One thing that I realized (off topic) is that Portland State is going to get some nice upgrades to their stadium ($31 million renovation to their football stadium thanks to the new MLS team).

It's basically last season's schedule but with the home teams switched.

Lindenwood is some NAIA school from Missouri apparently, never heard of them, I'll be skipping that one... I'll drive 75 miles to see an RMAC team but NAIA isn't worth it.

 

[Brian]

Check out one of their results from last season:

Lindenwood 90, Culver-Stockton 19

:shock:

They also have really nice facilities: http://www.lindenwoodlions.com/sports/2009/7/13/facilities.aspx?tab=facilities#Harlen%20C.%20Hunter

That being said, I would have much rather seen us play another old rival such as Nebraska-Omaha or even Western State.

Looks like Lindenwood might be making the jump to D2, http://www.lindenwoodlions.com/news/2011/1/25/FB_0125110423.aspx?path=football, I found this article. They're said to be joining the MIAA, with Fort Hays State and them, next year.

Looks like you get Weber for homecoming. I hope that's not because you're expecting an easy win! :wink:

 

[uncfootballrules]

I like the schedule overall. The CSU game is great. Lindenwood I could do without but at least a win is a win. We've never had a bye that I can recall. Must be the way our conference schedule falls.

Are you kidding? We are in no position to expect an easy win!

Yeah, the proper thing would have been to say "looks like you guys think you might not lose by 50 against us".

I'll fill in a little info about Lindenwood, since I've got some familiarity with the NAIA schools in that neck of the woods...

They've annually been a strong team in the Heart of America Conference, usually nationally ranked. That's the same conference as Mid-America Nazarine, where Jed Stugart was at before taking his one year stint at UNLV, then getting the job at Sioux Falls.

It's no surprise with their success over the years that they're making the move up. The MIAA is beginning to get to a point where they'll be splitting into two divisions, since they now stretch from Ft. Hays to the west to the Ozarks in the east.

Now, while you may frown on the fact they're NAIA, just keep in mind that our brethren in the Sky tend to play some each year...Granted, they usually aren't coming in from two states away, but there are no NAIA football teams in Colorado Closest would be Hastings.

North Dakota Sioux lost to an NAIA school. Could happen to us too. Especially under a new coaching staff and a BIG game the next weekend in Ft Collins.

 

[Brian]

Well they certainly seem to be able to put up points. Could be interesting for our defense.
