The Football schedule has been released. Its nothing we didn't expect, which is not good. We expected four games at the Doyt, one neutral site game @ Cleveland, and seven road games, including a game at Temple to replace our Boise State home game. And that is what we had.
Last year, the big complaint was no home games until late. This year, we are home 3 of the first five games, then play home only once more, in the middle of November against Miami. In fact, looked at one way, six of our last eight are on the road. With a young team, that's a problem.
Much gnashing of teeth in the Falcon nation. Too many early games....too few home games.
Let me say this. We have a lackluster home schedule. It will be hard to get people to show up. It would be even harder in cool weather. If we have any chance of drawing for Buffalo and Kent, then its the possibility of a beautiful early Fall day.
