It's understandable to have one creampuff for the 1st game of the season, but it sucks when it's more than that. This year, our home schedule was Morehead State, Central Connecticut State, Delaware, W&M, URI, and Elon. None of those teams were good (although W&M being bad was a surprise). Only one game - Parent's Weekend - was a sell-out. There was no excitement for the team until we got to the "meat" of our schedule in early November.

The MVC won 3 P5 games this year...THREE, and others had their P5 opponents on the ropes. As ridiculous as it sounds that could be a step down. Also, at this stage, the FCS playoffs are also better football and more meaningful than MAC games would be
