Future FBS Games

[bostonspider]

Richmond has announced some further FBS games, and now it looks like between now and 2015 we have games for every year but one (2013). UR has Vandy in 2007 and 2015, Duke in 2009 and 2011, and UVA in 2008, 2010, 2012 and 2014. I would love to hear that UR had scheduled Wake Forest as the 2013 FBS opponent. Have other schools scheduled their FBS foes this far in advance??

[Seawolf97]

Nothing official for Stonybrook- but Rutgers in 2010 and USF in 2011. Hopefully word will come out during this season.

[TexasTerror]

SHSU has Kansas in 2008...
SFA travels to TCU in 2008...

Goddamn!!!!! FOUR dates with UVa???????

That just aint fair.

And a bonus of 2 Duke dates. You'd figure they wouldn't schedule you guys anymore but oh well....

I think we've got Duke in 2008, then UNC in 2009 and Maryland in 2011. (I could've switched the UNC and MD dates). That's all that's publically known as far as I know.

[Casey_Orourke]

Jerry has susposedly scheduled University of Washington for 2008, Oregon State 2009 and Arizona State in 2010. There is also talk that he is talking to schools in the SEC for additional OOC games.

[Eyes of Old Main]

I think Wofford is playing South Carolina in 2010 and 2014 and I think we play South Florida next season. There may be others, but I'm not sure.

[TheValleyRaider]

2008 at Buffalo is the only one listed on "Future Schedules", which goes 2008-11
We're playing Air Force in the near future, I think 2013. Supposedly we're also playing TCU someday in the future too, but that could just be a rumor I misheard or something.

[LarryBoy]

Off the top of my head, we have Virginia Tech next year, and South Carolina in '09 (the chickens finally answered our calls, 24 years after we stunned them). I'm pretty sure we have Florida sometime soon after that, and another bout with the tiggers of Clemscum.

[CopperCat]

I have a reliable source that tells me we are playing Minnesota sometime in the next couple of years. Beyond that, I have no idea what FBS teams we have on deck.

[ncbears]

Northern Colorado has Purdue in '08 and we're supposed to have Air Force in 2009.

[BearsCountry]

Missouri State

2008 - Oklahoma State
2009 - Arkansas
2010 - Kansas State

[catamount man]

2008 Florida State
2009 Vanderbilt
2010 NC State or North Carolina

GO CATAMOUNTS!!!

[Ronbo]

Last night on Fox Sports Terry Donahue said that if Western Carolina crosses the 50 against Alabama they should be given a ticker tape parade.xlolx

[813Jag]

We have the University of Houston in '08.

[thirdgendin]

According to Furman's game notes, here are the future FBS games we have lined up:

2008 - Virginia Tech
2009 - Auburn
2010 - South Carolina
2011 - Florida
2012 - Clemson
2014 - South Carolina

It looks like we have one every year except for 2013. I imagine we'll find an FBS game for that year as well.

[mainejeff]

Maine has Iowa in 2008 and rumored to be heading to BC again (2009?)

[Go Bison]

I have a reliable source that tells me we are playing Minnesota sometime in the next couple of years. Beyond that, I have no idea what FBS teams we have on deck.

Next year(Sept. 13th, 2008) you play Minnesota. NDSU has said to have a FBS team scheduled in 2008 but haven't released who it is yet. Rumors have been Wisconsin. In 2009, NDSU plays Iowa State.

[89Hen]

8/30/2008 - Maryland
11/14/2009 - Navy

BTW, intersting to note that Maryland will have played W&M, Villanova, Delaware and JMU in consecutive years and Towson one year later. They're trying for the CAA sweep!

[rjacks21]

SDSU

2008 - Iowa State
2009 - Minnesota

[jessesd]

Hofstra at Uconn Aug 28, 2008
Hofstra at BC Oct 9, 2010

The Florida Gators play FCS on:
Sept 1, 07 Western Kentucky (first year FBS)
Nov 22, 2008 The citadel (I may get to see the knobs cry like a girls after the spanking they'll get from the gators... I expect the score woul be worse than the one they got from the Criminoles since is a late in the season game)

[DTSpider]

8/30/2008 - Maryland
11/14/2009 - Navy

BTW, intersting to note that Maryland will have played W&M, Villanova, Delaware and JMU in consecutive years and Towson one year later. They're trying for the CAA sweep!

I've also heard Maryland mentioned with UR, possibly for the 2013 season. That would give them the entire CAA South.

[DTSpider]

I think we've got Duke in 2008, then UNC in 2009 and Maryland in 2011. (I could've switched the UNC and MD dates). That's all that's publically known as far as I know.

To be fair, the first 2 UVA games were already contracted, as were the Duke games (3 game contract) and Vandy (3 game contract (we're 2 into it)). So just the 2014 & 2015 games were extra.

UVA is good money too. I think next year is $200k, increasing by $50k each game. Not bad for a one hour drive. I've heard that UR is willing to accept lower amounts than other schools which is one reason we're scheduled so far out in advance.

[andy7171]

I've also heard Maryland mentioned with UR, possibly for the 2013 season. That would give them the entire CAA South.
I'm pretty sure that's what they are doing.

Towson's FBS schedule
2008 - Navy
2009 - Northwestern
2010 - Indiana
2011 - Maryland

Northwestern seems to be working through the CAA, though that might change if Northeastern surprises them.

[PeacockRaider]

Question for Monmouth Fans. Was reading that Rutgers has yet to find a
an FCS opponent for next year. Any chance that Monmouth gets a game with them. Would be a reach, but hey Howard played Rutgers last year who i would believe is on par or below Monmouth's talent. Would be a neat NJ game, and a great schedule for Monmouth

[citdog]

Clempson
Both Carolinas
Florida
Arizona

[Cobblestone]

URI has Boston College in 2008. I haven't heard of any beyond that.

[TTUEagles]

Tennessee Tech at Auburn Nov. 3, 2007
at Louisville in 2008
Rumored to be at Georgia in 2009 (but I doubt this one)

[FCS Preview]

According to the Hofstra message board, rumors are flying at the Buffalo board that Buffalo is going to drop Colgate and pick up Hofstra.

That could give Hofstra two FBS schools next year...

[CatFan22]

We have Minnesota in '08.

[nwFL Griz]

According to the Hofstra message board, rumors are flying at the Buffalo board that Buffalo is going to drop Colgate and pick up Hofstra.

The Colgate website doesn't have Buffalo on the future schedules anymore, so this looks promising.

[ASU88]

We've got big FBS games in '09, '10 and '11. I think it's Georgia, then Florida and then Va Tech in that order, but not 100% sure.

[Seven Would Be Nice]

Pretty sure we got:

UGA August 30th, 2008
Navy October 24, 2009

Dates could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure both are confirmed games at this point.

[YaleFootballFan]

Yale's future FBS Games:

2010 at Army (West Point, NY)
2012 at Army (West Point, NY)
2014 vs. Army (Yale Bowl)

[LehighFan11]

Yale's future FBS Games:

2010 at Army (West Point, NY)
2012 at Army (West Point, NY)
2014 vs. Army (Yale Bowl)

That is good to see Yale taking on some FBS teams. Too bad they didn't get to play Army this year, you guys might of won.

[pantherclaw]

UNI has
Iowa in 2008
ISU in 2009
beyond????

[RAMS83]

Fordham has no FBS games scheduled but our alumni would like them to in '08 or '09. 16 starters return next year including solid 6'5 220 QB John Skelton (who will be a junior in '08). Earlier in the thread was mentioned Rutgers is looking for a FCS opponent. I nominate Fordham. Yes we'd get pushed around and be 28 point underdogs. However, we were PL Champs, figure to be better next year and are within an hour drive. It would be tremendous exposure for Fordham in the NYC tri-state area and we would get prob. get paid 250k.. lets make it happen.. If thats not feasible-- I hope we could get Army, UConn, Duke, type..

[poly51]

Cal Poly has San Diego State in 2008 and San Jose State in 2009.

[appfan2008]

UNI has
Iowa in 2008
ISU in 2009
beyond????

yall ought to go find someone out of state as well...

but then again if you beat them in back to back years wouldnt that make you king of the state?

[bench]

I'd love to see App and Wake Forest resume hostilities, but that's never going to happen. Shame, too, because that was always a great rivalry game. Oddly enough, they'll play other FCS schools, but they won't play us. Wonder why?

The lingering smell in Winston Salem after the game?

[BearsCountry]

You sure about the 09 game against the Clones bc they have NDSU scheduled for that year.

[appybybirth]

ASU has Georgia in 2009, Florida in 2010 and Virginia Tech in 2011. No set game yet for 2008.

[appfan2008]

I think we have another trip to LSU also either next year or later bc they back out of this year...

[appybybirth]

Tennessee always seemed like a great game for ASU, since no NC schools will play them. Maybe one day.

[bench]

The lingering smell in Winston Salem after the game?
The smell you're referring to emanates from Polo Dorm, but it's their coeds rather than their equestrians. I hear it's gotten better since Coach K's daughter graduated.

My sister-in-law graduated from Wake. I've got plenty of material about Old Gold in the archives that I'd love to drag out again.

[stevdock]

UNI has
Iowa in 2008
ISU in 2009

ISU is going to play 2 FCS games that year?? NDSU is playing Iowa State for sure in 2009.

[crunifan]

UNI has...

2008-rumored to be either LSU, Miami, or Florida State
2009-Iowa
2010-Iowa State

[appmountaineer]

ASU talking to North Carolina about playing them in 2008. I would love to beat the tar heels

[ysubigred]

what are you saying about my wife??? it is kind of funny that my kids can sing hi hi yikas, but can't recite "dear old wake forrest". what can i say, i try to raise em' right...

and to touch on coach k's little angel, they may have been moving furniture upstairs that night, i don't know. i just thought 2 in the morning was an odd time to move the bunk beds to the other side of the room.xrolleyesx

I love your missus to death, but she did live with a few girls with rather long faces, if you *whinny* know what I mean.

[skinny_uncle]

SIU

2008-Northwestern
2009-Marshall
2010-Illinois
2011-Mississippi

[pantherclaw]

Nix ISU in 2009.
And move Iowa to 2010
I thought we were playing Iowa next year oh well guess not. My apologies.

[thmst30]

No FBS game in 08? That sucks, everyone would be watching out for us, in two years they won't care much.

[nwFL Griz]

I think we have another trip to LSU also either next year or later bc they back out of this year...

Nope, no LSU for 08....their schedule is complete, and App St isn't on it.


UNI has...

2008-rumored to be either LSU, Miami, or Florida State
2009-Iowa
2010-Iowa State

Probably not Miami, unless they cancel Charleston Southern (who they picked up to replace North Texas).

Not LSU, like above, schedule complete with no UNI.

Probably not Florida St either since they already have W. Carolina on Aug 30, and I doubt they would schedule 2 FCS teams in one year.

[appfan2008]

Nope, no LSU for 08....their schedule is complete, and App St isn't on it.

well i know we are going back down there sometime

[Tribe4SF]

W&M

2008- NC State
2009- UVA
2010- UNC
2011- UVA
2012- Maryland

[appstate38]

ASU talking to North Carolina about playing them in 2008. I would love to beat the tar heels

Its about time.... Hope it will happen. They play other FCS schools, why not us. It would definitely be a sell out. Since nobody else wants to watch them play.

[CID1990]

Due to the fact that The Citadel will have played a team from every BCS conference after 2010 when we play Arizona, and also due to the fact that now most other FCS teams are taking up the FBS schedules, Les Robinson has announced that starting in 2011, The Citadel will begin an ambitious NFL schedule, starting with the Carolina Panthers. He is trying to get a guarantee from the Dallas Cowboys for 2012.

I think a couple of FCS teams could give Miami a run for their money this year...

That's funny. Wish we could do better than the last place Big Ten and Big 12 teams, but hopefully we will get there soon.

[leatherneck177]

WIU has:

Arkansas in 2008
Northern Illinois in 2009
Purdue in 2010

And possibly Kansas State in 2011?

[th0m]

Yale's future FBS Games:

2010 at Army (West Point, NY)
2012 at Army (West Point, NY)
2014 vs. Army (Yale Bowl)

A home game vs Army?? Nice!

[GaSouthern]

GSU is playing Navy for holloween(sp?) 2009

[GaSouthern]

ASU has Georgia in 2009, Florida in 2010 and Virginia Tech in 2011. No set game yet for 2008.

Edwards will be a senior, PLEASE BEAT UGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(I know we will get crushed by the dawgs next year :( )

[Uncle Buck]

I love your missus to death, but she did live with a few girls with rather long faces, if you *whinny* know what I mean.

Reminds me of the old joke:

Horse walks into a bar, bartender says, "Hey, why the long face!" :D

It gets me every time.

[LehighFan11]

Edwards will be a senior, PLEASE BEAT UGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yea i wish App St was playing Florida in 09. Tebow v. Edwards matchup. Wow.

Probably not Florida St either since they already have W. Carolina on Aug 30, and I doubt they would schedule 2 FCS teams in one year.

My apologies for giving incorrect information. Apparently LSU has an open date on Sep 13, so maybe there is a chance for either LSU-App St or UNI-LSU.

[YaleFootballFan]

A home game vs Army?? Nice!

Since the Harvard game that year is in Cambridge, Yale wanted a marque game at home to celebrate the 100th anniversary of The Yale Bowl.

The last time Yale hosted an FBS school was in '88 when Army came to the Bowl. Army won 33-17 on a cold rainy afternoon before 34,000.

[MarkCCU]

Coastal has Georgia, Clemson and Penn State in the coming years. I think there is maybe one more team, I can't remember.

[APPSTER]

Carolina Panthers?....I thought you said it was an ambitious NFL schedule.....Les ain't stupid.......

[EIUsuperfan]

September 6, 2008 - at Illinois
October 10, 2009 - at Penn State

[brownbear]

Brown's future FBS opponents:

[Ronin]

UNI has
Iowa in 2008
ISU in 2009
beyond????

Hmmm... I read it was Iowa in 2009 and the ISU contract had expired.

[Col Hogan]

UMass has Texas Tech in 2008...

[yorkcountyUNHfan]

UNH goes to Army in 2008

[See Red!]

Jerry has susposedly scheduled University of Washington for 2008, Oregon State 2009 and Arizona State in 2010. There is also talk that he is talking to schools in the SEC for additional OOC games.

Washington has never played an FCS team in their history so that would be an historic matchup if the Man in Black was really able to get it inked, but I have my suspicions until there is ink on paper with that one. Would be interesting to see the Huskies play an FCS team though.

Washington is not playing Portland St in 2008, their (UW) schedule is complete....still no FCS teams.


Hmmm... I read it was Iowa in 2009 and the ISU contract had expired.

The Iowa game is in 09.

Nice Home game against Army!

[YaleFootballFan]

Brown's future FBS opponents:

True, Brown doesn't have any FBS opponents scheduled, but the Bears were the last Ivy team to play a team from the Big Ten in football (1987 at Penn State).

And if I remember correctly, Cornell was the last to play a Pac 10 school, which was at Stanford in 1990.

[ucdtim17]

Washington is not playing Portland St in 2008, their (UW) schedule is complete....still no FCS teams.


Yeah, UW is playing BYU, ND, and Oklahoma OOC. The SEC/tOSU patsy scheduling hasn't caught on in the northwest yet

[LehighFan11]

September 6, 2008 - at Illinois
October 10, 2009 - at Penn State

O boy cover your eyes in 08. Juice Williams will be a Sr and Benn will be a Jr.

[bcrawf]

Hmmm... I read it was Iowa in 2009 and the ISU contract had expired.

You are correct...

2008- ??- Still looking. Florida State rumored.
2009- Iowa
2010- Iowa State (new contract, more money)
2011- Iowa State
2012- Still Looking
2013- Iowa State
2014- Iowa State

[brownbear]

And if I remember correctly, Cornell was the last to play a Pac 10 school, which was at Stanford in 1990.

Stanford beat Cornell 56-6, and that was the last time an Ivy League school played a BCS team. I think Yale's game against Army in 1996 was the last time an Ivy League team played a I-A school.

[AlphaSigMD]

ASU talking to North Carolina about playing them in 2008. I would love to beat the tar heels

It Will NEVER Happen. There are too many people in chapel hill with too much money, and too big an ego to ever let the riffraff from ASU get a game with their almighty tarheels.

Can we get some ASU vs. UNC ESPN stories please! I guarentee we will come thru better than Delaware State! They haven't played us since we had our Undefeated, Unscored-On season.

The rumor is that McNeese will go to Chapel Hill in 2008. Hasn't been confirmed, but I keep hearing it. The rumor has sprouted legs.
