Which means you can absolutely rule out and Drake unless we are paying them to come up. Stetson is not coming up. talked with their eq guy. their schedule is done.

[Sly Fox]

Stetson & Houston Baptist really want to get their legs under them before they start making trips to Lynchburg.

exactly. lots of sub DI's the first couple of years. for stetson, mercer, and HBU.

[BJWilliams]

MOrgan State just released their schedule and we play them September 14 in Lynchburg

[Sly Fox]

I would expect ours to be released shortly as well.

Please keep in mind that the caliber of opponents we will be hosting at Williams Stadium will increase exponentially once we land in an FBS league. We'll settle for quantity over quality in our home dates this fall. Which frankly is not such a bad thing.

As long as we win those games

[Sly Fox]

We will likely be favored in all seven home games as opposed to our first three road match-ups.

[BJWilliams]

Just missing the 10/12 matchup and the announcement of the dates for homecoming weekend (paging HMO for that information...)

[Damien Sordelett]

Just checked Norfolk State's schedule and it looks like that Sept. 14 date with Liberty is the Spartans' bye. http://www.nsuspartans.com/schedule.asp ... chedule=86&

[BJWilliams]

Morgan State announced that we are playing them on that day Damien...probably were talking to other MEAC schools after the NSU return trip was cancelled or what have you

[01LUGrad]

I'm still upset the NSU game was scratched. I guess having 2 LU games within 10 minutes of my house this year was too good to be true. Oh, well.

[BJWilliams]

Talked to one of the guys on AGS who does the schedule matrix for CSJ and looks like our only options are transitional D1 Incarnate Word or Jacksonville (who we will have to pay an arkload of money to add a 7th away game) for the opening on October 12th

[ALAFlamesFan]

That Brevard game will be a nail biter. That will be a can't miss home game! I predict 9,000 in attendance.

[SuperJon]

FBS ready with a terrible schedule.

Unfortunately the good games are all away with the exception of Coastal. The good news is, we should know on 10/19 if we are playoff bound or not. Looks like a 9-2 or 8-3 season, don't see an at large bid possibility.

[jbock13]

I heard a rumor that College GameDay is coming on September 28'th.

[sigmo7]

5 - 0 in the BSC is all i care about. the chance of us getting an at large bid has never been good. before i came around it looked as though LU had the record to get in several times but didn't. my wallet will take 7 home games against anybody vs 1 or 2 far away road games against better teams. i've still not fully recovered from the Montana trip.hahaha although i will go where ever the schedule says we are playing. the past 3 years have gone by so fast i want to savor these final 2

[01LUGrad]

ODU just landed a home game with NC State in 2015. Maybe they will be looking past us for that game...

[flamesfilmguy]

smh....

[PAmedic]

this has been a horrendous 2 wks for LU sports

I had to spend 3 hrs at the range today to get some aggression out

[lawrenceq]

I think Liberty needs to play all FCS and FBS schools to prepare for the move up.

[olldflame]

Easy to say, hard to do. FBS games are always going to be on the road. Unless you need the money like CSU, I see no reason to Schedule more than one. I´m sure HCTG and JB did everything they could to try to fill those 7 home dates with FCS games. Bottom line is there is no benefit to scheduling less than the allowed 12 games, so if you can´t get FCS teams to come, you play the teams who will.

[jbock13]

Truth is, we're sort of like the Boise of FCS. Nobody wants to play us because it's not considered a quality win, or a quality loss. Thus we have to schedule D2's. For example, JMU beat a Big South team. If they lose, then it hurts. For example, can you believe JMU lost to a Big South team?

I know, we all have a perception that we're more than this. But on the outside, that's not how we're viewed. And whether it's true or its false, the perception is all that matters in the universe.
