Cannot TV change the eventual date/time? TV dates/times usually aren't decided until the fall. Have you guys been guaranteed a Saturday playing date?

Our AD has announced that the game will not be switched from Saturday, so I'm guessing tv has guaranteed televising it that day

I know 7 straight without a bye is better than some with longer stretches, but that is a TOUGH run: at altitude for rivalry game with Air Force, Houston, short week for @ECU, Memphis, short week for @USF, back to Florida for ND, all of which makes Tulsa tough at the end of that.

That is indeed good news.

Don't half-a$$ it, go all in. Either it sucks, or it doesn't!

Well the tailgate itself it's ok, but I can only get there like one hour before kick off.

Somehow the wiki mention on the Tulsa vs Houston series page is still up.

ECU plays NO Friday games and only 1 Thursday game. Our annual debacle vs Navy. Otherwise, I like our home games and really like our OOC games (NC ST, SC and VT) All rivals from days past. Dowdy is going to fill up this season fellers. After next season the expansion will be official. 60k. I believe only BYU has a bigger OCS than ECU. I'm not counting schools that play in NFL stadiums. I don't count Rice either because they reduced expansion from 70k to 47k. I suppose when Notre Dame shows up they may use the upper decks again, but I digress! Cheers!

Why did UH have to play a November game (assumed to be really cold when scheduled) at UConn last year? Why does anyone ever have to play a warm or cold weather game if it's not their climate? Quit whining and play your schedule.

biggest issue I see with Memphis schedule is having to play at Mississippi, then turn around and have Temple just 5 days later. that's gong to be a real physical challenge. next biggest is having the bye week so freaking early. that's bad.

Only thing I worry about with Temple is opening with Army and Stony Brook. Penn State gets Pitt before us so they might be a little more battle tested however I expect to still win that game.

Also UConn, Cincy, and USF lined up will be tough but we get the last two at home

I already know how the Army-Temple game will go. Army will be down by 4, driving the ball and either we will fumble or call a stupid trick play.

And then in the 2nd quarter, Temple dominates.

Nah, the heartbreak for Army has to occur in the 4th quarter.

Army will be a very tough game for Temple. They get all key players back from a team that stayed close last year.

It will be a tough game but we will find a way to Coog it.

Last year, we whipped EMU and narrowly nipped Bucknell. Otherwise, we choked like a hot dog eating contestant.

When does Coog It enter the dictionary?

I think I will enter "coog it" in the online urban dictionary. Cheers!
