RE: MAC Schedule
Interesting to see...
- Will CMU game be late in the year, as it should?
- Any midweek games, and if so, how many?
- Will we get a couple "softer" opponents to open the MAC schedule instead of diving right into UT or NIU?

I'm interested to see if we end with NIU. This has been the case the last two years. Also interested to see when the bye week takes place.

I actually MUCH prefer when CMU game is early in year. Great weather,great crowd, both teams and fan bases still optimistic about the season, and way more interest in going to game. Cold weather keeps a big % of people away. I know I'm in minority, but I hate when that game is at end of season.

For this year, I most certainly agree. We'll beat the living dogsh!t out of them. They're weak, we'll smell blood and take it out of them post OSU/MSU/GaSouthern.
However, in CMU-good years, especially on the road, I would rather Not see us play too early. Due to rivalry, they're like a UT or NIU to us.

If you're in the minority, I'm in it with you for all of the reasons that you mentioned.

RE: MAC Schedule
What I like is after OSU 9/26 only 2 road games prior to 11/18
Could certainly be say 7-3 going into Toledo on 11/18
What I hate Saturday games end before Halloween.

At first I was thinking that was a racial quip - lol. But yes, I remember -- there are 11am games on the day after Thanksgiving. I guess they assume everyone ate too much, got stuffed, and fell asleep early?
