Do you believe in.....

Scheduling the other 3 charter members for football games, even if they have to be OOC?

I do, I want Weber to play MSU, UM and ISU every year.

I do believe that. I can't imagine NOT playing the regulars each and every year, and I am worried about attendance if ISU does not. Not bashing the new members at all, I am just nervous.

The ISU-Weber game is a "protected" rivalry and they will play every year -- along with Portland State. Unforunately, we won't see either Montana school in Holt Arena after this season for three years. I don't know if ISU will try to schedule non-conference games with them, but there will certainly be complications in trying to do that -- ISU needs money games, for one thing, and has been playing two FBS schools every year recently. And getting dates to coincide will be another. But not having the two Montanas in Holt for three years will definitely impact attendance.
