This is great news! It just keeps getting more and more difficult to wait for the season to kick off.

Life is good!

Good timing for this article. Thanks for the link.

Yea baby

Vanderbilt would be a very nice series.

I'd definitely go to both games of this series if it were to happen. Nashville would be a great trip!!!

From my understanding, West Virginia is trying to focus their OOC to nearby games, considering they are a geographical outlier in the Big XII.

I don't think it would be too crazy to see them on our schedule in the future.

Vandy may wind up a payday game rather than home and home.

Looks like we just signed a H/H with Eastern Michigan for 2014/2015:

solid move, IMO.

It's an FBS team and its a winable game; just what we need for the next couple seasons. Now if we could just sign a home/home with Ga Southern to wrap up our schedules for 13/14...

I think that the EMU games will be just the kind of winnable FBS games that we will need in our first few post-transition years. A little early to worry about their offense, but they run one of those power-running and possession control schemes. Hopefully our defense shores up the run defense by then.

I like the EMU series. I agree it'd be great to see GSU at home this season. Is there any real reason to believe this may happen?

There's no "official" smoke from any media outlet, but currently there's nothing on any other possible replacement. Right now it just seems to make the most sense competitively and financially. It's a game that could easily be on TV (at ODU and at the return to Statesboro). And it'd be a series that the fans and the players could get hyped about.

For the return to Statesboro in 2014 it'd make some sense. They'd have to buy out Duquesne, but I think it'd be a great way to open up their first FBS season. Especially since their new stadium expansion will be done by then.

Looks like GSU does have an opening in in their home schedule in 2015, we could fit in there as well. Would love to see this get worked out so we could finally silence their triple option.

Campbell replacing Charlotte, also @ Vandy in 2014 finishes that season's schedule.

Replacing Campbell with UNC-c is a wash from a competitive standpoint, but a blow from an intrigue stand point.

True, but replacing at UNCC in 2014 with at Vandy is very nice.
