Well, there goes the idea that maybe the AD was working on another home game this year...

Replacing FIU with South Alabama is huge as is the national telecast on Oct 16. This will help us showcase Apogee to a wide audience.

No reason we can't make the Houston game another home game. Plan to be there, period.

I despise weekday games, even for a TV opportunity. I wonder how bad northbound traffic will be on 35E that night.

Get there Monday night to tailgate. Problem solved.

Maybe we can get the Ticket to broadcast out there.

I don't believe the South Alabama game will count toward bowl eligibility if we beat Texas Southern. They are not yet officially I-A.

Last home game is Nov 10. AWESOME!

I will say the Texas Southern now makes sense after the LSU game and before the Kansas State game.

I hope this is the last season we EVER have less than 6 home games.

OCTOBER 16 NATIONALLY TELEVISED GAME @ APPOGEE!!!!!

Right. Out of my own greed, I wish the televised game was an away game, so I could watch it with ESPN/2 quality.

BUT, I understand the magnitude of having ESPN at Apogee, and for that, I'm extatic! Maybe with their camera crews enjoying the state of the art complex, they would put in a good word for us in conf. re-alignment talks...

I am more worried about getting a good sized crowd into the stadium. A Tuesday night game with hopefully a 7 PM kick-off won't be doing the program very many favors.

So we got shorted a home game and we have a weekday game. So, basically we have 4 chances to tailgate for real. I guess me, THOR, and UNT90GRAD are going to have blow it out on Saturdays.

Am I the only one that thinks this schedule sucks? Our only OOC home game is against Tx Southern? I predict our average attendance this season will drop substantially.

We're just going to have to convince people to take a half day off, sort of like when the Ballpark opens etc. I actually think this would be beneficial as far as getting students there. And as usual, a big non conference win and/or solid performances don't hurt.

You better believe that if we come away from Houston with a win, Apogee will be rocking for ESPN/2. Weekday or not.

I'm glad somebody said what I was thinking! +1 to you my friend.

ummm...5 tailgating chances...i'm taking off that day...and probably the day after!!!

Hard to believe we could not drop Tx Southern for a real team.

At least USA is officially in our conference and they do count.

That's a pretty tall order Harry. Hopefully we can win 2 of 3 against Troy, FAU, and Houston in addition to beating Texas Southern and go into the game with a 3-3 record.

My thoughts exactly. If we go into this game 1-5 or even 2-4 we're going to have some major attendence problems.

This sucks reel reel bad. Dang.

Crap.

How do you sell and promote your program with such a weak home schedule?

Here's hoping we have an amazing night on October 16 with a great game that gets viewers attention, and a win. Because outside of that, we got very little to promote.

Not a great schedule but there are two things I really like: I can probably fly in for the first home game and I can drive to the MTSU game. It appears those games match up well with my schedule.
