    I'm guessing that two boatloads means they're asking a lot of $, and if we don't want a return trip then we would have to pay more. I'm not sure if we are looking for a home and home.

      well we didn't return a trip to Northwestern State....I'm sure that is remembered...

              The official 2008 schedule is up (not sure why it is tagged 2008-09 on the webpage) with updated game times. Here's the link.

                so are we officially only playing 11 games then? If that is the case I'm extremely disappointed. Why has scheduling been so bad again this year? I understood the problems last year with WKU leaving the Gateway but we added 2 more gateway teams this year and still have trouble filling our schedule. I'd rather pound Drake again in the dome then have no game at all.

                  I dont know if it necessarily means its "official". A lot of schools put partial schedules up on their site and add in games later.

                    FWIW - we cemented our schedule last year on 4/9/07 so we're getting to that point where its got to be "do or die" time for finding that 12th game.

                    Again, I'll say, there has to be an FCS nonschollie out there that we could offer up a trip to the Dome with a minimal (by most standards) guarantee and even a buyout of a game they might have scheduled already.

                      This is a terrible schedule...There is some tough tough games on there, not to mention that we have one home game in the last 5 weeks of the season. Why is it so hard to get a decent schedule? Wouldn't it be more benificial to play the little sisters of the poor in the Dome than not having another game?

                        It costs money to schedule patsies. Something that UNI does not have an abundance of.

                          FYI, there is an article on the UNI website about the schedule. Looks like 11 games is all we are getting. Two straight years with only 5 home games isn't good. Hartzell/Farley should have taken care of that. Oh well.

                            only 11 games...only 5 home games for two strait years....bad road schedules two years in a row. I realize that to get games costs money, but we are definitley one of the more successful FCS programs in the country. Why can't we get ANYONE to play for a 12th game?

                                Don't think they didn't try. If we have the money it isn't a problem. We still have to pay the bills.
