Good schedule, but a tough one.
Really glad to see A&T back on there!

Is the A&T game the one they canceled a few years ago to play an FBS team?
The year of two byes as well. If we are making a playoff push, having the bye before Towson could be big.

I thought we were able to schedule an extra game in these years Over the last 17 years I can remember 2 seasons where we played 12 games. That was great for the fans, but since we're back in the playoff mix again, I'm happy to take two byes. If we do well enough, we should be able to have another 2+ games (playoffs), anyway.

JMU is taking the extra game. My question is if a lot of the top teams take the extra game thus getting more wins will it hurt us come selection time

My question is if a lot of the top teams take the extra game thus getting more wins will it hurt us come selection time If we are a bubble team it could, or if we are competing for a Conference championship. For example, this year if JMU wins out and we win out JMU would still get the championship because of their higher winning percentage. (at least as I understand it). This would be due to the W&M game cancellation. I hope it wouldn't effect our getting into the playoffs because we should have better than the minimum necessary resume.

If we win out we will be a Top 8 seed. Winning takes care of the discussion. We can’t win the conference championship unless Delaware and JMU lose. Very narrow chance of that happening but we can win out and be a high seed.

Very narrow chance of that happening but we can win out and be a high seed. This was in reference to the implication of only having 11 games next year no 12 like some Teams.

Why on the green earth are we playing and FBS in week 4. The upsets happen in the first week or two, after week 3 typucally the best FCS teams get creamed. That game could hurt us badly

With an August 31 start, nearly every FCS school is playing 12 games this year. Why are we only playing 11?

I think we normally have 11 games. But strangely it appears that we have 2 byes.

We have several possibilities now locally but now our CAA conference games are a lot of travel to the great white north IMHO We need another conference game added to the over-all schedule.
