Our AD announced on Twitter a few minutes ago that our schedule will be released tomorrow. Sorry if this is old news, but I hadn't heard anything about this yet.

First I've heard of it.

Looks like the schedules will come out today. FBS schedules site tweeted that it's likely because of the tweet from your AD. They came out about this time last year too.

MT AD confirms they will be released today.

FB schedules will be released at 2 pm ET today.

So who will have the OOC schedule that will be subject to public ridicule? Usually it's Marshall, but I don't think theirs is terrible in 2016.

Here's to hoping the MT-ODU matchup happens and it's not just flipping the home/away schedule from '15. I want all the guaranteed wins we can get.

No ODU this year. Same conference opponents from last year but sites reversed. MT only has 5 home games and one of them is an FCS team. Yawn

I would say ours is a good mixture....2 road games with the SEC (UK and LSU) will hopefully be a split at worst while the the home games (Troy and Savannah St) are must wins.

Marshall and WKU will remain on Black Friday.

Yeah, the OOC situation sucks but that's what happens when you're poor. The quotes from Selig in the Norfolk paper the other day made it seem like there was a chance the site switch may not happen in all cases but I doubt that will happen as the conference office is generally inept at recognizing rivalries/budding rivalries.

Here is what I have out to 2021 and will add the 2016 dates once they are available. Checking on some more rumors now of future OOC opponents

Kudos to your AD; that's a great home slate! Not only do you have two P5 schools at home, they're both winnable games

We released who and where last week. Today is just the when.
