Believe they are FCS and who needs more
Portland State blabbering. Pay them off
and replace with a beatable FBS team looking
for a payday. I realize schedules are set but
money talks.

    Agree but now's the time to make an effort
    to get back to previous philosophy of not
    scheduling these games. Think we were one
    of three or four teams who had never scheduled
    down until very recently. It can still be
    somewhat of a scrimmage but playing teams who
    your second and third string can beat is a waste of
    time for the fans.

    Putting much stock into OOC games is retarded when there is no guarantee the team you schedule will be good.

    Rutgers was solid when they got put on the schedule. Wisconsin was already playing LSU and backed out on us.

    Michigan scheduled Colorado when they were fucking horrible.

    Herbie....suck my dick

    Just saying drop the FCS crap. No one knows
    the future of teams but at least schedule the
    FBS level.
    Agreed

    Just random hunting around. UW and Vanderbilt
    both have FCS opponents next year Sept. 9. Yeah
    tons of details to get by but hell would much rather
    see an SEC club than a Montana walkover.

    I read the thread title as "So Does Jen C. Try to Get Montana Off?" and though perhaps finally she was going to show her tits.

    That really should be written into Peterman's new contract - obligatory flash for conference titles.

    Disagree. This is definitely one of those occasions
    where the fantasy is better than the reality.

    Not all at once, maybe 4-6 players at a time.

    Why would Vandy do this? They aren't in a position to be setting themselves up with a likely loss when they are doing what they can to get to 6+ wins on the year.

    $. A home and home with UW is likely to be a
    bigger moneymaker than Alabama A and M.
    Also generates more interest for your season
    ticket holders which I'm sure Vandy would be
    interested in. Point taken about a likely loss
    but bowls are taking 5 win teams now, not to
    mention that any bowl Vandy goes to is a likely
    money loser anyway.

    There is zero.point.zero chance of Vanderbilt agreeing to this.

    SEC schools are fine with one scheduling major conference opponent and 3 mid-major/I-AA opponents every year to go with their 8 conference games.

    And the people who talk about college football on ESPN seem fine with SEC schools doing this, too.

    FYI: Here is Alabama's non-conference schedule for the next three seasons.

    2017
    Florida State (neutral site)
    Fresno State
    Colorado State
    Mercer

    2018
    Louisville (neutral site)
    Arkansas State
    UL Lafayette
    Citadel

    2019
    Duke (neutral site)
    Southern Mississippi
    TBA
    TBA

    Bama has a lot of wiggle room to get away
    with that shit. We don't. Bama will draw full
    houses playing the local high school team.
    We won't. Even if we were a perennial top 5
    team, Husky fans won't come watch shit.
    A, B, C schedule please. Montana, North
    Dakota, Sac. State and Montana again
    are F,F,D,F. That's just buttfucking your
    fan base.

    We are entering the neutral site game era against Auburn in 2018. Baby steps. Those neutral site openers seem to be the best way to get a decent game. I miss home and homes with good teams.

    I understand Sark and Woodward scheduling
    this dross to pad the schedule. Time for a mid course correction though.
    When the situation changes, good admins adjust. I was not a fan of
    the Jen C. hire. She'd go up massively in my worthless opinion by getting
    this garbage off the schedule. She's got a great chance this off season to
    goose the season ticket base. Leaving dreck on the schedule doesn't
    help that.

    Montana is a solid FCS team, much better tradition than Portland St. They normally contend for the Big Sky. The FCS opponent should only be the first team played as kind of a warm up, but book only a good one with a lengthy winning tradition. actually since the huskys are a contender now, and this may shock some, I think it's time to drop these FCS games! It looks bad for the idiot playoff committee later. But, for mid-level PAC teams, I see no problem with it so long as you book a solid FCS club, and it's first on the schedule. That gives the FCS teams some pub, and is about like a mid or lower level FBS team.
