Has it been released yet? If so, I am not having any luck finding it.

conf schedule same as last season except with home and away reversed. Pretty easy to figure out.

Nonconference (in order, I believe):
Texas State
@ Texas Tech
@ Navy
TCU

no Arkansas State? I heard we had to go there again this year from somewhere?

That's a tough 3 game stretch with road games at Tech and Navy then at home to the Frogs. It would be nice if we could get out of the first four games at 2-2. 3-1 is probably asking too much. 4-0 and we need to break ground on the June Jones statue in front of Dallas Hall.

And I thought Tech was first. I think Navy is October 25th.

**EDIT** I do agree now that TSU is the first game. I recall thinking that hopefully we will open the season with a win instead of our normal beating at the hands of TT to start the year.

According to this, we have a 2-for-1 with Navy. Two there and one here. That's ridiculous. Can anyone shed light if this was really a four-year series?

BTW, you can count on CSTV being all over that game.

We agreed the 2-1 with Navy because in all honesty...they were doing us a favor by scheduling us. We aren't exactly a major prize on anyone's schedule at the moment.

Besides we did get to play them at home in 2002 so it would be even for the decade.

Do we play UAB next year in Birmingham? Thanks

Our home game vs. Texas State is the season opener as far as I have seen.

During the 2008 season I think there will be enjoyable road trips to:

New Orleans / Tulane

Annapolis / Navy

Orlando-Disney World / University of Central Florida

I will be at Annapolis. A great destination and the USNA is spectacular. Good flights to Baltimore, BTW, where SWA is prominent.
