Future Schedules
Saw this Sean Frazier Tweet:
Sean T. Frazier @SeanTFrazier 9h
@cfn_ms @NIUAthletics @MattZemek @THEBDoherty Matthew, putting finishing touches on a balanced future FB schedule includes many BCS foes!
the link below is to the entire conversation:

Now of course this tweet mention anything about home games though his use of "balanced" does infer that to me.

RE: Future Schedules
Realistically we shouldn't be worrying about the old BCS system, its gone.
With only a 4 team CFP there is no way we will make that so the top goal is the GO5 Access Bowl.
I expect that Frazier has already had a conversation with Barry Alverez since he is a committee member.

RE: Future Schedules
This is huge to see this, if this "balance" does not include at least one or two BCS foes at home, we will know the direction this going. A seemingly innocent tweet by Frazier will show his true hand. I have to admit I am kind of excited.
And I agree with HJ that ship has kind of sailed with the BCS, I don't even think its about access bowl at this point. Our fan base needs to be built back up to remain in the highest level division of football going forward.
