Wouldn't we have Western Illinois at home? Unless of course they need to change the schedule up to accommodate NDSU and SDSU entering the Gateway.

That's what I don't get JC...

Why don't we get WIU at home and go to NDSU??

Are only 5 home games going to be the norm now??

Is a FBS game such as ISU where they only pay like $250k worthwhile if we can continue to sell out the dome???

Re: Partial '08 Schedule?

Realize that's only 10 games, so we still get one more, though i do agree it will more than likely be a FBS pay-day(i'd like to LSU maybe, then id be able to catch the cats next year since ill be in Mississippi for my A school

Re: Partial '08 Schedule?

Next year is a 12 game year... I would think we will have 6 in the Dome and 6 on the road...

Are you sure Brett I had never heard that for sure?

Re: Partial '08 Schedule?

I know that it is a 12 game eligible year and that a lot of FCS teams are playing 12. (Something with the number of Saturdays between Labor Day and Thanksgiving).

I can't imagine Hartzell passing on either a home game revenue or a FBS money game. I think econimically you have to take both even if you bring in a non-scholly or other low level FCS team to fill that 6th home date.

I do know that I don't want a schedule with road games at SIU, YSU and NDSU....ouch!!!!

Re: Partial '08 Schedule?

Whoops, looks like my mind got going faster than my fingers I meant to type that the schedule is only 10 games, not 11(just count there's only 10) which means there's only one more game(prolly an FBS payday) left to schedule. and it looks balanced (4 home conf 4 away) though traveling twice to NDSU and SDSU and the other years is gonna bite I could see the league switching one of the XDSU and say the WIU game(we went there last year) but we'll see its gonna be a long summer though.

Re: Partial '08 Schedule?

The 11th game will be at a FBS school if we can find one willing to play us. The only way we get a 6th home game is if we bring in a DII team or possibly Drake.

I believe South Dakota is in their first transitional year, thus they pretty much still count as a DII (or at least, they don't can't as a D-I game yet)
