Scheduling: I would hate to be Maggard right now

[USL]

We are not the 130th ranked team in the country. We have the 130th ranked schedule(preseason) it will change as the year goes on. Current SOS is probably decent. We played a ranked fcs and a bowl team from last year.

Thank you for pointing out (preseason). If the Belt continues to play well, we will be no where near 130 in strength of schedule. Florida State already beat LA State so that helps as well.

[Policarp]

130 is 130 no matter how they compile it.

No one should ever schedule a team that has a 130 strength of schedule.

Do you remember what happened to Louisiana's post season potential after it scheduled the lowest SoS baseball team in the coumtry?

We dumped Wyoming to play current Sagarin 140's LTURd. Same guys moaning SoS praised the move.

My 2nd home is in Wyoming so I wasn't pleased......but playing the weaker team somehow had merit then.

Fact.....Most teams on schedule this year are trending well above last year.

I’ll be honest. I’m about over.
Attendance issues
Quality opponents
And any other crap outside of watching football.

When this 12 team playoff starts. We got to run the table to get there. And if we do Cajun field will have plenty people at that point.

When the 12 team playoff starts, no G5 will necessarily have to run the table and go undefeated. We will just need to be one of the top 6 ranked Conference Champions! The Cajuns are pretty close to that right now and Cincinnati is moving to the Big XII. So that takes them out unless they win the Big XII. A few others will also be moving to the Big XII.

Like you, I'm no longer wasting my time worrying about attendance, it is what it is and I enjoy going to the games to watch the Cajuns, regardless of the opponent. I'll let others do the complaining because I'm getting too old to worry about things I can't control.

Give it up, you can't have this discussion with someone who doesn't even understand this simple point.

Poli coming with the straight Fax. The turd will be FCS in a few years. They can join Southern and Grambling in the state school rotation to visit here. We need and can get more home and homes with Wyoming and better schools.

I'd like us to be more creative maybe a four game series spread over ten years with someone like Texas Tech. Home and home and one game in Dallas and one in New Orleans.

Maggard would never go for it....just because he's Maggard...

Wait, that's not right . . .

Do you really think the Necksters will be FCS?

I do agree in that scheduling h/h with CUSA or MAC makes no sense going forward. Our peer conference is now the MWC and a handful of teams in the future AAC. Our non conf OOC games that arent P5 absolutely must be at this level.

Still bummed we dropped Wyoming for freakin' LTURd.

4 non conference slots.

I like the In-State FCS tuneup game.
I like your idea of 1 for 1s with select MWC/AAC .
I like the other 2 non-cons to be P5 matchups. It gives you 1 payday slot and 1 Two for One slot.

This plus our SBC schedule is perfect for us.

So you want 0 for the last 8 to be the legacy of the rivalry?

Dude, these schedules aren't made 2 weeks before the season starts! LoL! They are made years in advance, and there's no way to determine what a team's SOS will be then. There are way more important factors looked at than SOS.
