They play in the new raiders stadium in Vegas! Sounds like a fun weekend trip in 2022

[Wag Tag]

Would really like to see more MWC teams. CSU would be nice. GMG 

[untjim1995]

Great move, WB!! That’s a very nice series to play.

[UNTLifer]

I would like to see these agreements with the first game being played at Apogee.  Seems we are always on the back end hosting allowing the other teams time to bail if they choose.  Otherwise, love the agreement.

[Marty]

Nice road trip!

Lifer, what is our home schedule for 2022&

 

GMG

I lived in Vegas for 19 years.  I saw the game in 1995 when UNT came back to D1.  I guess we're making a trip back!

Usually, the team from the better conference gets the first home game...

I was about to say... do we have any home nonconference games from 2021-2024?? Lol.

Yes and with fewer years in between.  And I don’t perceive this particular opponent as really that different from us outside of a bit better conference, a basketball natty and a cool city.  Definitely on the right trajectory though and I’m all for this and the Wyoming deal.

Not me... Newspapers, kickoff times, etc.

We should only play OOC games on the east coast, or maybe at a neutral site in London like the NFL does.

Looking at our future schedules one can usually predict when the opponents will be having their best years

I love the match up.  I hate the terms.  If we don’t get the first game, there likely will not be a second game.  If it’s a good series it will be just as good playing at Apogee first.

Cal and Memphis at home in 2023 is pretty sweet.

Good point. Still not convinced Cal will end up here

I don’t think Cal ever makes that trip (or intended to)

Funny thing when in Berkeley last year... a few of us are walking the Memorial Stadium promenade when a Cal megadonor thanks us for making the trip and whisks us onto the field with passes for pregame. Funny, gregarious dude, was generally wielding a lot of clout.

We mentioned at one point the return trip in 2023. He seemed surprised it was even a home-and-home, and laughed, “ha, no. I’m definitely buying that one out. Hahaha.”

🤷🏼‍♂️

At least we got this cool moment.

Yes, I agree...I want to join the Far East Conference. Road games in London, Paris, Istanbul, Moscow, Rome, and Boca Raton/Miami. We always have to be in a conference with F_U...
