Tough as nails? It's a very good schedule, but for a Socon team, it's about normal I'd say! 7 home games is sweet, especially having Furman, GSU and ASU at home. OOC sans USF seems quite manageable.

I would say that schedule is almost below average for socon...

1 fbs
1 d2
2 fcs (non auto bid)

not really all that special... then again asu's will look very similar so i shouldnt say much

Having Michigan on the sched gives us free pass on a couple dinks.

Interesting. The last team to leave the Big South plays the newest member of the Big South before any of the current Big South members do.

Elon will be a home game for Stonybrook in 2008. Mid September I believe.

First post here, I guess you have to pop your cherry sometime. I was wondering why Elon bought out of their return trip to Towson this year. We had to replace you guys with CCSU. I thought it was a great game veruse to very good conferences in two great venues. It will be missed.

Small? compared to what?
We can get 12k and have in the place,
which is not bad for an enrollment of 5k.
Ok,It's not Kidd Brewer but and your attendence 22-24k avg. the last couple of years is outstanding. So take the complement. xthumbsupx
BTW We still play on solid grass!!!!

Plus, I love how schools with success like to talk about how many people do or don't come to teams that have been down on their luck lately. I mean, there was a point where Western was averaging really high, now, they are down in the dumps and pulling what what we do on a yearly basis, and we're down in the dumps too.

Plus, App fans are making their "atmosphere" basis off two games they've played at our place in 3 years. Both the last games of the season, both in dismal seasons

But for some reason, our attendance is of mmuch bigger concern than Western or even UTC.
