Scheduling: I would hate to be Maggard right now

[Jeaux]

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.

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?

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?

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.

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

Then why did FSU schedule us? Why did Iowa St schedule us? Why did Texas schedule us? Make this make sense without all the hyperbole

McNeese has a winning record vs UL from an era long before most can remember...& they still live in the past. My hot opinion is LET LTURd have the past.

Time to put our big boy pants on & move forward. UL will soon be 2x larger than LTURd in students. UL is R1; LTURd isn't anywhere remotely close to R1. Our endowment is something like 3-4x larger and expanding. Even geographic location favors UL. North Louisiana is a dead zone for business growth and in many parishes they are declining in population. Acadiana region isn't booming like Texas but it's doing OK.....especially true when comparing to N LA.
