UNI does not play at Nicholls State

[R3TRO]

Nice job, I couldn't get the comments sections to work though. Not trying to pick on you, just debugging a little for you.

[TexasTerror]

Nicholls State does not play at Air Force. Northern Colorado does.

http://goairforcefalcons.cstv.com/auto_pdf/p_hotos/s_chools/afa/sports/m-footbl/auto_pdf/FutureSchedules

La Tech is confirmed for Colonels. Still awaiting confirmation on Duquesne game. And yep, UNI is not on their schedule.

[UNHWildCats]

ya someone else mentioned that earlier... I changed it to allow annonomous comments but I guess it still didnt work let me figure it out.

[UNHWildCats]

ok coul;dnt figure it out, so I added new commenting software to it... should be set to go.

No, that game at Air Force was cancelled/postponed. We've got Kansas this year.

[TexasTerror]

So, maybe Air Force does take on Nicholls. Any word in the area about filling that spot with Nicholls?

[dgreco]

bryant is listed as both an indy and nec. Also, no South Alabama?

[UNHWildCats]

bryant is listed as both an indy and nec. Also, no South Alabama?
Oops. I had them listed one way originally and then found out they were the other...

Of course I forget which is the case... Do they officially join the NEC in 2009 or still officially Ind?

Can you be a bit more specific on South Alabama?

[mainejeff]

Great job Travis! Thanks.

I'm pretty sure that Bryant isn't a member of the NEC until 2012 when they're transition to DI is final.

[introvertedGSUfan]

Why has Georgia Southern not picked their last OOC game yet? Are they holding out for some FBS team?

South Alabama is playing an exhibition schedule next year. JV teams and military academies (Hargrave Military Academy). They should not be listed until 2010.

[TTUEagles]

Great work! Thank You.

Tennessee Tech @ Gardner-Webb, Sept. 26...

[CrazyCat]

UNH. Do you have a link or any kind of confirmation on the Montana State vs. Dixie State game on 9/12? Thanks

[UNHWildCats]

Saw the game mentioned on the Montana State forum, a link afterwards to the conference schedules for Dixie States conference showed the 12th ast the only possible date... appears Montana State is replacing Western Washington on the schedule. I have no confirmation on the game. Only games highlighted in orange are confirmed and of course even those are subject to change.

[slostang]

Nice job Travis. Thanks for the hard work.

On Cal Poly's schedule they will host the University of South Dakota. Not sure of the date.

They are looking for one more home game to complete their schedule.

[UNHWildCats]

Unless they play it real early (Sep 12) Its likely the game will be on Nov 14

[UNHWildCats]

actually they could play Oct 24th too

[Eaglegus2]

Why has Georgia Southern not picked their last OOC game yet? Are they holding out for some FBS team?

Rumored that there will be an announcement this week from the Athletic Department that Georgia Southern will be playing an ACC team this year. Lots of speculation, but no one has a definite answer at this time.

[PantherRob82]

Georgia Tech?

[Eaglegus2]

Georgia Tech?

Only if Jacksonville State has backed out.

A lot of us have tried to do a process of elimination on which team it may be.

Our finalists are:

Boston College
Clemson
Duke
North Carolina
NC State
Virginia

We know that some of these teams have already scheduled FCS teams. Either someone has changed their mind about playing the game or one of the teams will play 2 FCS teams this year. We will find out this week.


Anyone else wish to take a guess at who it may be?

Well if you are taking into consideration that someone might back out of a game, then the whole ACC is in play. Let's assume no one backs out:

BC - only if they want to play 2 FCS (already have Northeastern)
Clemson - no, OOC full
FSU - no, OOC full
Maryland - no, OOC full
NC St - only if they want to play 2 FCS
Wake - no, OOC full
Duke - only if they want to play 2 FCS
GaTech - no, OOC full
Miami - no, OOC full
UNC - only if they want to play 2 FCS
UVa - only if they want to play 2 FCS
VaTech - no, OOC full

So if you ask me, there's no way of telling right now. It looks like someone may have lost a game somewhere. As of now VaTech is the only ACC school that does not have an FCS scheduled.

Well apparently Florida State is looking to buyout Maine for $900,000 to play that weekend in an ESPN game against Miami, so Florida State may have an opening, not sure when they were originally suppsoed to play Miami.

[Syntax Error]

Well apparently Florida State is looking to buyout Maine for $900,000 ...Wait, that is the definition of NOBRAINER for Maine.

[dgreco]

Bryant is Indy this year

[Eaglegus2]

Wait, that is the definition of NOBRAINER for Maine.

Take the damn money Maine!!!!!!!!!

Then get some NAIA or DIII to come play you.xlolx xnodx :D

[nwFL Griz]

Well apparently Florida State is looking to buyout Maine for $900,000 to play that weekend in an ESPN game against Miami, so Florida State may have an opening, not sure when they were originally suppsoed to play Miami.

The ACC does their schedule year-by-year, but usually this game is played in the first or second week in October.

[UNHWildCats]

So with Georgia Southern having an opening on Oct 10 there certainly could be a fit here.

[813Jag]

Well apparently Florida State is looking to buyout Maine for $900,000 to play that weekend in an ESPN game against Miami, so Florida State may have an opening, not sure when they were originally suppsoed to play Miami.
I thought Maine was looking to get out of the game to play Michigan. I hope the FSU-Miami game stays where it is. Let somebody else play on Labor Day.

We are in agreement here....however, with ESPN pulling the purse strings, Miami moving the FAMU game to Oct 10, and now this talk of Maine, I get the feeling this is a done deal. Which sucks for everyone involved...:(

I think this seals the deal:

Hurricanes OOC 2009 (http://hurricanesports.cstv.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/012209aab.html)

Expect an announcement soon indicating that FSU has bought out Maine.

Not a done deal at all. FSU is not exactly delighted with the prospect. The ACC is the force driving this, so basically FSU told the ACC:

1. You are responsible for finding us another out of conference game to replace Maine.

2. You are responsible for making sure we don't have to buy Maine out, be it you paying Maine off, or finding Maine a replacement game they are happy with.

If the ACC/ESPN can accomplish those things, great. If not, Maine will be going to Tallahassee.

Maybe not officially done, but as close to done as possible. The ACC will do whatever ESPN wants. Unfortunately, ESPN wants Miami-FSU on Labor Day night....so I'm sure that's what they'll get.

[UNHWildCats]

The SWAC schedule is starting to come together and the MEAC schedule as well. The NEC and Pioneer are the only ones without significant schedule data available.

[ccd494]

Maine-FSU is off: http://bangornews.com/detail/99193.html

Maine will still get $450,000.

Maine is also in negotiations to play Syracuse, and is looking for another FCS game.

Sounds like it could be a lucrative year for the Bears.

What? Samuel Houston had a conflicting tentative schedule last season?

[3rd Coast Tiger]

Anyway, the Texas Southern vs Texas State game may be moved to September 19th.

[nwFL Griz]

Anyway, the Texas Southern vs Texas State game may be moved to September 19th.

When I noticed this conflict a couple days ago, this was my first thought, too. Sep 19 open for both teams....easy enough. (Provided it doesn't screw Tex South on getting an 11th game).

[PSUVikings]

That is going to be the worst month of September in PSU history.

[TexasTerror]

What? Samuel Houston had a conflicting tentative schedule last season?

Nope - Texas Southern and Texas State - San Marcos did.

I guess this is not as big as double-booking or not scheduling officials.

[3rd Coast Tiger]

I guess this is not as big as double-booking or not scheduling officials.

Or an all out season ticket boycott by alumni.

just speculating, but the options are narrowing out I was wondering if you heard anything Seawolf, maybe Bryant vs. Stony Brook is back this year?

[danefan]

dgreco you may be happy to know that I've heard the NEC has "forced" Albany to schedule Bryant.

Hasn't been confirmed though.

happy idk, it might be another beat down like we face from UMass last year. I was hoping we added SHU instead of UAlbany this year, because I think we have a decent shot at that game.

[danefan]

We'll see about that. The Danes have to reload on the offensive line this year. I expect it to happen, but we won't really know the prospects until after spring ball.

[hebmskebm]

If Bryant-Albany is a go, I'd think Bryant-SHU would be too. Are Bryant, Wagner, or SHU playing Northeast-10 teams this year? Are any NEC teams playing Marist?

[UNHWildCats]

i tried posting on the albany forum but it wont let me, is there a waiting period after registering before you can post?

I was trying to comment on Jeff's comment about UNH and Maine doing home and homes with Albany and Stony Brook.

[813Jag]

Southern/Alabama St game is November 14 (November 7 and 21 are open dates)
You can add Jackson St/Alcorn November 21

[dgreco]

If Bryant-Albany is a go, I'd think Bryant-SHU would be too. Are Bryant, Wagner, or SHU playing Northeast-10 teams this year? Are any NEC teams playing Marist?

I think if Bryant took a DII game it might be New Haven, I just have that feeling.

I hope they pick up Albany and SHU. If they keep Marist, the UMass game is replaced by Hofstra and that leaves an opening for the old Iona game. I hope they either get UMass again or Stony Brook. It will be a tough year next year though if they have SBU, UMass, UAlbany, Hofstra, CCSU, Monmouth - plus a few long trips to the other NEC schools.

AFAIK, no NEC teams are playing NE-10 teams this year. Its a possiblity that Wagner or SHU may have one D-II team on their schedule this year, but its unlikely.

I do imagine Marist will be on a NEC schedule or two - the most likely opponents being Wagner and/or SHU.

The NEC non-conference schedule is shaping up great. So far, every NEC team (except Wagner) has at least 1 fully scholly/equiv team on their scehdule. Here's what we have so far:

Albany - at Georgia Southern (SoCon), vs. UMass (CAA), TBA
CCSU - at Lehigh (PL), at William & Mary (CAA), at Columbia (Ivy)
Duquesne - vs Bucknell (PL), at Nichols State (SLC), TBA
Monmouth - at Colgate (PL), at Coastcal Carolina (Big South), at Old Dominion (Indy)
Robert Morris - at VMI (Big South), at Bucknell (PL), TBA
Sacred Heart - at Holy Cross (PL), TBA, TBA
St. Francis - at New Hampshire (CAA), at Northern Iowa (MVC), TBA
Wagner - ???

*Each NEC team has 4 non-conference games available, however they will all likely play Bryant (Indy) as they transition, leaving just 3 games to schedule)

Almost all are road games for the NEC, but its hard to argue that we haven't stepped up the schedule conference wide.

[danefan]

It is shaping up well, with almost all scheduling at least two teams from AQ conferences.

Now, I'll throw my NEC rant out there on scheduling:

Why in the world would the NEC force a team like Albany to play Bryant. This is not a knock against Bryant at all. Right now the NEC should be encouraging its members to schedule appropriately for the 2009 conditional AQ. Bryant as an OOC for Albany makes absolutely no sense. If Albany wins, even if its by 50, it doesn't help them in the national rankings. If Albany loses, they could win every other game on the schedule and still not make the playoffs.

The NEC should have given Albany the blessing to play two CAA teams, a Socon and a PL team.

Sorry....another reason I hate Albany being in the NEC. xmadx

I was just going to say that as long as UNH has a yearly home and home with Dartmouth they wont schedule road games against non elite teams.

ya same one as here. Thanks

[danefan]

True. It doesn't make sense for UNH to give up one of its 3 OOC games to a road game against Albany or SBU.

Sorry....another reason I hate Albany being in the NEC. xmadx

I understand the issue from UA's perspective, but it was done to HELP Bryant (a soon-to-be FULL member) transition to the NEC.

Listen, I don't think a win vs. Bryant hurts Albany, but a loss would. That just the hand you've been delt. You can still win 2 of the 3 other non-conf games to try for "earned access." But don't get too upset because IMO, you weren't getting the ranking required anyway.

Next season is it!!! Put a positive spin on it and think UA is retooling to make a run at the AQ next year.

Again, I understand your perspective, but seeing the NEC is providing you a football home and a shot at the playoffs, I think some fans are much more upset than your athletic department. I've heard it straight from NEC sources, despite what some fans may hope for, the Albany administration is VERY HAPPY with the current deal with the NEC. Of course they would love to join, UNH, Maine, et al but they know they have it good right now.

[UNHWildCats]

True. It doesn't make sense for UNH to give up one of its 3 OOC games to a road game against Albany or SBU.
its a likely possibility if they do indeed end the Dartmouth series, they should do home and homes with Albany and others and relegate Dartmouth to occasional games in Durham only. :p

Listen, I don't think a win vs. Bryant hurts Albany, but a loss would. That just the hand you've been delt. You can still win 2 of the 3 other non-conf games to try for "earned access." But don't get too upset because IMO, you weren't getting the ranking required anyway.

Next season is it!!! Put a positive spin on it and think UA is retooling to make a run at the AQ next year.

Again, I understand your perspective, but seeing the NEC is providing you a football home and a shot at the playoffs, I think some fans are much more upset than your athletic department. I've heard it straight from NEC sources, despite what some fans may hope for, the Albany administration is VERY HAPPY with the current deal with the NEC. Of course they would love to join, UNH, Maine, et al but they know they have it good right now.

I know it helps Bryant, but let the rest of the league who votes against upping the scholarships help Bryant out. xmadx

Sorry, while NEC sources may say that now, I and others have heard differently. And I will say one thing - The admins and coaching staff at UA may not be on the same page with this issue, which may be the source of confusion. We won't know for sure until 2010 when Albany's contract with the NEC is up. At that point, I would imagine that Albany will try and force the NEC's hand in the scholarships limit area. If there is no budge, I would imagine a short-term, even year by year contract with the NEC.

But you are right. As of now - Albany has nowhere to go - the only other option is the Big South, and that's not great for Northeastern schools.

And 2010 will be a rough year for Albany. Losing McCarty and Esposito along with a bunch on the defense. After next year, I would expect a 2010 lull and a 2012-2014 ramp up like we've seen these last few years. By that point I expect to see full scholarship football though, and most likely not in the NEC. That's just an opinion.

[Bulldog Fan]

What I am hearing is Bryant U. will play Southern Ct State again this year but will pick up Fordham to replace Marist.

That could be it, you certainly have more inside UA info than me. But I've heard from more than one source (one from the AE), that UA admins were pleased with the current arraignment with the NEC. Of course, part of that that is probably based on the fact that the other options for UA football are a lot less attractive or very expensive.

I do agree that we will see some changes in conference affiliations/schollys for UA sometime in the future. I predict UA resigns a 3-year deal in beginning in 2011, but they will have a non-publicized clause that will allow them to leave without a big fee. That is just the nature of your affilate status, and I think both side are OK with it.

Not bad!

Southern Conn. is a Top-25 D-II team. That's not a bad game, especially for a transiting Bryant squad.

Fordham will be a challange for Bryant, but I like that schedule.

Once the NEC AQ kicks in, I expect the negotiations to stalemate with UA and the NEC for one big reason - the NEC no longer really needs Albany. As much as no one will likely ever admit it, the NEC needed Albany (and CCSU) and Bob Ford and its overly ridiculous schedule to give it some credibility in the playoff expansion push. Now that the AQ is locked up, what incentive does the NEC have in allowing more scholarships?

The small private schools in the NEC are better off letting Albany walk. Why would Wagner, SHU, Robert Morris and St. Francis want to compete with a huge public school who is only an affiliate? They will increase their chances of getting the AQ without Albany in the picture. If they get CCSU out of the way too, they are set. Fighting it out with themselves for an AQ to the playoffs, which, with Albany and CCSU in the league, they have very little chance of winning. That's especially true if Albany gets the stadium built. The recruiting advantage will be huge.

I started shading the team header to team colors... before anyone complains about colors not being exact, google documents only offers limited color choice...

I am viewing each teams website and selecting two colors from the teams color scheme a background and a font.

Hope it makes the schedule pages a bit nicer looking...

So far I did Big Sky, Big South and CAA

I hate the idea of SCSU game, it looks good for transition team, but its a "rivalry" and its a tough game, we could easily lose it and if we are taking a DII game we need a win. If we have to travel to SCSU I really do not like it all that much.

Fordham will be a tough game, but it will be another nice AQ team for us.

I run into the same problem. I give game info, andinevitably someone asks where I got it. Of course, I have incomplete notes...so i don't have an answer.

[UNHWildCats]

ok, so because a lot of dates are being released for future seasons I decided in a few weeks I will start working on putting the next few years together and I decided its best to do it so it can all be viewed together,.. so thus a new layout is needed lol...

I think I have a simple layout that can meet the needs without looking too dull.

I figure I can transfer all the data over this weekend and use the link I already handed out still as the main link....

heres an incomplete Big Sky page to give a general idea.

I will keep updating the current model over the weekend and take the new model live Monday and go from there... I wont begin adding data for future seasons until the first week of March.

http://travisliles.com/2009/bigsky.html

I'll add a menu bar for all the conference above the color chart and there will be a banner above that.

Just about finished... Once Im done I already got a quick conference menu dont I just gotta link each page to those and then place the menu on each page and the main page.

Tomorrow at sometime I will upload a new final menu.

Again at the beggining of March I will start working on pages for 2010, 2011 and 2012... if I find any data beyond those years I will expand it.

As I mentioned before, I will set it so the main link is the same as before, however I cant do the same for each conference because using the blog it stamped in the date and month of the post into the link. So I will leave the blog and just erase everything and insert a link on each conf page directly to the new page because I know individual links have been posted on numerous forums.

[UNHWildCats]

ok Im now waiting for my websites DNS to turn off its connection to blogger, once it does schedules.travisliles.com will work again to the new site...

Meantime you can directly go to the main page here http://travisliles.com/schedules Ignore the page headers that signify the conference, I gotta change those to each individual conference, should have that done in 20 mins or so.

But other than that its active.

like the updates.

Is it March or so when everything falls into place?
I prefer to wait and build my schedule all at once.

so are they not looking for the playoffs?

2 FBS games and Pikeville?

[TTUEagles]

Not to be pessimistic, but I don't think the playoffs are in TTU's future in '09. I hope I'm wrong. But, TTU was 3-9 last year and really only "in" 1 of those 9 losses. They had a roster of 75% fresh and Sophs' signing 36 last year. I think they'll be significantly better, but (maybe) a year or two away from seriously considering the playoffs...They are about to build a new weightroom facility and need some more facility upgrades. The coach, Watson Brown, is dead set on getting lots more $$ into the program and this is apparently what he feels he has to do (playing 2 BCS schools). He played two FBS schools last year, though, and said he wouldn't do it again...?

the UD/DSU game is good for FCS - but it actually hurts the NEC. Had UD not scheduled DSU, the DSU-Wagner game would have been on and Albany could have played UD on the 19th.

Now Wagner will likely schedule a DII or DIII (god forbid) and Albany's prospects for AQ conference opponents are limited to North Dakota State, Sac State, Indiana State and Morgan State.

Not exactly natural OOC partners for Albany to get involved in a home-and-home with.

The NEC is screwing itself with the scholarship limit right now. A lot of teams are taking two FBS games this year. The NEC teams could have been in the running for those second FBS games. Now, everyone is taking them and there isn't many good teams left for the NEC to play.

I've lost a lot of respect for the UD and DSU athletic departments and the fans who cried like babies on this board.

I can't wait to hear the excuses from everyone. xreadx

[nwFL Griz]

Now Wagner will likely schedule a DII or DIII (god forbid) and Albany's prospects for AQ conference opponents are limited to North Dakota State, Sac State, Indiana State and Morgan State.

Not exactly natural OOC partners for Albany to get involved in a home-and-home with.


Sac St is full up now. Looks like they are playing Cal Poly.


Let's not let UD-DSU off the hook, just yet!!!!!!

Delaware fans got their pantys in a bunch because they had to scamble for a last minute opponent, now they (along with DSU) did they same thing to Wagner. xnonox

Yeah, after all the boo-hooing that CAA posters did about Furman, I would expect a similar response regarding UD-DSU, because it would be hypocritcal of them to remain silent.

I agree if......and its a big if......Wagner had a signed contract with DSU. We don't know if that's true or not. The Furman/UD game was a contract entered into two years ago.

We don't know if DSU and Wagner had an agreement in place yet and if they didn't you can't blame them at all.

However, if they did (and we'll likely never know) then its just as bad.

It all traces back to being "Furmaned". xlolx

And I haven't seen anywhere that DSU has broken a contract with Wagner - no one ever confirmed that DSU and Wagner were playing. Heck, UD wanted DSU for 2010 as well to fill a hole that was created when the CAA told UD they couldn't play Navy late in the year and Navy couldn't reschedule (had to schedule Duquense instead) and DSU couldn't accomodate a game then because it was already booked. Seems odd that DSU would not bend to break a contract in 2010 but seemingly, according to you, dropped Wagner at the drop of a hat. xreadx

Delaware State gave up a 2009 home game with Wagner to visit Delaware instead.

"Gave up" implies that there was more than just "an offer" from Wagner to visit Dover. I think that DSU bought Wagner out of their "deal," weather it was a contract or other agreement between schools. We may get more info in the coming weeks from Wagner, or we could ask DSU or the reporter to provide further explanation.

i sense some pissed off Dane fans coming along. I should go to their forum, might be the most entertaining place to be today.

[danefan]

Ridiculous.

How do we go from being told we'd have 6 home games to now fighting to get a home game in the month of September.

Unless there's a ton of money invovled or somehow this game needed to be changed for some positive reason (I can't think of one), this is complete hor$h1t

They freaking auctioned off pre-game breakfast, lockerroom and sideline access already. Not that it got that much, but what could possibly make Albany agree to this?

it was either a sweet deal, maybe two home games for Albany in the future? Or maybe UMass blackmailed them? Play in Amherst or find a new opponent?

We need home games now. When our stadium gets built we be able to attract better competition to Albany. Right now we needed home games against big name FCS opponents to build a fanbase. Its not everyday you get a CAA team to commit to come to Albany and play at our high school setup - in fact, Hofstra is the only one so far. UMass committed and our AD should have held them to it.

The decisions being made lately appear on their face to be so shortsighted its amazing to me.

Eh, there's a reason, though, why the term is "Furmaned" and not "Missouried" - well, two reasons - one is that "Missouried" is just a silly looking word, and two, because the blame lies with the team that bailed on a contract or agreement, not the one that they bailed to play. UD didn't break any contracts or agreements. xthumbsupx

HAHAA!!!!
Six degrees of separation from Missouri. Who did Missouri drop? I'm sure someone else created their opening.

[nwFL Griz]

Furman replaces SMU, Missouri and SMU had a home-and-home deal set for 2009 (Columbia) and 2010 (Dallas) but both schools agreed to drop it to help Missouri keep its game with Kansas in Kansas City and give the Tigers six home games in 2010.

So its really Kansas and the entire city of Kansas City's fault - right! xsmiley_wix

I believe the game at UMass is the away part of a home and away with StonyBrook. We will have road game in 2010 at Northeastern and Umass and Hofstra at home.

As I understand it, Wagner had an agreement to play at Delaware St. on Thurs. September 17th. Wagner now needs to fill two open spots and has 9/12, 9/19 and 10/17 as open dates. At this point, the FCS options are very limited ; 9/12 North Dakota, NDSU, Portland St. Howard, Savanah St., Davidson for 9/19 Dayton, Davidson may have openings and for 10/17 Morgan St. and Austin Peay (some of those openings may already be booked). We already have Stonehill on the schedule/ one DII is more than enough. I would really like to see us step it up and get either North Dakota, NDSU or Portland St. on the slate. One of the Pioneer teams (Dayton or Davidson) would be a good 11th opponent.

Mizzoued - the act of being persuaded from a pre-existing contractual arrangement with the promise of a larger crowd and bigger payday even though such act almost certainly guarantees an embarrassing loss.

Some more schedule tom-foolery....the MAC and Northwestern released it's schedule today, some highlights that affect FCS teams:

Northwestern showing Towson @ Northwestern on 9/5. (Add that to the Coastal Carolina-NC A&T-Towson three-way cluster)

Akron hosting Morgan St on 9/12 which further jumbles the MEAC schedule.

The MEAC schedule is all messed up with Delaware St, NC A&T, Norfolk St, Howard....oh my head hurts, maybe someone has a sanity check for me?

It's simple:

DSU vs FAMU can move to Oct 3rd.
DSU vs Morgan on Sept 5th.

MEAC done.

Heard a rumor around the athletics department this weekend that TCU was looking to move their game against Texas State from September 19th up to the 5th.

All these games are winnable for Weber State, but playing Montana, Colorado State, and Wyoming on the road will be very difficult. The Big Sky will be particularly strong next year.

Not too bad of a schedule for San Diego. The best they've had in recent memory. Two full scholly teams is a good step for them (even though they were both pretty bad last year combining for 5-22). At least there appears to be an effort, unlike some of the other PFL teams.

[nwFL Griz]

Travis, fyi - Montana-Western has removed Idaho St from their 2009 schedule. Montana Tech does not show Idaho St on their 2009 schedule, either.

So looks like ISU is still looking for a game.

Confirmed on school websites:

September 12th
Central State @ Southern
Langston (not CSU) @ UAPB


Also, Rutgers still wrangling a 12th game for Oct 10th.
Only Indiana State has that date open & ten scheduled.
Plan B would have Cincy-Rutgers move to Oct 10th and
fill Sept 5th. Maine and Austin Peay only possibilities then.
What do you guys think will happen?

Rutgers also has an open date on Oct 3rd. I happen to think Rutgers will be playing Texas Southern on Oct 3rd for their 12th game.

Those plans are in jeopardy now that "cat is out the bag" with the premature release of the game.

The Rutgers AD was discussing a possible second FCS game with us with influential people with the program first but now it may not be happening.

Way to go (insert the name of the person who knows who they are). xsmhx

what is your source for the dates for the 2011 and 2012 games: VMI v. The Citadel? 90% of the time they play the 3rd Saturday in november.

Well, it has also been discussed by several posters on the Rutgers board, so hopefully the premature release doesn't hurt y'alls chances of going to Piscataway.

you need to look at the color code at the top of the pages... The citadel/VMI games have no date... they are just randomely placed on the page to signify that the game exists.

nope

[mainejeff]

Does Maine have an 11th game yet? xconfusedx (Just asking, not trying to stir up trouble.) xpeacex

No and unless it is a D-2......looks like we won't. Not playing an 11th game is probably going to save Maine about $50,000. With all of the budget cutting going on, I won't be surprised to see the 10 game schedule. It won't hurt so much for the playoffs since a D-2 win would do nothing to help Maine gain a bid........but not playing a home game until Oct.3rd is INEXCUSABLE xmadxxmadxxmadx......and just another reason that Maine fans are hoping that Blake James gets the job in Florida!!!

[Libertine]

Forgive my ignorance but who is Blake James and what would his going to Florida accomplish?

Based on what I've read from you and other Maine fans, games before the weather starts to slip in late October are the key to your attendance. And the opponent doesn't seem to matter as much as being in that first half of the season. Why not pay $50-75K to a Bryant, Sacred Heart, CCSU, Wagner, Marist, etc. and have a game on Oct. 3rd? (Not saying they're all available today, but they would have been a few months ago.) I'm just thinking if you want Maine football to thrive that come hell or high water that you have to be sure to have 3-4 home games before late October.

I think your closest D-II is either Merrimack or St. Anselm's. Probably too late for that game to happen as well, but at least Merrimack would have been known to your fans since they are Hockey East mates. I guess as much as I know that D-II games stink, any football game and an opportunity to come to campus and tailgate is better than no game. Although in my case if I were a Black Bear, I'd just save the money from that weekend and use it to attend the game at Syracuse. :p But the bulk of your fans travel shorter distances to campus than I do. Shoot, any FBS schools still needing a 12th game? Why not grab another pay day since Syracuse isn't like playing one of the true big boys?

I don't blame you for being pissed at your AD. During the past few seasons you've had great pay days from FBS schools. And this year you ended up with a bonus payment via the Florida State deal. Seems like you could have bought a decent game for Oct. 3rd. According to Travis' schedules, Delaware State still needs an 11th game and is open on 10/3. Of course, they're trying to juggle things with the MEAC schedule after their late changes putting Michigan and Delaware on the schedule. Yes, 7-3 with all D-I wins makes you playoff eligible but as you saw last year having that 8th D-I victory can make you much more likely to get a bid.

I was really worried that UNH was going to be in the same position when we didn't have a FBS game and needed an 11th game. But we got Ball State then quickly filled the schedule with St. Francis. Not exactly a regional foe or anything, but I've got to give our AD kudos for getting the schedule completed and not ending up in your dilemma.

[UNH_Alum_In_CT]

Forgive my ignorance but who is Blake James and what would his going to Florida accomplish?

He's Maine's AD and going to Florida Gulf Coast (IIRC) would give MJ a new AD at his school.

Thanks. Oddly enough, I read this article just this morning.

I can't count how many things in that column are wrong, but it's the first I've heard about Jacksonville moving to 'D-I' (by which he means FBS).

TSU adds Big East's Rutgers to football schedule
By JOSEPH DUARTE Copyright 2009 Houston Chronicle
April 16, 2009, 1:17PM

Texas Southern and Rutgers will play this season, giving the Tigers their first meeting against a team from a major college football conference in the program's 64-year history.

The game will be played Oct. 3 in Piscataway, N.J.

"Playing a Big East team takes our program to another level," TSU coach Johnnie Cole said Thursday at his second annual celebrity golf tournament at Wildcat Golf Club. "It lets young people know you can come to Texas Southern and we're going to play big-time football."

The addition of Rutgers gives TSU two non-conference games against Football Bowl Subdivision (formerly Division I-A) opponents. The Tigers will also play Louisiana-Monroe of the Sun Belt Conference.

So Indiana St was able to secure a waiver from the NCAA to play a game that early...anyone know?
