According to Paul Helgren, look for a BIG FB scheduling announcement later today. Anybody heard any rumblings ?
Toledo @ Michigan State...2020.
Solid schedule pickup. Great for Rocket fans to travel too.
That would be a nice game. Kudos to Sparty for being willing to schedule us, even if it is in East Lansing.
Thought it was SEC news though? I'm good with Sparty though.

At the reception in Cleveland, I could've swore I heard 2 SEC opponents. Perhaps that got changed
This is fantastic news. I didn't think this matchup would ever happen.

Maybe MSU is moving to the SEC?
Great news...winnable as well.
MSU has played AT a couple directional Michigan schools IIRC. Would be a nice coup to get a return game.

A Sparty visit to Savage Arena would be nice.

Ultimately, that's up to the SEC and the member schools. There's a chance UT was considered, but then a school or two considering bringing the Rockets in grabbed a really low FBS school like UNC Charlotte, Old Dominion, or Liberty.

It looks like UT has a 1AA/FCS opening in 2019 and two openings (probably one FCS and one FBS) in both 2020 and 2021.

Completely agree. A doubleheader with the men's and women's teams would be fun (though a nightmare on gameday for the athletic department).

That would be a great exchange. I imagine as done, done for economic benefit? Hopefully we don't go in as a charity case, "thank you for letting us come to your place." That would be sad, I'd rather play New Hampshire.

OK, no I wouldn't. But I wouldn't want a game schedule against a P5 that was going to clean out the Dept. wallet.
