This is an impressive schedule. Considering we can't get an FBS game, this has got to be one of the top schedules in FCS for next year - 7 FCS home opponents.

Interesting, and maybe a first in Bison history - only two regulars season games will be played outdoors.

Extra home game is nice. I wonder how many of the top FBS programs even consider scheduling games with the Bison. Seems like it's a long time until the game at Oregon. I'm not saying we would win, but it would be fun to play a team from the top half of the Big Ten or SEC.

7 homes games in 2018. 6 home games in 2019 plus the quasi-home game against Butler at Target Field.

Nice job JJ! If they can't fine an FBS team with the gonads to schedule them this is the next best thing.

#11/13 Iowa doesn't count?

Only negative is that week 2 is the bye.

And that the powers-that-be will make us vacate the tailgating lots in between games.

Hell, I'd like to just stay planted out there for the whole month.

North Alabama will be a FCS independent next year and in the Big South the next. They've been a solid D2 program for a long time. See how it shakes out, they might be our toughest non-con.

Delaware will be better than UNA IMO, but overall not a bad OOC with only 1 return game required to Delaware
