I'm sad to not see any teams like Appalachian State on this year's schedule. That puts the impetus on performing flawlessly with no slip-ups in conference, such as @ Sacramento State last year, in order to get a sniff at making the playoffs.
I know I'm dreaming but it would be nice to see a home and home series (they do that in football, right?) with the likes of Delaware, N. Iowa, S.Illinois, Cal Poly, NDSU...the list could go on and on. Playing S. Utah, which is understandably done due to the proximity for both teams, or New Mexico Highlands won't draw any kudos even with resounding wins.
NAU's program is not at the same level as Montana's but Souers and staff have shown that they can definitely compete over the past few years. Maybe it's like basketball and no one wants to play a road game to start the season at 7,000 feet if other choices are available?
