    The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

      They're working on it. This is just the preliminary release from the Spring Prospectus.

        I think it's time to put those dates on the calendar everyone. Start making plans and inviting friends to Cedar Falls and Des Moines and Ames for great times with your Panther Nation family! It's going to be a fun fall!

          I have nothing wrong with going to small little Drake and beating the heck out of them there, but really how many people does their stadium even fit? I just wonder where all the Drake fans and their wimpy bulldog are going to sit when the entire stadium is covered in purple and gold.

          Go Panthers!!!

            Drake Stadium is close to 15,000 I think. This website says that Drake opened with a capacity of 18,000, but I'm pretty sure that number has been decreased.

              What happened to South Dakota coming to the Dome on the 9th? It was listed in the Alumni Assoc calendar.
              "This program is the most important thing. It was here before we were here, and it will be here after we leave. Right now, we represent this program and this university. We represent the community, we represent the state, and we will do everything that we can to put UNI football at the level we're proud of and always have been at this university. When I'm talking about this program, I'm talking about alumni. This place is important to them, just as it is to me." - Mark Farley, Football Coach

                  Maybe we should consider getting another D-1 team on the schedule....at the very least, it would bring in some money for the program. I think we all know how hard money is to come by around here.

                    They are working on getting a D1 team to come into the Dome. However, I think they will try to get anything right now. I doubt they are looking for a D1-A "buy" game, but you never know.

                      TERRIBLE idea. While I am optimistic about this fall's team, we DO NOT want to risk 2 losses against IA opponents! We lose to ISU and IA "Team X", and the margin for error to get into the IAA playoffs is VERY slim; as in two conference losses and no playoffs... I also STRONGLY discourage hosting a DII team, as this would hurt playoff hopes as well. We need to get a game scheduled fast, but let's go for a mid-tier IAA! Heck, even a top IAA would be better than the other two options...

                        Improbable that a D1 would come to the Dome. At one time, D1's had to play all their games in stadiums of no less seating capacity than 30,000. This rule was to lessen the number of aspiring D1's such as UNI. Also, I believe for bowl and tv revenue sharing among all D1's there was a stipulation at one time they had to average a certain number of fans per game. That might be the reason some mid to low D1's give up home dates to satisfy attendance requirements. They're in the same boat we are: "build a program--you need more revenue, maintain your program--who do you play and for how much?

                          you're totally missing PttB's point.
                          D1 teams play in the Dome all the time, because
                          I-AA is part of division I (hence the whole I-AA).

                          but no, a division I-A team wouldn't play in the Dome because of the limited seating.


                          As far as not risking a potential 2nd loss against a D I-A school, I'm not so sure a second I-A loss would really hurt our chances anymore than a D2 win in the playoff committee's eyes. but since I've never actually been on the committee, I don't know for sure.

                            If we absolutely cannot schedule a I-AA opponent, then a I-A opponent would be better than a DII. I-A gives us a shot for an upset. A game with a DII is a lose-lose situation.

                            Also, I forgot to mention earlier for the poster that I was refuting: UNI playing a "money game" does not entirely go towards the football team. They only get an equal share of the proceeds from the athletic department. The football team getting beat on is what ends up partially funding women's tennis, softball, etc...

                              Drake Stadium just went through a big revonation stage and added a couple 1,000 seats The capacity is getting bigger but the attendance continues to get smaller is all.
