St. Francis' record since moving up from D3 to I-AA/FCS. (they are in the Northeast Conference)
2008 0-11
2007 3-7
2006 3-8
2005 3-8
2004 3-8
2003 1-9
2002 2-8
2001 0-10
2000 0-11
1999 2-9
1998 0-10
1997 2-9
1996 3-7
1995 0-10
1994 2-7
1993 3-7

That is 27 wins over the past 16 seasons.
UNI has 24 wins over the past 2 seasons.

But, if we manage to win that game, it does count as a Div. I win

Looks like a 4-1 start before the schedule gets crazy....

Re: Panthers release 2009 Schedule

Wow. Good job again by Farley and co. to get 6 home games. We get another home game and an easy win that counts. Sounds good to me. Really tough three game stretch in the middle there with At NDSU and Homecoming against SIU and At SDSU.

Should be another run for a title. I cant wait. How long untill hells bells?

Re: Panthers release 2009 Schedule

St. Francis went straight from D3 to 1AA? Or was there a season of D2 in there?

Re: Panthers release 2009 Schedule

Didn't the Panthers play 12 games last year?

Re: Panthers release 2009 Schedule

FCS went to an 11 game schedule with a bye this year

Re: Panthers release 2009 Schedule

actually the 12 game season is only on the years with an extra week. FCS has always been 11.

Homecoming against the puppies? Hehehe....cool.

Re: Panthers release 2009 Schedule

That is just poor scheduling having SIU during Homecoming. We have to start avoiding that in the future. People come for SIU because its SIU, people come for homecoming because its homecoming. Why kill two great attendence dates with one game? That costs our dept. thousands!

Its like when the Cardinals and Cubs schedule each other on weekends like Labor day, or Memorial Day, or Fourth of July, why not play that series Tuesday Wednesday Thursday, people will come out on a Wednesday for Cubs Cards, not for Cards Pirates.

UGH!

St. Fransis (don't call me fransis) is a great pick up though.

Re: Panthers release 2009 Schedule

I think I agree, Jeg. They didn't have a lot of options, though. It was either that, or flip flop Family and Homecoming weekends.

Re: Panthers release 2009 Schedule

couldn't YSU be homecoming? the prior 2 weeks are the only ones where we're not at home for 2 weeks.

You're not having Homecoming in November.

You're not having Homecoming in November.

Maybe I am.

Re: Panthers release 2009 Schedule

Doesn't bother me. I predict another big time sellout and yet another UNI win.
