    I don't think it takes that long of a time for the body to reset itself after a long trip. Been in the military going overseas or crosscountry and didn't notice much of a difference (slept on plane, etc.)

    While having a week off may be nice, the high school kids play their (important) playoff games with just four days off of rest and the NFL has teams that play a Sunday - Thursday schedule. If it means finding a better opponent, I'm positive UNI players will handle a Sept. 20 game just fine.

      Different people are affected differently. I've been to Hawaii and to Europe several times and I don't notice any affect. I once worked in Witchita with a lady who came in from Colorado (one time zone) and she was out of it for two days adjusting. I was just out of college at the time and thought she was completely nuts, but I'm less judgmental now and accept it may have affected her that much.

        Hawaii 0-9 right now. We better win that game.

          It appears that we are getting that coveted 6th home game, and 12th overall, against a D1 opponent, Morgan State on 9/6.

          Great to hear, nice job getting it done to the AD.

            playing a very late game at Hawaii on 9/13 and then playing again on Tues 9/16? That would be...... interesting.

                  Let's clear this up. So below is our new schedule?
                  9/6 - Morgan st
                  9/13 - Hawaii
                  9/20 - northern colorado

                    Not a big fan of playing the week after the Hawaii trip. Holds thing UNC is pretty weak.

                      if that is indeed our schedule, that means we'd only face 4 teams that had winning records in 2013 (Iowa, SDSU, NDSU, SIU).

                      and there would be a month (as in 4 weeks, not a calendar month) in which we'd only face a trio of teams that went all went 1-11, with only one D1 win amongst them (Hawaii went 1-11 with a win over Army, UNC went 1-11 with a win over D2 Langston, then the bye week, followed by Indiana St whose only win was over D2 Quincy). and that stretch is bracketed by Morgan State (5-7 whose wins all came over MEAC teams) and South Dakota (4-8 though improving).

                      Of course, one of those games is against an FBS team on the road 4 time zones away.

                      In the end, I'm sure it will come down to whether or not UNI can claim at least a share of the MVFC title, as that seems to be the determining factor every year.

                        That seems the near opposite of the gauntlet we had to run through this season. Hopefully it can allow us to remain a bit healthier.

                          IF there is ever a year that you take too many JUCOs and Transfers for immediate depth.....this is the year!!!!!

                          I think Farley has too much riding on this season not to take immediate/mature depth...

                            Alot of younger players got quite a bit of playing time this season due to the injuries. And most of those injured players will be returning next season. Should help our depth.
                            Not saying that they shouldn't keep an eye out for JuCo and transfer players, just as they do every year, but I'm hopeful for next season.

                                I believe Drake is open that week. That was supposed to be a game v. Mercer, but they bailed for the Southern Conference.
