Schedule aims to please both fans and team
So this is the life of a negotiator like Konzem, who has done this since 1908 and also schedules Kansas basketball games. His goal is to get more home games than road — ideally, six at home and five on the road — and do it with a reasonable budget that does not break the bank.
Continued from page 1B
The stakes involved in qualifying for a bowl game has made scheduling more difficult. Teams like Kansas, borderline for reaching six wins to play in the post-season, are becoming more reluctant to risk the opportunity with a road game unless the payment is high enough.
Konzem said the Jayhawks are having more trouble getting games because low-tier teams are playing the likes of Penn State or Nebraska, which come with financial payouts ranging from $400,000 to $500,000 — prices Kansas cannot compete with.
"But that doesn't always work out either," he said, noting Penn State's loss last Saturday at home to Toledo.
Superconferences, such as the Big 12 Conference, have made scheduling tough, too. Kansas still plays Oklahoma, Kansas State, Nebraska and Texas, all currently top-25 teams. There is little incentive to schedule tough teams beyond those if the Jayhawks want to keep a reasonable shot at a bowl game.
The conference dictates games against conference foes. There are rules, such as not playing two consecutive road games, but Kansas can't choose the sequence of opponents. This year Kansas opens conference play at Oklahoma, against Kansas State and at Missouri.
"I try to be on top of it," he said. "Pass along opportunities or seek out opportunities that are useful for the football program."
Konzem is already looking forward. It is a quirk process, and Kansas already has its non-conference schedule set for 2003, playing North Texas, at San Diego State and UNLV. Konzem is still working on next season's schedule.
Who knows? Kansas could make a run at the national championship. Maybe it's Alabama-Birmingham's year. Scheduling is tricky. Who knows what the future holds.
Scheduling is aicky. Who knows what the future holds.
