I’m tossing out some additional games from future Missouri State schedules (as listed on
https://fbschedules.com/ncaa). Please note that the publishing of those dates for MSU (and other schools) precedes the late-August SEC announcement that they will begin playing nine conference games vs eight starting in 2026, a move that will possibly/probably result in the cancellation of up to 16 currently scheduled non-con games per year.
Will all potential cancelations impact CUSA? Logically not at all, but two of the games on the following MSU list has the Bears taking a couple 3-hour busride to the north to face our state’s only SEC member. I could easily see that school want out of the MSU game for a few reasons which could push their desire to get out of that contract.
Am I predicting that sort of “descheduling” will have an impact on CUSA schedules? Absolutely not, but if your school of choice already has a game on the books with a member of that conference, you may best hope that your AD has done a comparison of their own school versus the others under contract and is working on an alternate game for that date.
Lecture aside, Texas Terror MAY want to make a couple of slight changes to the stem message of this strand to capture the following:
Missouri State Future Non-Con Games Per Season
2027-Arkansas State (which on the surface could provide a logical non-con rivalry)
2028- at Arkansas State
2029- at Missouri
2030- at Tulsa (another logical partner for regional rivalry)
at Wisconsin
(Please note that the Auburn game shown on Texas Terror’s list does not show up on fbsschedules.com. However, I remember some discussion about this
game and must confess to not knowing what which is correct, but both are online.)
2032- at Tulsa
2033- at Missouri
