....Because at that time they didn't know if they were going to have a make up game. It took forever for things to play out and schedule the game. Therefore they went ahead and refunded the money. Imagine the outrage had Gamecock Club kept money any longer than it had to. Or if they said keep your tickets to the Marshall game, announced it to fall on Dec 1st, and that just happened to be when you're out of town on business, vacation, or can't go for various reasons. Then you're out money for tickets for something you can't attend. Better to go ahead and refund money now, that way you have options going forward. Pretty thoughtful if you ask me.
