and knocked off a seed.

    However, if the two do meet and neither one is a seed that would be interesting.

    NDSU does have a bigger place, but UNI has the history behind their name with the draw. I would think it would go to the "higher ranked team" or some crazy shit like that.

    Interesting senario though.
