What Im saying is schedules are set years in advance. And sometimes when you have coaching changes and there might be still an open date left to fill as you get closer to that year, it might not be possible (in SAC's case) to fill it with another D-I opponent (which happened this year because Sears never filled our opening date for 2019 early). You can only play the schedule you have. And we were in our two FBS games well into the 4th quarter this year. And the conference also put EWU, MSU and UM all in a row for us to open league play. Looking at historical records with those three programs, that was a daunting task on paper. Yet look what we did. No one has beaten those three programs, and by major whippings, in three straight weeks since the conference alignment after BSU, UI and even NEV left in the 1990's.
