I fear we've dedicated too much time building a thread around McNeese. Come on....it's McNeese.

Is that what this thread topic is? Oh, now that's just disgusting.

If it makes you feel any better, I could title a thread "skid marks"... and we'd soon be discussing life in outer space.

Sounds like some of my late night chats with friends in college...

Ok geniuses - what advantage is it to play McNeese? Nicholls? NW St? If we are looking for legitimacy in the eyes of CUSA, AAC or even the Big 12(-2) playing and beating the Sisters of the Poor does not provide the excitement and WOW factor these leagues are looking at!

Why do you assume we are guaranteed to get beat? Way to stay positive! And where in the hell did I say I want 3 or 4 money games? _____hat!

Scheduling is only difficult when the AD is lazy and doesn't network or think outside the box - I don't see UH, or Memphis, or USM struggling to schedule? I also see a lot of the P5 going to begin scheduling more games against themselves - I understand there are teams in the P5 that schedule 1AA, but we are not P5, we are trying to make a names for ourselves and they way to do that is to play the kind of opponents (VT, Marshall, Army, Navy, Air Force Academy, UH, Rice, SMU, TCU, SDSU, ECU, UCF, USF, GT, Baylor, etc). You old timers that liked the Southland conference can go watch the McNeeses' and Lamar's of the world, but I would much rather see us play the types of teams that we should be near or at least measure ourselves against than these teams that do nothing for GENERAL FAN EXCITEMENT - you want to build a brand, you want to build a demand, play schools whose names alone draw excitement and interest - we haven't played a decent schedule in a long time - thanks to the suck belt mostly - but also because of little swimmer boy - I'll give him props for the Boise St series, but that's it - he needs to get out of Lafayette and go visit places outside of the Crowley/Opelousas/Breaux Bridge circle and go visit these people and get us a better schedule - hell in the scheme of things an $800 flight to secure a game with any of the ones I mentioned would pay for itself in spades from general fan interest - quit think small time idiots - think. Big time!

Wait you mean the same University of Houston that is playing Grambling or the same Southern Miss that is playing Alcorn? Memphis, the one playing Austin Peay?

They must have lazy ADs too. You're a ____ing idiot. Step away from your computer please.

I don't know the answer to this question, but I'd love to know the last time any FBS school traveled to an FCS school.

It just doesn't happen anymore.

The last one I remember was Idaho going to Idaho State...and that's when Idaho moved up to FBS and that game was already contracted.

I don't go back nearly as far as you do (no age joke haha) but I know I have never seen it. Would make for a good trivia question.

A few recent examples:

Army is playing at Yale this year.

Ball State is playing at Indiana State this year.

Idaho played at Montana in 2003.

In 1984, the No. 8 Boston College Eagles traveled to in-state rival Holy Cross (the only time a ranked school has that I could find)

Don't we travel to ULM every other year?
