As of today, Baylor hasn't announced their full 2023 schedule.
It's gonna be Baylor or another SLC school.
We'll either schedule a financial windfall and an opportunity for program growth or an empty victory.

No hate...just disappointment...

Re: New Mexico State dropped from 2023 Football Schedule
Can we have a 13 game schedule (sans a conference championship)? Schedule Baylor AND McNeese/Nicholls?
That said, what if the players want a sixth home game? Should they have a say-so?

I'd bet my money, if given a choice, the player would rather go on the road and play in a great environment vs the sad crowds at Cajun Field.

I believe that would be correct. Not only that, but the opportunity to prove yourself to the P5 world is a great motivator.

I am sure CUSA affiliation will take care of that one also. The sad thing is that Maggard scheduled the independent desperate to put together a schedule in the first place. That seems to be taking the easy road rather than working to get someone here that will spark interest in your fan base.

Any H and H in football with NMSU should always be tied to a H and H in basketball.

Glad to see I'm not the only one with this thought...Why the race to the bottom to fill out your schedule?

The elephant in the room is the obsession with 6 home games. That scheduling of NMSU probably would never have happened if not for that.

...and UNT was 6th, FIU was 12th, Nichols comes in at 13th and 17th. Should we schedule all of them every year?
What these games have in common is that they all took place in the first 3 years of Hud. Along with the late 70's and mid 90's, these years were a Golden era of Cajun football. Very successful teams, very good local economy, very good fortune.

Re: New Mexico State dropped from 2023 Football Schedule
There are things said in this thread that are not true. First of all, it was Scott Farmer who signed a 4 game home and home with New Mexico State. This first game of that contract was played at UL in 2018. We were scheduled to play at NMST in 2020, but was canceled due to Covid. They were coming here this year but had to drop us to fit their CUSA schedule. We still owe them a home game, which is on the schedule for next year. This did put us in a bind? Hell yes. Doc is doing everything he can, but the options are not good. Do not blame this on him this late in the game.
