[QUOTE="slugboy, post: 912654, member: 282"] If you’re a top 40 team, option 1 is a lot easier. We only get to play one FCS team a year, and we do. That’s one patsy (and we lost to the patsy in Collins’ first year). There are 130 FBS teams, and you’ve got the top 40, the bottom 40, and the great middle. For most of the bottom 40, they’re either taking a payday for their OOC game or maybe they’re picking a game they think they can win. For those payday games, that means that there’s competition to play UMASS and we’ll have to outbid those teams. Then, there’s the uglier problem. WE’VE been in the bottom 40 for the last 4 years—we’re the FBS patsy. The bottom 20 teams are a lot worse than the next 20, but when you’re looking for an easy game it’s really tough when YOU’RE the easy game. We “bought” two wins last season—Kennesaw State and NIU. We lost to NIU. So, we’re somewhere between scheduling option 1 and option 2 right now. We should have been able to win against UCF, who is in the “great middle”. Until we work ourselves up, there aren’t as many patsies to schedule as we need. [/QUOTE]
