Price you pay on the home schedule for taking the game at Michigan. Was going to be some FCS school, so you just hope they bring a few fans...and that we get an easy win!

It further perpetuates that we are a small private Christian school. It hurts attendance, and it hurts recruiting.

Ever since college football expanded to a 12 game schedule and bowl qualification with a 6-6 record many schools added an FCS school to the schedule. I hate it but if it gets us to a bowl and the team provides decent attendance and an easy win I’ll take it. Unfortunately we tend to schedule the best FCS teams and underestimate them.

1. I did not know they had a football team
2. I did not know Houston Baptist existed until now

They might have been 1-10 this season but some of their losses were close

They only played 4 home games and were within one score in 3 of their losses. Only FBS team they played was Texas State and lost 20-11 in San Marcos. Finished last going 0-9 in Southland Conference. I think we can pencil that in as a W

So, an 8-4 or 9-3 record in 2018?

Talk about your all time false choices. Thank you for putting it in such simple terms so I didn't have to waste any more brainpower consuming this nonsense.

Houston Baptist has an ideal sports menu.

Baseball, Basketball, Cross Country/Track, Football, Golf, Soccer, Beach Volleyball, Volleyball.

I wonder if they are working plans to drop baseball and add equestrian.

Baseball. Money loser. Game is a snoozer. I still remember the good old days down at Reverchon watching stangs baseball along with another 30 family and friends. Now soccer and cross country, there you go for cost effective “had to have for title IX” add on sports - ball, shorts and maybe a few cones for soccer and sleeveless shirt and shorts for CC. Equestrian maybe even less - BYOHorse. LOL.
