He said that was the main reason we are talking to BYU. Both sides agree that G5 schools are going to have to start scheduling together if they want to have a chance to crack the access bowls. Its no longer about convincing someone to come to Jonesboro...its about the understanding that we have to work together if we plan to grow.

I wonder how much loner it will be before other G5 schools drop FCS scheduling. From listening to Terry, the UCA game is a favor being done because of our relationship with their Athletic Department, and was scheduled with the knowledge that the game might not happen again for a while. He's admittedly nervous about playing an FCS even that year because of the playoff situation.
