What "Out of Conference" Opponents do we have for next year?

[elPRESIDENTE]

Looking to see if anybody has insight to next year's non-conference teams we play next year and which ones are home games?

Also, do we still have the contract to play SMU in 2014?

It's not looking good so far for next season. I don't see any OOC home games yet. Might be a good season to schedule an FCS team at home, like Stephen F. Austin or Lamar.

We have Ball State and Ohio in back-to-back weekend in early September in 2013. SMU at home starts the series in 2014.

Our OOC schedule for the next few years is pretty ugly. So far three seasons with only five home games unless we figure something out.

Can't wait till 09/21/13

[FireFightnJoey]

I can't wait until 2012! Two games in Houston. Hell yeah!

LSU will suck, but hopefully we build enough this year that UH post Keenum will be winnable and we seem to do well lately against KState.

Uhh, the TSU game is in Denton and its our only OOC home game that year.

[UNT90]

Next year needs to be the last year of only 5 home games.

Dang, I can never catch a break! lol The 'vs' just blended in with all the "@"s.

[Texas Stranger]

What year is South Alabama's transition year ? Wouldn't that count as an OOC game ?

[LakeTravis]

Bottom Line: TOO many @, NOT enough VS

[LakeTravis]

Honestly, Pull the plug on LSU.

[NT03]

Honestly, Pull the plug on LSU.

I was told a few months ago that we were looking into it

A problem with the huge paycheck games is that they also have huge buyouts.

11/7/15... pre-game hamburger and red velvet cake at Litton's

[UNTcrazy727]

We need to cancel the LSU, Texas, and Tennessee games now!

2013 could be our year though depending on who we schedule for the last OOC game. The team that year will be senior heavy. led by Orr, Chancelor and Thompson to name a few.

They will need to add A%M to their schedule. Perhaps that can get us out of that game.

A few of us were talking with Rick V at a tail gate and I believe I understood him to say he was still trying to do something for next years OOC home schedule.

I am not one who wants to play any school below our division as Texas Southern U is, but at one time we were 1-AA and on the D1-A UT Longhorn's football schedule several times (and others similar as well).

Might be in our best interest to adopt Bill Snyder's old Kansas State "schedule a few potential patsy schools" scheduling formula until we can get this team some confidence and some wins. I know we have been the patsy in the past, but man can't you feel that will soon be a thing of the past?

Spoke to an IU alum who drove down from Bloomington at half time and he was very, very kind about all that he saw at our Apogee Stadium and what he sees as a true program on the rise.

He grew up in Iowa so he for certain had nothing but praise for Pope Fry and I told him we had one of Pope Fry's, uh, Cardinals with our hiring of Bill McCarney. He was really a nice, cordial Hoosier and we wished each other's teams a good year.

It is so great to be able to experience major college football with all the ammenties in Denton, Texas, America. Looks like the Denia-ites are probably happy about it, too, after looking at a few of their yard signs with "Park Here" written on them.

I think you mean Dan McCarney. Bill McCartney was the Colorado coach who founded Promise Keepers.

Why do you keep calling him Bill McCarney? Is it some sort of in joke?

Gol' darn those senior moments!

I know I told him "Dan" but I just posted Bill because I am dog tired MG 93-98. It has been a busy weekend. DJ'ed a birthday party in Granbury on Friday night that earlier in the week was moved from Saturday to Friday; then I spent time with my Mean Green & Friends at the Mean Green Village from 3:15 PM till I got back to Weatherford post-game about midnight and today...I DJ'ed a 50'th Wedding Annivesary at a venue between Wea'ford and Mineral Wells. I'm not sure I know my name at the moment, but thanks for the correction anyway. lol!

GMG!

Something can be worked out. It can be moved to another season, or LSU may just decide to play someone else if we ask to back out.

[GTWT]

We need to play the LSUs of the world, and not just for money - it's also a great recruiting tool.

God bless Texas!

[stebo]

Hey Plummer,

So you were able to get out of that gig this weekend or did you talk to some other IU alum? I hope you were able to make the game - great atmosphere for our first win ever!
