A Weber State fan is claiming they now have a game against VT on September 11, 2010. I can't find anything official though.

[BJWilliams]

Well we know for sure all but two of our games for next year (the NCCU game is in flux and last I checked we sill needed one other game. Somebody closer to the AD *Athletic Department* feel free to correct me on that if need be)

[Keenan]

I think Lang was going to follow up with Rutigliano awhile back, but never saw anything on the N&A website or FF. I know for sure we're playing @ Ball State, but anyone else have a quick rundown of the '10 schedule?

[SumItUp]

I think Lang was going to follow up with Rutigliano awhile back,

Paul Rutigliano spearheads the scheduling for the football team.

This is what I know:

4-Sep St Francis (Pa)
11-Sep @ Ball State
18-Sep NCCU
25-Sep JMU
2-Oct
9-Oct Charleston Southern
16-Oct @ VMI
23-Oct
30-Oct @ Presbyterian
6-Nov Gardner-Webb
13-Nov @ Coastal Carolina
20-Nov Stony Brook

Not 100% sure if it's at JMU and/or at NCCU. If NCCU stays on, then we still need one more game.

[Chris Lang]

VT's not happening.

[LUGrad2000]

Would have been nice to play VT.

Life long FSU Seminole, but would HATE them for sixty minutes if LU ever played them.

[JMUDukes]

As far as I know the JMU/LU game next year is STILL @ LU

[Chris Lang]

It's at JMU, actually, according to one of my sources.

[JMUDukes]

Interesting. Will attempt to confirm this for sure with some people I know in the JMU AD

[Chris Lang]

It keeps switching back and forth. Could change again. Who knows?

Northeastern's decision to drop football just opened up a number of school's schedule. They were set to open at UConn on 9/2. We have St. Francis booked on the 4th for our season opener. I'm still trying to figure what other schools had dates booked with them. We'll have to wait until the CAA makes a decision on how to handle 2010 before we know which CAA schools now have a free date on our two open dates.

[SuperJon]

Oh oh oh, I get to do my best Sly Fox impersonation:

We may have more than tone game to fill.

[Sly Fox]

Yeah, realize that and it has been widely noted on here. But I love seeing you get in the zone.

[Chris Lang]

NCCU was tenuous at best, so that doesn't surprise me.

[Sly Fox]

He did use the word 'may', Chris.

[Chris Lang]

Yeah, I know. It's just that every time I've talked to Paul or Danny about the schedule, neither seem all that confident that the NCCU game is actually going to happen.

[blwall1416]

This is what I know:

4-Sep St Francis (Pa)

18-Sep NCCU

Ugh, on these two...especially Sept. 4.

[BJWilliams]

Well Im sorry that we couldnt have Villanova make the trip...I know there is a need to upgrade the schedule but we cant be too choosy about games at this point. we need one more game (probably two) and its been discussed ad nauseum ad infinitum on here about not getting DII or lower schools on the schedule so at this point Im hoping to see an all DI final schedule come February or March even if it means having to play somebody like Central Connecticut State. If we continue to improve we'll draw teams back like Elon and App State and Delaware and McNeese State and William&Mary and other top teams to improve the SoS.

An opponent from the CAA seems like it could be a possibility. Northeastern is announcing that they are dropping football. Another team besides JMU from the CAA would be great.

[rueful]

saw a post talking about what teams would need to reschedule a game now that Northeastern is done, so figured id repost this from AGS

2010
James Madison (H)
Maine (H)
Hofstra (H)
Delaware (A)
UMass (A)
New Hampshire (A)
Rhode Island (A)
Richmond (H) (Week 4)
Connecticut (H)

2011
CCSU (A)
Holy Cross (A) (Week 1)
2012
Colgate (H) (Week 2)

[Cider Jim]

Gosh, I would LOVE to see us play either Maine or Richmond.

[Schfourteenteen]

Those are all conerence games though, unless we want to pick up UConn or CCSU

[SuperJon]

Richmond should be a pretty real possibility (I would think)...we would get to play in their nice new facility on campus. And I could rub it in my gf's face when we win.

Yeah, that won't happen. Richmond won't play us. In anything. That's why so many people were exciting about the possibility of going to Richmond for the playoffs. Richmond thinks they're better than us and they don't want to lower to our level by playing us.

[Schfourteenteen]

NE dropping football doesnt open up a game for Richmond.

And we all know they wouldnt play us if they didnt have to (Thank goodness!)
