This can't be true, has to be a joke or something.

I think its the time honored strategy of "put out some blah news right before some big news, and the blah news goes away"

Re: Cajuns Football sign a Home-and-Home
Boy that Maggard sure does have a knack for scheduling OOC games. What a joke.

Re: Cajuns Football sign a Home-and-Home
Just told my Kansas City coworker about this. "Oh, how the mighty have fallen. I'm sure Kennesaw State would love to beat you in your new stadium."

Re: Cajuns Football sign a Home-and-Home
Schedule already has 4 OOC games for 24. Assuming we are dropping the New Mexico State game?

We were scheduled to play NMSU next October, but it might be dropping due to the CUSA October midweek schedule.
Our 2024 non-conference opponents:
Grambling
Kennesaw State
Michigan State
Tulane

Re: Cajuns Football sign a Home-and-Home
We're supposed to tell ourselves K State is coming to Cajun Field! Its just the watered down CUSA version this time around.

Re: Cajuns Football sign a Home-and-Home
Lmao are you serious. Others are getting home and homes with P5s, we schedule home and home with a FCS. Lmfaoo

I'm terrified to think how next year will go. We get a mass defection of talent after this season and we're looking at dark days in 2024

Re: Cajuns Football sign a Home-and-Home
Has anyone checked out their stadium? There are some school districts in Texas that would refuse to play at KSU. They have a ton of potential, but they are many years away from being worth a home and home.
This is a FAIL.

Re: Cajuns Football sign a Home-and-Home
Kennesaw State isn't a sexy get, but it aligns with Maggard's scheduling philosophy of in-state FCS, one P5, and two G5 (Kennesaw joins CUSA in 2024).

Tulane, La Tech, Tulsa, Rice, and UAB are set to come to Cajun Field in future years. From the FCS ranks, Grambling and McNeese are also set to visit us. Kennesaw will be D1 in 2024.

Re: Cajuns Football sign a Home-and-Home
A joke? Like when app state and georgia southern moved up and whipped everybody's ass? or when coastal did it? or jmu? funny joke like that? or jax state is doing currently? kennesaw state started their program from scratch in 2015 and have 7 winning season out of 8 including 4 double digit win seasons and moved up to fbs in 8 years. South Alabama had their first winning season last year. Kennesaw has a $33 million dollar athletic budget right now in FCS.

Re: Cajuns Football sign a Home-and-Home
Likely had little choice if NMSU dropped us again due to CUSA scheduling requirements. Needed to find a D1 game.

Re: Cajuns Football sign a Home-and-Home
UL has no business going there for the first game....I've been trying to tell you guys, all you have to do is look at how pathetic our home ooc games are to throw Maggard out...
Are we recruiting the Atlanta area?

How the Frick did we go from scheduling home-and-homes with Alabama and Texas A&M back in the '90s to this garbage?! To me, scheduling a team that started playing football in 2015 is the equivalent of our basketball team scheduling games against NAIA opponents. It's so stupid! Also, if we want more than 15K at our fricking games, we gotta get opponents worth watching! This is a joke...

Dude. It’s a soccer stadium. I’m assuming we will be making the trip on that aspect alone.

It's a pretty cool soccer stadium if you look at it in that lens:

That just makes it even worse! Why would we want to go to a D2 level stadium first?! We have Cajun Field with 41K seats. Kennesaw State's stadium has 8K, and yeah the facility looks nice but it's gonna feel like we're playing a high school smh.
