Glad to see Bryant showing up on a few schedules of FCS programs. Those will be good rivalries down the road...

NCCU, NDSU and Delaware State are great tests for CCSU!

Great schedule!

Nice schedule!
Western Michigan last year and now NDSU! You have to hand it to the top teams in the NEC, they are stepping things up seriously!

And yet, they have not been able to defeat the top team in the PFL in the Gridiron Classic the last two years....

with CCSU also scheduling Bryant does this add more to the fact that UAlbany may have other plans if we do not see a Bryant game being scheduled?

Bryant is definitely not on our schedule this year. Our OOC is at Hofstra, at UNH, at UMASS, at Delaware, and home vs. Fordham.

Probably one of the best OOC's in the country.

No, not really. Bryant is not a conference team yet, when they join you will play UA.

UA is continuing to really challenge themselves in OOC play. It is very impressive.

I think AQ status has more bearing on UA's long-term NEC plans. If the NEC gets the AQ in 2010, I think UA resigns a commitment to the NEC (which they could always break if the CAA splits).

I think UA wants access to the playoffs and would be content in the NEC until an opportunity arises with UNH and Maine, etc.
