Sorry guys, Shippensburg is booked for both of your opening dates.

[RagingTireFire]

I say whoever it is needs to come here. And there's no way in Tartarus that I want to play 'Nova. They rarely have that great a record but, on any given day, those guys are the most dangerous team in the country.

[jcmanson]

We can narrow down Jon's list by a few teams pretty easily.

I know you can mark App off the list.

[PAmedic]

I just did some looking around to see who has Sep 6 open as well, and so far I've found Maine, Northeastern, Rhode Island, and Villanova.

'Nova AT 'Nova would be just fan-freakin'-tastic for me.

thank you Santa

yeah but the flip side of that is WHEN we beat them, we really gain some respect from those considering the "at-large" bids

[BJWilliams]

Eastern Kentucky was an 07 playoff team so if we could get them (and win) that would look very good in our portfolio for a playoff berth in 08

[Sly Fox]

Are we ruling out an FBS matchup in '08? I'd certainly like to see a winnable contest against a I-A foe.

[jcmanson]

From what I've heard, we aren't playing one next year.

[ToTheLeft]

Aug 30 - NGU
Sept 06 - Open (this will likely be filled)
Sept 13 - @ WCU
Sept 20 - NC Central
Sept 27 - @ YSU
Oct 04 - Open (this will likely stay open)
Oct 11 - Stony Brook
Oct 18 - @ PC
Oct 25 - CSU
Nov 01 - GWU
Nov 08 - @ VMI
Nov 15 - @ CCU
Nov 22 - Elon

I like how our only homestand is going to be against some of our easier competition. :\

Well, unless that 9/6 game is filled at home (let's hope) and against someone rather beatable. (but on out level)

That game will get us off to a good start with a W.

[jcmanson]

Leo, you have to remember what our home games were this past year. Nothing can be worse, well except for VMI and Coastal, they're always fun to play.

[SuperJon]

Elon's a great home game, and Stony Brook is a good home game. I know they're not back to back, but they're good games. Stony Brook or CSU will be homecoming. I'm thinking it'll be Stony Brook. Fall break will be on the open week.

[Chris Lang]

Richmond is very unlikely for next season, but is in the conversation for 09. There was still some talk about a weaker FBS team for next year as well. Last time I talked to JB, he said they were close to finishing it.

[jcmanson]

Ok, weaker FBS team. We need to find a weaker FBS team with an open date. Get on it people.

[Chris Lang]

I should have said closer to finishing the schedule, not necessarily finishing a deal with a weaker FBS team. That was poor sentence construction. I should be ashamed.

I'll lobby for a trip to Florida Atlantic myself.

[jcmanson]

I looked around to some other teams from non-BCS conferences this side of the Mississippi, and Marshall is looking for a game, Kent State's fans want them to drop Cincy to play a IAA. I also looked up UAB, Temple, and Duke, none of whom are looking for a game. That's all I've got so far.

Look up some Sunbelt teams

[Sly Fox]

FAU isn't the weak FBS that they used to be. Personally I think a trip to Rice would fit the bill and let Coach Wach see some old friends.

B/c I'm too lazy

[Cider Jim]

So are we scheduled to play only one DII school next year, instead of our usual two?

[jcmanson]

Yes, Coach has said many times he doesn't want to play 2 d2's every year. We've had a hard time getting other FCS teams to schedule us. From here on out, for the most part, we should only be playing 1 d2.

[Knucklehead]

I still say let's play Duke or Temple

[MacGeek]

im pretty sure the schedule is not laid out like that, flafan was just listing who we were playing.

wow don't i feel like a big dummy
