Go LU! Beat Army!!

We need something ketchy that could make this game an important one. Playing Army will be amazing, especially in the Bill.

That would make Army's open dates the dates LU plays North Texas Could always play a double header You know I'm always trying to think outside the box
Would LOVE to see LU play all of the Service Academies Except theCoast Guard because I don't think they have a team

USCGA has a D3 team. I have had friends play for them and I believe the Flames may have battled them back in the 70s. But I will let someone look that up if they have free time.

Army is going to happen. Just waiting to hear the years.

Recent 12%.budget cut for USCGA probably crushed their athletic budget. :lol:

Might be something to look at. We had to do it the past two years because of the small region we were placed in. Not good for high school, maybe college. We played our rival. First game was non-region, second counted as a region game.

Sounds like a pretty solid idea...

Well,looks like we are going to get to know the Aggies well. Best part of this is that while helping us greatly to meet our schedule requirements for FBS transition, these are 4 WINNABLE games. 8) ( Of course, I'm sure the people in Las Cruces are saying the same thing). Kudos to Ian, Mickey, TG and the crew.

And we have the opportunity to win the outright championship of the State of New Mexico!

Seriously, I am excited to have a cheap flight road game from Houston. As I was mentioning to one of our posters earlier today, I may even turn it into a long weekend road trip with Big Bend or Carlsbad Caverns. Can anyone say Marfa?

I had heard that 2018 would likely have a home-and-home with the Aggies but was hoping we could fill 2019 without having to do it again. Perhaps that is why the ink was not dry on the contract as of a week ago.

Where Mrs. Cider and I spent our "bat cave honeymoon" in 1986 before she went back to grad school at Marshall for the summer. :oldhag
