Third & Long: Extra week adds twist to I-AA schedules
By Tony Moss, The Sports Network

Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - Who said 13 is an unlucky number?

This year and in 2003, college football fans will be graced with a 13th weekend of regular season gridiron play, as a result of what can best be described as a delightful calendar intricacy. Division I-A and I-AA teams are permitted to play 12 contests this season and next, and many have exercised that option.

Below, we rate a number of the non-conference schedules in I-AA, with a list of the 10 toughest, 10 lightest, and 30 notable games against the soon-to-fluctuate grouping known as I-A. A conference-by-conference "thumbs up" and "thumbs down" evaluation follows the Top 10 lists. If you don?t see your team in that section, we didn?t forget you. That simply indicates that the non-conference schedule in question was nothing to cheer or jeer about.


10 Toughest

1. McNeese State (Nebraska, Louisiana-Monroe, Western Kentucky, Youngstown State, Grambling State)...When you factor in the quality of play in the rugged Southland, there are probably two dozen I-A schedules easier than McNeese?s.

4. Florida A&M (Miami (FL), Troy State, Tennessee State, Morris Brown)?Rattlers should beat up on their conference, provided Hurricanes don?t pummel them too much in the season-opener.


10 Lightest

1. Maine (Central Connecticut State, Howard, Florida International)...Excuses about geography and a difficult conference don?t get the Black Bears off the hook. Three blowouts to ensue, with few impressed.

2. Bethune-Cookman (Florida Atlantic, Florida International, Morris Brown, Savannah State)...No risk, and once again for the Wildcats, likely no reward.

3. Bucknell (Cornell, St. Mary?s (CA), Duquesne)...Ten games in a season when the NCAA allows 12, and not a single non-conference opponent to boast about.

4. Alabama State (Chattanooga, Tuskegee, Morris Brown, Savannah State, Miles)...Just when the Hornets had started to build something in their state, they loaded up with cupcakes. Not a good trend. :eek2: :eek2: :eek2: :eek2: :bawling: :bawling: :bawling: :bawling: :emlaugh: :emlaugh: :emlaugh: :emlaugh: :emlaugh: :emlaugh: :emlaugh:


How could I ever had miss this???!!!!!

:lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:
 



There's more!!!

SWAC

Thumbs Up Southern...An upwardly mobile slate for the Jaguars, who play I-A Tulane and a pair of Southland foes in Northwestern State and Nicholls State.

Jackson State...Three quality non-conference opponents for the Tigers, who take on I-A Southern Miss, North Carolina A&T, and Tennessee State.

Thumbs Down Alabama State...Is this a schedule befitting the SWAC East champs? Miles, Morris Brown, Savannah State, Tuskegee, and Chattanooga. The Mocs, who finished 2-9 last year, are the best of the five. :eek2: :eek2: :eek2: :eek2: Now that?s lame.

Arkansas-Pine Bluff...Can the Golden Lions spell I-AA? Their only opponents outside the SWAC are Kentucky State and Lane.

If you wait, you'll probably be 90 by the time he gives you a viable answer. Plus, he'll probably say something like "You didn't have the chunks to post this BEFORE the schedule was official."

Typical MH ..... console Nichols for me, okay? I know he and that second baseman are crying with embarrassment.

.......Yeah, and four(4) of the 12 teams had a combined 2001 record of 14 wins/ 28 losses


(Miles 4-7; UTC 3-8; MoBrown 5-6; Sav.St. 2-7)

Well, seems to be that you cant explain the first one. How about this one? It seems just alittle easier than the last.

Explain yourself, MH.
 



Beanszie,
You just insist on making an arse outta yourself everyday.
:smh:

This time last year, the jsue goons were harping on and on about ASU's schedule. And then came October!!!!!!

A year later, you jsue goons harping on and on about ASU's schedule AGAIN. Keep it up. October is coming AGAIN!!!!!!
 
mh

Is your response to everything at your wac school, "yall still got jw"? What do we have to do with an independent article that says your schedule is filled with a bunch of panzies.

I said it a long time ago, your school is a coward. I said the other day that you are paying a coach 130K to beat Miles and MoB. hell JW could do that. I wish JSU had that schedule, then we would go 12-0 and then we would be undefeated and then i would be on here bragg.....wait a minute, Im from JSU...I have pride. Nevermind those statements.

COWARDS

Please respond with JSU score...or something else real lame.

Sissy ass schedule. You should change your colors to pink and white and have a picture of a teddy bear with a bow on your helmet. Im ashamed that you are in the SWAC.

LC Coles

Little COWARD Coles
 
Get Ready, You see, they would look real dumb to anyone to pay a coach 130K to have a losing season, so they are really using thier heads. Now they only look dumb to people that know football. To everyone else, it just looks like they are a winner now. And remember, having a winning season (over .500) is a big deal at some schools (2 of which are located in Alabama)
 
Lewis...thats why you are in charge of media relations. You are the only one that can see that....only the positive, only the positive.

Attention: Mafia Flunkies,

Your leader GR has commanded yall to jump, so do like yall normally do and follow orders.
Kudos to hbcus for getting an early jump.
:rolleyes:
 
Hey GR,
For the umpteenth time, ASU's nonconference schedule won't help sorry arse jsue one bit in Mobile.
We gon whoop your arse AGAIN !!!!!

You know, it was raining like crazy here on Saturday. Ole mh was sitting round the house and reading some old topics on TSPN. It's sooooo funny because this time last year, the jsue clan was talking bout ASU's schedule. I saw some threads from the summer where the jsue clan was still talking bout ASU's schedule. On into the fall and the jsue clan was still talking bout ASU's schedule. After the J.C. Smith massacre (sup noisy c.), the jsue clan was still talking bout ASU's schedule. But, a week later, we went for 61 on that awful ass team of yours. And the jsue clan no longer talked so much. :(
And GR, for some strange reason, I can't find where you talked at all on TSPN after that game. :confused: For 2 weeks, you were soooooo quiet, but I figure you were on vacation or something, right? :rolleyes:

Oh well, it's spring now so keep right on talking bruh. It's expected!

But I'm shole gon miss you during your 2 week vacation after you get back from Mobile. :(
 
I finally figured out L.C.'s strategy!!!!!!!! While our players are playin tough games and going up against heavy oppositions, LC and his bunch of panties are basically painting their toe-nails until they play us or some real competition. So MH, do you think that we will be worn down by the time we face you and that that will help out your "little fairies"?


I dont think so!!!!!!!


Hey MH, I think that you all should change your mascot. How about one of these?
