Re: There's no crying in football!
Don't whine about it, I can tell you myself included many UD fans want a harder schedule. I've said for years, play an easier FCS team, a really good FCS team like yourselves, and a FBS team as our 3 NC games.
I still think we beat you guys handily though.

Re: There's no crying in football!
The strength of the schedule is great. We want to be challenged, right? Maybe we don't have real marquee home games, but doesn't that mean the following year we will? (assuming we flip flop sites each year with conference teams). I think 7-4 is a for sure...maybe even better.Leave a comment:

Re: There's no crying in football!
There has been talk in these threads as well as other boards, etc...7-4 maybe if we're lucky because of schedule. Some think 5-6. AL today, not that I can stop them. A lot of people in the AL live chat also just want to write the season off because of the schedule.
Home schedule looks great! I expect CAS to be fully rocking for Ill. St.: MVC Conf and supposedly the #3 or #4 best team in the league.Ill State will be a great home game. Missouri State is going to be tough too. and UND will be a nice game as well. Year's past WIU, and YSU had been tough, eventually they will be again(YSU next year for sure).Leave a comment:

Uh, who's whining?
The only thing that makes me sad is the lack of good home games.Leave a comment:

There's no crying in football!
I know there is very little to discuss currently. But the continual whining about the toughness of schedule for the Jacks has got to go. It isn't all Jacks fans it's other fans talking about us too. It's like the media and some fans are making excuses for our team already. I get it the schedule is tough. Should we not even take the field this year? I remember so many thought Ga Southern was going to be a close game or a loss, and that was at home. My opinion is the other schools have a really tough home game, and I'm not sure how they are going to pull it out. The disappointment of fans as they get beat in their house is always tough to take for those teams. My opinion is the schedule favors the Jacks again. The talk about a woe is us, how did we get this schedule is dumb. We got this schedule because to be the best, you have to play the best!!!!
This year we travel to all the "toughest opponents" with one of our best teams yet. A salty secondary, a great running back, a rising QB and WR corps. Again one of the best TE's in the MVC(nation? we'll see). And the play making Domino. A DL that is still intact even though Danny is gone!!
This plays in to the next year when we get all the "toughest opponents" at home again, when maybe the team will need to find it's identity after losing Minett and Domino, and some of that secondary. The next few years are very bright and the schedule is right where we want it to continue to get the recruits we want.
IT'S TIME TO BELIEVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Go Big! Go BLUE!!! GO JACKS!!!!!!!!!
