UNLV and Utah St at home makes for a decent non-con. Surprising that SDSU gets back to back home games.

Surprising that SDSU gets back to back home games.

In years 1 and 2 you played one of each. In 3 and 4, they really have to shuffle some of that to open up opportunities for better matchups.


And USU and UNLV do make for a couple of nice home games on next years schedule.

I do home the MWC/MVC continues beyond the 4th year. The Valley doesn't look great with the record standing at 6-12, but the 1-8 we went this year makes it look worse than it should be. Hopefully we step up next year and even that out a bit. As long as it's near .500 we'll look decent and hopefully that'll be enough for it to continue. It'd really help if the league in general would try and schedule better to help the RPI cause which would help the MWC as well.

UNLV at home, love it!!

Come to think of it, why don't we just join the MWC? :D

Wonder how the Valley choose who didn't get to play? Here's the MWC link:

UNLV is 16-5 overall and receiving votes in both polls. They are currently in 4th place in the MWC with a 4-3 record. BYU, San Diego State and surprising Colorado State are the 1-3 teams.

Only 2 of their top 7 scorers are seniors. They have one recruit signed so far. He is a Rivals' top 150.

Perhaps it shouldn't be a joke. That would work and be easier than a football start up or trying to get a new league going.

Without that already having been done, it would be a huge joke to the MWC, unfortunately.


I will not be held responsible if this devolves into more football discussion. I pre-blame cjp27 for his comment! That was like yelling "fire!" in a crowded theater!!!

Speaking of football......anything else out of the SGA since the survey?

[AndShock]

Can we please have this game at Koch Arena?

[tropicalshox]

Since cjp27 is being blamed here's another football question. Wasn't a little old lady told that lawyers were working on a football plan and it would be announced around Christmas??

[tropicalshox]

Can we please have this game at Koch Arena?

Yes, if we play Utah State at IBA or a miracle happens and we add another good opponent to next year's home schedule.
