SBC 2023 cross division football games

[CajunEXPRESS]

Liberty’s Non conf schedule is done. I found it. I did notice army has 2 fcs home games in 2023. Delaware state and holy cross. Maybe they’d drop one of those and host us. It would be a 7th road game but that’s better than 2 fcs games, and could start a future relationship with army.

Think we’re contractually obligated to 6 home games

It's might be one of the new FCS call ups... or McNeese

I don't tweet (but do do squeak occasionally)...but I did notice Maggard tweeted something out about. Adding a P5 to the home schedule...it was a RT if I recall...

By the conference? So the belt would rather us have 2 fcs opponents then 5 home games? That’s dumb

Attendance will be weak again.

What is a do do squeak? Is it like a shart?

Ulm only has 5 home games so it might be learfield requirement

The conference, Learfield, ESPN take your pick. It seems everyone else is able to get P5 visits and still get 6 home games. I’d trade a P5 home game even if it meant 2 FCS home games. We’re absolutely the worst athletic department for football and basketball scheduling.

That would never work. They’d never come to agreements.

Disagree! It worked for the SEC; Alabama kept it's game with Tennessee, LSU kept it's game with Florida and Auburn kept it's game with Georgia. It can be done, there has to be a commitment to keeping good rivalries and growing your television audience.

That was done strictly for Alabama and Tennessee. For many years lsu fans and administrators were p!$$ed that they had to play Florida every year and their competition would have Vanderbilt and South Carolina. So that’s a very good example of exactly why most feel that doesn’t work. Most SEC schools want to do away with the common opponent but Alabama has that much stroke.

I don't care about the process, just the results. Where there is a will, there is a path to better scheduling.
