Thank you sir!

Which home field are you referring to? Hopefully not Doc's NYC home field.Home and home with Michigan!

Yup, no question SU was in a tight bind, as were all the schools in the Big East. However, I believe SU was the last or next to last to schedule the 12th game and lost some
possible opportunities to solve the problem in a more equitable way.
Rutgers for example, was able to fill the WVU hole with an away game at Arkansas, which is the same thing SU did, except the Scarlet Knights were able to schedule a 2012-13 home and home series with the Razorbacks instead of a single away game.
As someone wise once said, the early bird gets the home and home.
Okay, no one ever said that.
My frustration is that SU has a recent history of being very slow to react to issues with the football schedule. I am not seeing any signs of changes in this behavior recently. Would love to see some attractive OOC games for the next couple of years announced soon.
Well most people on this board have no interest in playing the Ack so I think your in the minority
we need to look to other private Universities with around the same size stadiums. Vanderbilt would be someone I would really like to see in the future. Wouldn't mind seeing Northwestern again either. Fitzgerald is a great coach, they should be very good this season and they are killing it on the recruiting trail this year. Other similar schools who could be interested.
Vanderbilt
Northwestern
Stanford
Cal
BYU
Baylor
TCU
I would serve as Provo tour guide to everyone.BYU only has 11 games scheduled for 2014. They have 6 home games and 5 road games. Get them to come to the dome in 2014, and we'll travel there in 2015.
Ditto. I'd love to schedule all the private schools.
And B10, just in case we need a new home some day.
USF and UCF would be okay, but not needed so much with FSU and Miami.
We can play away games at Mizz for the next decade if the outcome is the same. Damn, that felt good.
Arizona St. for selfish reasons please. Plus you fans can come see some of the hottest women in the country!
No offense to those who have suggested teams out west, but I hope we never travel more than a time zone away for a game again.

Now that's being selfish...No offense to those who have suggested teams out west, but I hope we never travel more than a time zone away for a game again.

Of course Grotto the grotto likes this post. It would be in his backyard. Personally, I don't see BYU as having. Much upside in scheduling for us. If we are going to go that far west, play someone in an area where we have more potential to recruit, or alumni -- Houston, or Dallas, or California, or such. I think we could pretty easily keep our games east of the Mississippi though.
Don't disagree but BYU might be easy to visit Cuse as they would have a desire to make a pilgrimage to Palmyra while here and they do have a national brand
