Would be Vermont on Saturday the 3rd and then Manhattan on Friday the 9th to start the year. I suspect Army will be the following week, lines up for when SU normally plays them.

The 24th is probably Army or Hobart, probably best if it's Army. That would put Hobart into a Sat in March like last year unless its earmarked for that Tuesday game on the 19th you have listed. We must have heard something about the 19th opponent to have it listed no?

I think we played someone last year on a Tuesday around that time. I just guessed.

We'll know soon enough (like January).

Im pretty sure we will play Colgate Feb 5th but it sounds like the schedule is still fluid.

Wonder if SU will do what Danowksi likes to do early and play a Fri/Sunday with Vermont and Gate. As it stands now it would be a Sat/Mon.

Interesting to here that Gate maybe added, maybe that's the replacement for the BU game falling apart. Gate was pretty bad last year, hope their at least moderately better. Nyclax is not gonna be a fan of this game, lol.

Woof that would just be like scheduling St Bonnie’s all over again. They were 63 in RPI last year and they have been consistently below par the last couple of years. I’m all for more games on the schedule but that is the type of game that hurts playoff chances more than anything.

Navy on and off the schedule, BU on then off now Colgate. Seems Gait is playing musical chairs with the Patriot League for some reason.

Agreed it wouldn't be my choice for sure, don't need an RPI drain like last year. However, let me play a little devils advocate. Gait originally had Navy scheduled but Navy backed out. We then apparently added BU (or Delaware) and now the BU game has fallen through due to scheduling conflicts. At this point the options to fill that spot are probably pretty slim and I'm not sure scheduling for example Yale at Yale just to not play a cupcake type game would be worth it.

I believe Colgate was on the schedule from the start. I have not heard that a replacement has been found for Boston.

FWIW the schedule came out December 1st last year.

Thanks, did the Colgate info just drop, don't remember you mentioning them previously to this. This schedule gets more confusing every time we get an update, lol.

hearing @ hobart 3/23, but don't take my word for it.

I don't think SU is playing at Hobart again for a while, so I don't know how accurate that is unless Gait and SU changed its position.

 

[Powellfan]

They are looking to replace Boston. Not sure who the opponent will be but Utah was mentioned.

If it is Utah, looks like the game would be in the Dome. Not sure why schools release just part of the schedule, can't they just do it one fell swoop?

Pretty light home schedule to say the least

Yeah I wonder if it's difficult to get teams to go to Utah to play. Maybe they just get whoever they can get for home games?

Monster Jam Sat April 6.

Colgate - Feb 5th

Colgate - Feb 5th

So a Sat-Monday turnaround with Vermont on 2/3. Interesting as usually when this is done early season its a Fri-Sun schedule (Duke special).
