That looks like a home game and two games in Vegas. That's great. I believe all 3 games count as 1 even though one of the games is at home. In 2010, we played in a format like that but were one of the visitors. We have moved up in the world. We played at Gonzaga in the non-bracketed portion of the preseason NIT

Definitely don't want a game November 7th. Gotta have a bye somewhere as not to beat up your team.
I know they thought they had an agreement in place for September 5th, but they may have pulled out as well. Wouldn't be the first to do so. Hope they're able to maneuver something, but if we do I'd put money on it being a FCS team.
I like the conference schedule though, and at Cal and at PS is a tough NC schedule alone. Need another easy one to start and work out the kinks before Cal. Cal could be the most improved team in PAC 12.
Based on this schedule I'd love to see 8-3 or better, most likely heading to Boise.

Looks like a league schedule that works in our favor. If we are as good this coming year as many have predicted this schedule gives us the tougher MWC teams at home and a couple of big name schools that we should be able to compete with. We could be favored in every MWC game. Many think CSU will not be nearly as good this season. They lose their coach and a big senior class. The most important thing CSU loses is Grayson. He put up unbelievable numbers. He was 10th in the nation in the fewest number of ints thrown per attempt. Plus their defense was not very good at all ranking 82nd in YPP which was almost a full yard worse than us. They had very lucky wins vs Utah St, UNR, SJSU, and BC and an unlucky loss to AFA. Breaking in a new HC and QB will not help them either. I'm not too concerned about them at this point.

Truly, our leadership of our football program is so feeble and forlorn. Everything about it is hangdog and devoid of passion and drive.

I was/am really looking forward to FB but, looking at the schedule I'm less excited and a little disappointed. Opening on the road at Cal without a tuneup game sucks. Having 5 home games and who they are against doesn't bode well for any attendance records, especially if we stumble at Cal and then who knows at Penn St. After that I assume Sky Show is against So. Al. then not much chance of things picking up. Aside from maybe Fresno St the rest are pretty unexciting, Wyo, Utah St and Nev? Thank god we aren't playing at home on Halloween! We could/should have 7 home games to make up for playing at UH. In a year where we really need to step up, win and represent this is not a reality unless we beat Cal and or Penn St. This is as BIG a season as we've had in a long time. Still can't wait till FB! Go Aztecs!

Prediction 7-4 with losses at Cal, Penn St., CSU and one you wouldn't expect to lose, probably USU. Hopefully they can add a patsy for the 12th game. Don't count on USU being a pushover, or not too good in 2015 because Chuckie is coming back for one more season at QB due to injury.

Not a great home slate. Tough to get to 40,000 people in the building when you won't have a ranked opponent. Unless of course SDSU is ranked.

Well, we'd have to go on the road to beat Cal & PSU to get there. I mean, that'd be awesome and I'd be super excited. But I'm only allowing myself to hope that we can split them.

Traveling to the east coast to play Penn State will be a challenge. Keep your fingers crossed!

Truly, our leadership of our football program is so feeble and forlorn. Everything about it is hangdog and devoid of passion and drive. Nobody I've read or heard knows less, understands less and is more consistently wrong about Aztec football than YOU. I wonder if you have ever seen a game in person, listened to the coaches personally, been around the players. They are all about passion, but you are low information so that is where you come from and nothing would change your mind.

A sixth is still in the offing, but not for sure. Again, virtually every team in FBS/FCS is booked Sept. 5. It will take some horse trading to get the date filled, but I still think it will happen.

My opinion about them strengthens, the more vociferous your invective grows. With them having boosters such as you, my assertion about their lack of ability to change our fate, is verified. Thank you.

SMH... Ive heard Navy is looking to add a 12th game to their 2015 FB schedule and possibly move down their home opening game vs Colgate. But Rocky is going Roberto Duran on us, "No más, no más."
