We already have a game scheduled on the 8th. Not sure I'd want to play back to back top 5 teams anyway.
considering the noles are a top 20 team that will be over-ranked by 15 spots, I'd love to play them, nice warm-up for bama and a win will impress the shit out of...everyone not from arkansas.
I am not claiming I am right, I am saying I don't get it.
I don't care, who we schedule, as long as it makes sense from a competition and/or recruiting basis. We don't need another lame opponent.
We played A$M plus three chumps for n/c games, lost twice, and still finished #5 in the country. We bea LSU, we probably finish #2. We don't have a strength of schedule problem.If Long wants a "name" n/c game, he can quit ducking texas.
Howling and shit has is a rent-a-win for both Oregon and Nebraska.

some teams that have the mutual early date open with us include;boston collegeclemson - plays auburn 1st weekGa techMiami (fl)cincinnatirutgershoustonPittnebraska (plays stAte the week before)OklahomaOkie liteiowa stateK statetexas techAir Forcehawaiifresno statenevadaUNLVthose to start with. possible decent matchups. nothing that is earth shattering. these are all 9/22 open dates. If I were a betting man, to me it would be more advantageous to play this week & be off on the other open date since it's close to middle of the football season. 10/20 is much better to be off. feel free to discuss in this dead ass period now for football & sports.

I'm assuming that these teams will not schedule anything else until they know the outcome of the WV-Big East lawsuits.
nebraska (plays stAte the week before)
Nebraska was the first team I thought of when we had this problem. Yes it opens up the howling shit but not if we beat them by 21 and they beat sTate by 21.Clemson might be a decent matchup but don't want them if they are projected top 10.Miami would be a great matchup and maybe we could get them back for that drubbing in the 80's.Pitt has Long ties doesn't it?Oklahoma would be a great win but I don't want anything to do with Okie light.Texas Tech might be a good replacement for aTm.Air force might be a great matchup. I would love to see one of the service academies come to F'ville.
Might as well scratch Clemson off that list. They're already playing getting the aMm kicked out of them by 2 SEC teams next season, unless they want to get reacquainted with their SEC roots when we expand to 16 teams.
