In the article it states that the 2014 and 2017 games were agreed through contract in 2008. It also notes that ND has tried to cancel both games, but ASU will only allow canceling the 2017 game.

4 weeks 6 days ago	ND needed schedule	ND needed schedule flexibility with their move to the ACC. They had no buyout for the UM-ND series. Dropping Michigan made the most sense. I don't think it's any more complicated than that. I don't buy that ND "chickened-out". Sure, it was a funny remark by Hoke and reflects the disappointment among the UM faithful. Personally, I am the least bit disappointed in severing ties with ND.
4 weeks 6 days ago	I would like to point a few	I would like to point a few things regarding MSU and ND's future schedules: MSU and ND are going on a two year hiatus for 14', 15' and then again 20', 21'. So for at least one of those years (15') ND has effectively dropped UM and MSU for Texas. We will see if the ND-UM series continues in 20' when ND misses out on MSU and adds Texas. ND should really get half credit for scheduling Texas. I know they added a few other games and we will see how their ACC portion of the schedule shapes up. Basically ND is a chicken leg. I often, not specifically on this board, see many praising MSU's scheduling of Oregon, Alabama and Miami(FL). Oregon and Miami effectively replace ND in 14' and 15' and 20' and 21', respectively. MSU was forced to schedule or at least try to schedule a marquee match-up with ND off the schedule. Kudos to them for getting a big name but they've held strong to the 1 marquee non-conference game model. As for scheduling Alabama, well let's see if they stay on the schedule. MSU currently has 4 non-conference games scheduled in 16' and 17'. With the additional B1G game, they have to get rid of one non-B1G. Now, I don't know the contractual details between ND and MSU series, but if it is a anything similar to that of the ND-UM series, financially, it may make more sense for MSU to drop ND. I assume that the lesser opponents have a relatively sizable buyout and MSU would have two less home games. I also assume that the buyout for Alabama is also fairly sizable, but MSU would have one less home game. Then, like I noted above, there is a chance that MSU has no buyout with ND. Does Hollis hand a letter to Swarbrick before the game this season? On a somewhat unrelated note, I would really like to see Brandon eat next year's game in South Bend. Schedule another home game against whoever and cover the debt from the buyout.
