Clemson helping UCONN?? Interesting...
You forgot the obligatory tin hat kitty pick. Btw - that cat has to be 20 at this point.Clemson helping UCONN?? Interesting...
Wasn't Clesmon on our schedule as money game?
In 2021, we need Wyoming to come here rather than go there.Should we be excited about playing Wyoming? Beautiful state and all, but our Indie schedule includes a few teams that are more distant that the AAC teams and not as interesting football wise, which should not be taken as me liking the AAC.
I can't tell by this response if you are aware that Wyoming is in the Mountain West and therefore is DI. I don't see basketball coming into play on any discussion with a Mountain West team.I wonder if that means that Clemson will actually help pay Wyoming for a visit to East Hartford.
We have Holy Cross scheduled for 2021 and Central Connecticut scheduled for 2022. The first season with no DII team is 2024. We could probably give either a basketball game or two instead and move Wyoming into that slot.
I know why we need to schedule these games. Just my belief that a lot of the schedule is less interesting football wise than the AAC and I disliked the AAC. Our move out was for hoops, and I like that part, but we all know football is the stepchild.In 2021, we need Wyoming to come here rather than go there.
We have four games to fill and so far we have just three home games vs five road games. Wyoming was planning to visit Clemson, so a road game was already something on deck for Wyoming.

Really? I know it's all opinion and preference but I'd much rather play Wyoming then 90% of the AAC. It's a state flagship school vs directional Florida, not a state Carolina, or whatever a Tulane is.I know why we need to schedule these games.

Thanks, I did think Wyoming was a DII team.I can't tell by this response if you are aware that Wyoming is in the Mountain West and therefore is DI. I don't see basketball coming into play on any discussion with a Mountain West team.
DII does not equal FCSWe have Holy Cross scheduled for 2021 and Central Connecticut scheduled for 2022. The first season with no DII team is 2024.

As you say, all opinion and preference. I don’t think being a state flagship school means much for football purposes depending on the program Houston and UCF get some attention that Wyoming just doesn’t.Really?

To quote Ivan Drago: "If he dies, he dies!"so you get to face Diaco at home on 9/11. That could be interesting.
