Granted, it's been listed in this form under the "Future Schedules" for a while now. But here it is, official. Hopefully we can beat our NEC opponent this year :bang: and continue our historical dominance against UMass, although that'll be much tougher with them as the first game again in 2006.

Nice start out of the box. Win the opener and you'll be able to build up some good 'mo' for a few weeks before the 'gauntlet' begins...

God how opening Colgate games scare me! But there is no good reason why we can't start the bulk of the PL schedule at 6-1 at least!

Nice to see so many home games. I remember when we were getting two a year. Did Monmouth replace Columbia?

When does Georgia Southern show up on the slate? 2007?

Good schedule indeed. Monmouth and the NEC will no longer be that auto-W for everyone.

Lafayette starts at Bucknell. We will know where we stand in week one. And who knows, we might have Colgate in our heads by week one if we don't beat the Bison.

Lafayette starts at Bucknell.

And this is NOT the opener for Bucknell. Is this a horror story waiting to unfold?!?

In any event, my crystal ball reveals that both Lehigh and Colgate will have identical 10 - 1 records and will lose to the same team. Only one of them will get an at-large bid to the playoffs. Remember where you heard it first.

Correcting myself here... I think I meant to say Furman instead of Georgia Southern.

Yes. And it's actually a better schedule because of it!

As for the NEC, we know FIRST HAND that they are not an auto W! We're still looking for our first program win against an NEC school.
