I agree with some that 9/10 wins is the number to shoot for.

We are replacing some key guys on both offense and defense. With these holes to fill and a typical schedule I would say shoot for 7/8 - however, 2 FCS clubs and Toledo, Miami OH, Temple. If the program is where we say it is then this year should not be a problem considering strength of schedule.

In 2013, they’ll play Purdue and Northwestern State at home with road games at Illinois (Soldier Field in Chicago) and Miami. In 2014, they’ll play Stony Book, Toledo and Miami at home with a road game at Ohio State. And in 2015, they’ll play Alabama A&M and Air Force at home, with road games at Miami and Miami, Fla.

Soldier Field in Chicago!! Awesome place to visit, and great historic stadium. Funny though, how MT is already starting to move UI games

Not a big deal. It's the annual FCS game. Now if they throw another FCS team on the schedule, we'll have problems.

Living in Chicago I'm obviously ecstatic about this change! I was planning on going to this game but the move only saves me a long, boring trip down to Champaign.
