Bison Football Schedules 2010 & Beyond

[SDbison]

Since I am tired of seeing discussion of Bison football schedules in the Georgetown thread here is the place to discuss.
Anyone have the actual 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015 schedules to post here? Like to see where the holes are as maybe we can help Gene get this done a bit sooner (just kidding).
I would guess the conference stuff only goes out a few years with actual dates, but we know about the upcomnig out of conference FCS games with Georgia Southern (home) and Montana (home and away). Also have a few games with USD (home, away, home). What years and dates are those FCS out of conference games? Any others I missed?
Also, the Bison have plans to play FBS Kansas in 2010, Minnesota in 2011, Colorado State in 2013 and Iowa State in 2014. So who is Gene working on for an FBS game in 2012 (I have heard rumors that it will be Wisconsin)? Maybe Nebraska in 2015?
Anything I missed or need corrected?

I think they are on gobison.com. Sorry, don't have time to get the info right now, but I think it's there if you want to look at the future.

I haven't heard of Wisconsin or Nebraska and I hope either/both come to be. That would be awesome. I wouldn't give us much of a chance but it would be a great experience.

The other ones you listed will be fun as well....the difference is that I could see us being fairly competitive in those, maybe even pick up a win or two.

GoBison.com says Colorado State on Sept. 8th, 2012, then Montana State in 2013 with no FBS.

Thanks for posting the schedules in this thread Hammersmith. Just helps with the related discussion. So hopefully Taylor and Bohl can get Wisconsin for the FBS game in 2013. Would be great if Brock Jensen could be an experienced starter as a Senior and play in his home state against the Badgers. I am hoping the 2015 FBS game can be against Nebraska.

[SDbison]

Is there a link to where you can see FCS teams with open dates for 2011. Gene only needs one game for Sept 1st/3rd or Sept 10th. What are the possibilities? Get er done now Gene! Forget about UND.

[Grizzled]

I remember posting an article on here right after Jensen was recruited where the coaches told him he'd play against Wisconsin while he was at NDSU and that was one of the reasons he picked NDSU. That would be a great game for him and as our recruiting base spreads further into Wisconsin it would be another feather in the hat for future recruits.

I see Wisconsin only has schedules through 2011 posted at their official website. Not sure if you can get info elsewhere for 2013 to see if they have August 31 or Sept 14 open that year. I have heard the same story about Jensen and recently verified by a good source. Maybe the game is penciled in, but Wisconsin doesn't want it announced until closer to the 2013 season.
NOTE: I see USD has a game scheduled against Wisconsin in 2011.

This is just an old memory, so take it with a grain of salt. I think NDSU was negotiating with Wisconsin for a game during Jensen's recruitment, but that negotiation fell through for some reason(dates, money, etc.). It might have even been for the date that USD ended up getting. It's likely that GT is always trying for another game with the Badgers, but I don't think we can use what was said two years ago as a sign that a Wisconsin game is coming.

[SDbison]

Playing UND every other year, 2011, 2013 and 2015, would really have helped finalize our schedules for those years. Only problem would be playing at UND in 2013 would give 5 home and 6 away games (but isn't 2013 the next time 12 games can be scheduled in FCS so NDSU could get another game to make 6 home games)? This assumes there will be an FBS game in 2013.
I still think UND will change their tune and agree to an every other year cause they need help with their schedule. This time we should tell them no deal unless the first 3 games are in Fargo, then alternate locations for each game after that.....seems fair to me!

I have to believe a 2013 game against Wisconsin is being worked on if at all possible.

Why be fair when it comes to UND? Unless they're in our conference, play them in Fargo only.

The guy in charge of our season tickets talked with the ticket office yesterday - we picked up one vacated seat next to our groups and asked about the schedule. He was told there is a contract out there and its just waiting to get signed...wouldn't say with who.

So apparently we are close to getting that last game...

Does Lakes have the official scoop yet?

I wonder if there really is one game left for GT to get in 2014? That would assume that Taylor and/or Bohl think a 12 game season is desirable and I am not sure that is true.

I'd love to see some FBS games against more MW and MAC schools. WAC schools would be fun to see too.

Here is some information on the Morgan State Bears since it is most likely the 2010 schedule will be completed with a home game against them on Sept 18.:
http://www.morganstatebears.com/index.aspx?path=foot

Some players from Morgan State in the NFL: TE Visanthe Shiancoe with the Vikings and RB Chad Simpson of the Colts.

With the addition of the NDSU Bison on Sept 18 this will be one of two games against the Bison in 2010 for Morgan State. They play the Howard Bison on Sept 25.

Morgan State is playing at Maryland on Sept 11. The week prior to a possible game against NDSU.

The Bears play in the Mid Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) and had a record of 6-5 in 2009.

Morgan State is located in Baltimore, Maryland and has enrollment of 7500 students.

The Bears home field is Hughes Stadium with a synthetic grass surface and a capacity of 10,000 fans. In 2009 they had around 3,000 to 4,000 in attendance at their home games.

Morgan State's last playoff appearance was in 1979 in a 27-7 loss to DII Alabama A&M.

According to their website the Bears play a multiple pro offense and a multiple 4-3 defense.

[HandoEX]

Pleeeeeeeeeeease be Morgan State :praying: Any home FCS game would be perfect at this point, no matter who it is.

[lakesbison]

Morgan state will not be a patsy like wagner, valpo,,,,,,and ndsu will have zero cupcakes in the 2010 8-3 record!!
