    That’s a nice pickup. Good work.

    This is good. We got a home game and it's against an FBS team that's been to a bowl game 4 of the past 5 years.

    I know it was 2017, but we drew 16k against NMSU. It was probably homecoming during Hud's way out.

    Buffalo > NMSU. Will it result in better attendance? I've given up trying to predict that. But I for one am more excited about having a different opponent. A better one, too.

    Who the hell do you want to schedule in this situation? From the attitude you've shown lately, the admin could have scheduled a home game with Alabama and you would still complain.

    Look, we thought we were either going to be playing an FCS opponent at home or a road FBS opponent at one point. We just picked up a quality FBS G5 opponent at home, this is the best we could do under the circumstances.

    Buffalo > NMSU or any of the other options that were out there.

    We now will have Nw State and Buffalo at home and Minnesota and UAB on the road. Nice out of conference slate to be honest with you.

    Hopefully it will be a slightly warm Saturday. Buffalo will be jelly legged by halftime. Coming from Canada. Haha

    Freaking A.

    We replaced a bottom of the barrel contemporary with a much better contemporary.

    So let's take a look at the "I'm ____ed at Ray Authement" check list.

    "If they schedule an FCS team, it sucks and I'm not renewing my season tickets", or

    "If they schedule a road game against a P5 team, it sucks and I'm not renewing my season tickets", or

    "They scheduled a better than average G5 contemporary, it sucks and I'm not renewing my tickets."

    Did I cover it all?

    My opinion it’s a good get. I just hope the return game is not in the dead of winter!

    I just think, for better or worse, UL can do better. Our peer University's in the Belt seem to outschedule us on a regular basis...why is that? Somehow, we should always strive to do better, especially with scheduling ( and just about everything else the athletic department touches)...
    I'll be there, just don't think this moves the needle much for the program

    I think AOC said the earth won’t exist by 2030. So no biggie.
