9/4/2027 SOUTH CAROLINA - Williams-Brice Stadium: 77,559 (18th)
(Ranking within the 25 largest capacity stadiums in college football for the 2024 season)
Almost 700,000 eyeballs on the <F> LIVE + viewership on (most likely nationally broadcast live + multiple replays) the SEC & ACC Network (both owned and operated by ESPN/ABC/Disney) - seems fairly "brand exposure" adjacent for the <F>... No?

I wonder if football gets to keep the revenue from these games or we have to give it back the athletics department to fund the other programs?

Can't hit a HR unless your willing to step up to the plate......daunting to say the least, but it is games like this that keep the other programs functioning at Furman. Sacrificial lambs.....the $700 K paydays go a long way....if used correctly.
The Ole Miss $$ was probably used to get the Bball back and forth, room and board for the NIT fiascos in Texas....Gracias
But, we have beaten....UCF, USC, NC State (a couple of times), tied GA Tech in the past. But with no Academic restrictions, paying players, etc. it would be best if we played these games the 2nd to last week of the year...the week before there rivalry games, when they are beat down from SEC play and looking ahead.
I can remember when the Bball played a difficult schedule during the Joe Williams Glory years and beat UNC and NC State in back to back to back nights and UNC two years in a row......Dean was pisssssssssed
