Tough schedule..transition years always seem to have scheduling oddities....
A-State: An off year at 4-7 with a big win @Kansas State but uncharacteristic lopsided losses to co-champ Coastal Carolina, App State and Troy.....they did have a big win over the Bears
Missouri State: 0-3 in the weird fall season with losses to Oklahoma and UCA....then 5-2 in the spring season with a losses to NDSU and a playoff loss to North Dakota
UAPB: 4-1..best record in a long time......
SHS: Defending Southland and FCS champion
ACU: 1-5 record but with road losses to UTEP, Army and Virginia...an T loss to SFA..a loss to D2 Angelo State....tough year...win over Mercer from Southern Conference....
EKU: 3-6...split home and home with UCA...road losses to Marshall, West Virginia and Troy but a home loss to SFA
Lamar: 2-4 but a road win over McNeese
Jacksonville State: Strong 10-3 record with losses to Florida State and Austin Peay and FCS playoff round 2 loss to #5 Delaware....
Texas Wesleyan: 1-1 with all other games cancelled
SFA: Solid 6-4....losses all on road to UTEP, UTSA, SMU and Memphis
Tarleton State: Solid 5-3 record in spring season.....mixed D2 and D1 schedule....double OT home loss to McNeese....road win at New Mexico State...
I am really excited about this years schedule. I can easily see home wins with UAPB, and Stephen F Austin. As well as probable wins against Sam Houston and Eastern Kentucky. There should be some records broken on all aspects against Texas Wesleyan. Could probably let second string play the whole game and still win pretty decently. Very tough first two games on the road. Should be in prime time playing when playing Sam Houston.
