As most posters I am ecstatic with the great start of this team. However, a glance at the schedule is quirky leading up to the conference schedule and then in conference, mostly 2 game road trips followed by only 1 home game. The exception is Wisconsin /Iowa but the Wisconsin game is at MSG. Then we end the year with 3 home games. Hopefully the team is battle tested before the road trips because if they are not the winning conference record will be difficult. Even the rest of December schedule is strange since after FDU on December 14 we are not back at the RAC until New year' s Day against Penn State and then on the road until January 12. If we can learn to win on the road then those 3 three final games at the RAC might be crucial for a winning season and will likely be packed. I am hoping they grow up quickly to make this year and next year memorable seasons on the Banks
Big 10 did us no favors in scheduling.
- Thread starter goru7
- Start date
I've posted this before, the Big 10 gave us home games for the bottom five teams in the league besides us. That is a HUGE favor.
5-13 is a realistic B1G record this season. Anything better would be outstanding.
As others have said, schedule is odd, one home game for basically a month from 12/14 to 1/12. And that one home game is on New Year's Day. Hopefully last 3 games at at the end of the year at the RAC will mean something. Its already alotta fun.
Football schedule next year is really awful.
