Two Large Universities, Georgia State (GSU) and Colorado State (CSU)

Two large universities, Georgia State (GSU) and Colorado State (CSU), dominate college baseball. Each baseball program aggressively recruits the best athletes to attend the university, but the best athletes can skip college and jump immediately to professional baseball. Each school has two options: it can either illegally pay top players to enroll and thus increase the winning percentage of the team, or it can follow the rules and lose the top players to the professional ranks. The table shows the payoffs in terms of winning percentage that each school would achieve based on its recruiting decision, given the recruiting decision of its rival.
