Message: [QUOTE="HRE Otto IV, post: 4273964, member: 5685"] Taking ND into account as well, over a 12 year period we play... 50 games in CNY 12 games in NC 6 games in Boston, FL, VA, WPA 3 games in GA, KY, SC 0-2 games in IN 0-2 games in NYC (should ND move their game to YS or ML) That third opponent would add 3 more games to any of the above totals. 15x in NC would be rough. 9x in FL or VA would be fine. No need for KY or SC to add 3 games. GA makes obvious sense as it brings the state even with the others at 6. OOC if we do not get 1 offs or 2 for 1s, we play 1 P5, and we continue to play FCS schools over that same 12 year period we will play... 28 games in CNY 16 games on the road At the very least we should play Rutgers and Maryland both home and away during that period. It probably makes more sense to play both 4x each. Although it would be nice to also play Penn State and WV. I think the same can be said about Army, Temple, and UConn. It makes sense to play them 4x each. Which would give us... 2 games in CT, EPA, MD, NJ, SNY That leaves 6 road games to be scheduled. IMO we should play those mainly vs OH MAC teams. One could argue for extra games in FL and GA vs G5 schools from those states. But we already play in conference for both. Playing a G5 IMO wouldn't move the needle. Then we have UB and UMass as candidates as well. However it might be best to go ahead and play Army and Temple 6x in those 12 years. So once every 4 years at home and away. Each kid will get a road game during their time on the hill. I think we should do the same with an OH MAC school. So now we have... 3 games in EPA, OH, SNY 2 games in CT, MD, NJ That leaves 1 open spot. I think it would be best to use it for UB. So overall we have... 78 games in CNY 12 games in NC 6 games in Boston, FL, VA, WPA 3 games in EPA, GA, KY, OH, SC, SNY 2 games in CT, MD, NJ 0-2 games in IN 0-2 games in NYC (should ND move their game to YS or ML) 1 game in WNY 3 games at our 3rd ACC "rival" Of our 144 games during those 12 years 103-105 would be in the Northeast (over 70%). Of the 66 road games 25-27 would be in the Northeast. Plus another 6-9 games in VA. So about half of our road games would be Eastern from VA and North. With the OH and KY games we would have 39-42 games North of the Tennessee and North Carolina borders. Less than 40% of our roads games would be Southern.
