Re: Future Schedules

because the payout is so awful for those games

Re: Future Schedules

Is there a reason why we are we never able to schedule some bad FBS teams? We are always playing Iowa, BYU, Wisc type teams (even Iowa State has been pretty decent the last few years), and those games are just so tough to win. Why can't we schedule Kansas, Minnesota, Indiana, Colorado type games? NDSU somehow is getting these types of teams on their schedule every single year, and they are winning a good number of them. This is something we need to do, especially if we are going to need to continue playing 2 FBS games.

NDSU doesn't have two FBS teams in their state that they have to deal with. I'd like to see it also but they have a different situation.

Re: Future Schedules

im guessing that lower tier BCS teams dont want to risk losing to us.

With the expansion of FCS playoffs next year the Pioneer Champion is guaranteed a playoff spot.

I know, and it is an absolute travesty. The Pioneer league is nothing more than a Division III football conference.

The FCS committee & the ones that determine these rules are complete & total morons.

Re: Future Schedules

Back to next years schedule, just our luck. After years of being horrible, we play Northern Colorado now that they look decent this year.

Compared to previous years, yes. They did have more votes than us in last weeks AGS poll, for what that's worth.

It's not hard to look more respectable than a team that didn't win a single game last year, and hasn't won more than three games since moving up from D2 in 2006. (Combined record before this year was 9-58...1-10, 1-11, 1-10, 3-8, 3-8, 0-11...with a 3-6 record this year that is likely to finish at 3-8 again.) Of their 12 wins as of today since 2006 6 of them have been against D2/transitioning schools or non-scholly D1 teams...with 4 of those coming against Idaho State.


Yeah, I'm not real worried.

You think WE have it bad? UNC must compete against two FBS teams AND an NFL team for attention. And Greeley is skinky.

Re: Future Schedules

Based on what Troy Dannen has said and other conference schools releasing their official 2013 schedules, the Panther's 2013 schedule currently looks like this.

8-31 at Iowa State
9-7 Drake
9-14 OPEN
9-21 at Northern Colorado
9-28 OPEN
10-5 at North Dakota State
10-12 Southern Illinois
10-19 South Dakota
10-26 at South Dakota State
11-2 at Illinois State or at Missouri State
11-9 Youngstown State
11-16 Western Illinois
11-23 at Illinois State or at Missouri State

Re: Future Schedules

Right on. I am 99% sure that Missouri State is 11-2 and Illinois State is 11-23.

I just don't understand how our league schedule fluxuates so much. Most schedule rotations put teams on the same weekends, but never in the Valley. This year could have been much, much different if we would have played YSU in November rather than September.

Re: Future Schedules

When would we play Indiana State again? That'd be the second season in a row now.

all teams have the same "off" team for two years in a row. That's how it is set up, as you are "skipping" both a home game and an away game against that team.
