So you're telling me that their W over a DII that is a part of their 6-3 record has not been a booster for their #13 ranking? :dontgetit

Not at all. They're getting credit for being Montana. Indiana State has a couple of DII wins and a winning record overall and they're not ranked.

I as much as anyone dont want to see us schedule a DII school but I also acknowledge that we still are a team that the big guys see as "nothing to gain and everything to lose" by playing us...especially in Lynchburg. Im sure that Mr Barber and the folks in athletics are working hard to make sure that doesnt happen but if it does I know that Im not gonna pull my hair out and throw people under the bus over it, or beat my head against the nearest wall...

I think there needs to be a permanent list of posters who should not be taken seriously.

I know who is first on that list.

If we can fill one spot with a solid FCS team like ODU or W&M I wouldn't have a problem getting a D-II to fill the last spot. Obviously it would be better to have a St. Francis type FCS team. Think about our schedule this year and we are ranked 12th after loosing 2 games. If our schedule next year came out like this we would be fine.

9/3 @ NC State
9/10 RMU
9/17 JMU
9/24 D-II
10/1 W&M or ODU
10/8 bye?
10/15 Coastal
10/22 @ Charleston Southern
10/29 Presby
11/5 VMI
11/12 @ Gardner-Webb
11/19 @ SBU

I'm thinking the WM/ODU game will be on the road.

One would assume. I was just taking 09 literally, since he didn't have an @ next to that date.

Pretty sure ODU has said they won't play us "in anything" (even tho they schedule us in baseball).

W&M already has games scheduled for 9/24, 10/1 and 10/8. So unless we're able to shift one of our other games, we won't be playing them either.

According to a thread over at CAA Zone, W&M has non-conference games with VMI, Virginia and Penn next year. So the Tribe is full.

Don't they play us in basketball with at least a fair bit of regularity? I can think of several games.
They were forced to with Bracketbusters, and anything prior may have been a previous administration.
