You improved your scheduling recently and are on the right track. More OOC games with CAA and upper tier OVC teams vs two Big South, the better right now and those two CAA playoff teams this year gives a good chance for an at large or a seed if you go 9-2.

We do. We've play at least half of those teams. We've also played comparable FCS teams.

Didn't say it was resent, or of consequence, just that it did happen.

Well yeah - but I'm talking about those far off FCS conferences like the Big Sky. I'd also like to see us do a home and home with MVFC conference teams

BUt let's don't pretend that we schedule the CAA and other the way we used to - we have largely replaced those games with games against the Big South teams, with a few exceptions

Towson has been a good start but until we follow it up with someone other than Elon it's still just a blip
