    Re: Future Schedules

    According to this post at Leatherneck Nation, Western Illinois will play at UNI on Sept. 24. Although I'm not sure where they received their information considering WIU has not released their 2011 schedule.

      Also, the October 8th game against Indiana State is UNI's homecoming game according to the calendar of events on the UNI website.

        I've updated the schedule now on the first page. Also, per the link above, the Illinois State game is also listed as the Nov. 19 date. There are two remaining games left to fill the schedule. At Missouri State and a non-conference game (probably home).

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.

          I actually like this schedule so far. I'd like to see that non-conference game be the weekend of Oct. 1st as Iowa has an off weekend and that tends to help the attendance, plus, I think if UNI is playing winning ball, the attendance #'s tend to be better in October/Novemeber. Family Weekend vs. WIU in late September, non-con game that first week in October, and then Indiana State for Homecoming that 2nd week in October. Off week would be either Nov. 12 (my preference) or week 3.

          The other thing to think about is that Missouri State is playing 2 FBS games this year (Oregon and Arkansas). The Arkansas game is week 1, with the Oregon game probably being week 3. That would mean the MSU game would have to be Oct. 1st or Nov. 12th.

          Will UNI look to get a 2nd FBS opponent next year? I had heard 2012 would be the first year, but maybe they would want to get a jump start on their revenue bump?

            Looks like the game at Missouri State will be October 1 as they play Indiana State on Nov. 12. So we will either have a bye week 3 or play all 3 our of non-conference games to start the season.

              I may have misspoken, now that I look at Oregon's schedule, they have week 3 and week 5 open, so MSU could play in Eugene in either spot. Regardless, it looks like UNI is locked into playing at MSU one of those weekends.

                In 2008, Troy Dannen was quoted in the Register as saying UNI would play Drake in 2011. Is this still on? And if it is, where will the game be played?

                  things very well could have changed since 2008. Though if we do play Drake, I would imagine it would have to be in CF for our 5th home game.

                  although I thought I read somewhere last month that UNI is slated to play South Dakota again this year (in CF), but that could have changed as well (or I could be misremembering)

                      Please don't be. Might as well play Cedar Falls High School.

                        nah, CFHS doesn't count as a D-I win.

                        Nothing wrong with having one "easier" non-conference game. Considering our other two are challenging road games.

                          We need to play more games like Drake. Its a DI win. The playoff committee doesn't care if we play a tough non-conf schedule. They just care that we win enough DI games. I'd rather get a DI win against Drake than lose to a top 10 SFA team.

                            Yup.

                            Kaboom.

And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."

                              I've been told that UNI bought out the previously scheduled Drake game. No Drake this year.

                                Thank God. They basically are a DIII team. Can find many more DI schools to get easy wins people.
