Sorry, I refuse to be excited about Tarleton, North Alabama, etc.

 

 

[MeanGreen22]

People that wanna complain about this need to chill. Every school has filler scheduled every year. Better than bringing Portland State (too soon?)

[Green Otaku]

With the changing landscape of college football it would have been prudent to wait. Some teams will have OOC holes that they need to fill. 

[meanrob]

Am I weird for complaining about the “concerts” but ok scheduling FCS teams?…..don’t answer that. 
 

I’d go to Kalamazoo for a fall football game.

Why get rid of Tarleton? Texas school that will bring a big crowd.

I was just about to say this. They're not even 100 miles (112 according to google) away. Hell I wouldn't be shocked if they had more fans at the game than SMU.

Setting the bar pretty low there.   If we played The University of Cairo, they would bring more fans than SMU.

Because schools are judged by the schools they choose to play.  UNT will never elevate itself if it keeps playing SFA, Tarleton, Abilene Christian, Houston Baptist and the like.

[Matt from A700]

I would like to visit Kalamazoo, too, especially when it's still warm.

We should be scheduling Tarleton for every revenue sport nonconference season in my opinion. They will bring a good crowd, since they hand out diplomas from a drive-thru window according to my high school science teacher.

North Alabama doesn't move the needle, but South Alabama next year gets me hyped because that's a Labor Day weekend trip to Gulf Shores.

I feel like Baylor scheduled like three of those teams every year for a while. And all at home.

[greenminer]

Hawaii would have more fans than SMU.

This is flat out false. A lot of schools play FCS opponents almost every year. No one cares.

Not gonna lie, University of Cairo would be a sweet return trip though 

[DeepGreen]

Tarlton and North Alabama?

Where is North Alabama?  And if you tell me it's in Northern Alabama I'm gonna "virtually" punch you in the mouth!

Allen High would bring a crowd, maybe we can get them on the schedule too?

[NorthTexasWeLove]

That's meh. If we're deadset on these type of H/H then go get ULL, Co St, AF, SDSU, etc. We're playing the least interesting programs from these 2 conferences. 

[ntmeangreen11]

The FCS teams do not matter to me at all, I will take an easier W early in the season every year. This obviously isn't the pick of the litter for G5 teams to sign home and homes with but I would imagine the conference switch messed things up considerably. 

It is what it is, we should be able to win every one of these games you can't argue with that.

I don't remember any of the FCS TX schools bringing a large crowd. The only Texas School I remember bringing a big crows was Houston.

How will they ever elevate themselves?

Other games also on the 2027 and 2029 schedule: Texas Tech and Baylor respectively. It’ll be okay folks. Promise.
