3 P5 road trips.

As a current season ticket holder’s view, that leaves one none interesting non-conference home game. ☹️

The next interesting non-conference home game is in 2025 against Marshall.

Next interesting non-conf home game is Sept 17 2022 when Pitt visits Waldo. Pitt will be looking for revenge.

Well yeah, but you know what I meant lol

It won't happen in 2024.

But it'll be interesting to see how we schedule that last open slot in 2025, though. A home FCS warmup or a third P5 road game? If it's the latter, then yeah, we're gearing up for predominately money games.

2025

@ MSU
vs. Marshall
@ Illinois
TBD

Miami hasn't won a non-con game in forever OOC. I believe they have 2 MAC Championships in that time period.

Ugh. Because starting 1-3 each year will really do a lot for the casual fan’s interest and excitement. Attendance will suffer for sure — especially for the freezing, mid-week November MACtion games…

I don't like these "PAY" games. First, it can mess with the confidence of our team and injuries. I don't mind two, but three is excessive. However we have some winnable games, Syracuse is terrible.

If Lester goes 9-4 and wins a MAC title he will be gone. Big ten job.

W/ just one 9-4 season? No. But a G5 school w/ a bigger budget than ours would be interested.
