Wait, most of the ticket holders were bitching if it DID include the game.

Only if ESPN sets up shop in Fort Worth for the week since it is a Opening/Special game as how this is being hyped. If not, it will get the same coverage with the media, recruits, etc if the game were played at ACS.

My fear is that this turns out to be a LSU situation where we only get one bite at the apple and that bite comes during a down year. Our one shot at LSU came during our 4-8 season, and we got no shot at revenge.
If that game had stayed a home and home, we would have had LSU at home during our 12-1 2014 season. A OOC win over LSU might have been the thing that bumped us in to the play offs that year.

I don't have one single complaint about this. Some of you are an absolute beating.

Really?Season ticket holders just got screwed big time. Ohio State for ??? Probably nothing as that game takes the slot on the schedule.

Every season ticket holder probably just took a $500 plus per ticket hickey on this deal. Is that more than $5 mill?

After paying a boatload at jerryworld in the fourth deck to see tcu vs lsu never again will I do so. The place will be full of Ohio fans vs a tcu home game and that's sad

To be fair AGC would have been full of Ohio State fans too since we all know that every good seat is sold on stub hub by the Frog illuminati.

The more you look at this deal the worse it is for season ticket holders, extremely bad in fact:
The facts: TCU loses one home game on the schedule and replaced with nothing, absolutely nothing.
That home game was with Ohio State.
What do you think the value of a ticket to an Ohio State game at ACS was worth?
My guess on a low end was $500, but you know many of those were worth over $2,000 with zero in return.
TCU got their money so the $5 mill is a plus to them but at what cost to the season ticket holders?
First off if they now want to see the game it will cost an extra?
Second they lose 100% of the value of their original tickets.
How many season ticket holders? 30,000 on low end?
Initial value lost is 30,000 time $500 or $15,000,000
Add the cost to purchase new tickets and basically CDC out the season ticket holders big time for a lousy $5 mill

You just lost about $1,000 per ticket if you go to the game.

My season tickets cost $300 each. That's $50 per for a six game season. In no way would an Ohio State ticket have a value of $500-$2000 to me. I wouldn't sell it. So I'm out nothing. I'm not forced to go to Jerry World. Again out nothing. Too many assumptions in your argument for me.
I get everyone is disappointed. We are still playing Ohio State though.

You get nothing in return for giving up one game, so you are out that at least. However you are not looking at the FMV of what you lost, if you are only looking at dollars spent yes you are out through not much, but looking at the FMV of what you lost you lose big time.
Basically you could have sold your tickets and still be in the same boat because there is no replacement.
