I've noticed more and more teams doing that.

Would have liked for the bye week to be closer to the middle of the season, but this is certainly better than a week 2 bye!

So for TV, my guess is we'll have the LA-Monroe game picked up (CBSSN perhaps), and UCLA will be picked up. Will be interesting to see if Southern Illinois and/or Georgia State get picked up. I'd bet at least one of them will. And of course, all of the conference games will be picked up. Nice to already have 3 ESPN games locked in, though.

5 Thurs/Fri games. I know the reason why, but I hate that we have to schedule that way.

The early season UCF game is interesting

Yeah, the offense should be relatively in sync early in the season. Hopefully all the new guys on defense can be on the same page, too.

RE: Football Schedule Out
8-4 is my prediction. Losses vs ucla, vs navy, @ houston, and @ tulsa.

5 days after playing navy, we play @ houston on espn. Yuck.

The bye week would be have been better before, between, or after the navy/houston games.

Btw, s illinois at home will not help attendance.

Georgia State is supposed to be converting Turner Field into their new FB stadium. I wonder if it will be ready for this season?

I've never been a huge fan of ATL, but that could make for a decent road trip this season.

I was wrong about the Georgia State game being set for November.

Bad sauces.

UCLA won't be a sellout nor will they beat us.

They will be better than last year but not a ranked team, and we will have a good turnout though.
