I think all of our conference games will start in October since we have an open week right now after Clemson and before ODU which could be the bye week

Flip side of that coin is that we would only have one home game in September. I imagine App would prefer to play at home that week than have a bye.

If I'm making the schedule for 6-10 months down the road, I'm going to do the smart thing, play the odds, and try to schedule the teams against each other I believe will be in contention late into the season. If we don't get GS late in the season, then there is not reason not to atleast get Ark State, ULL or maybe both in late Oct or Nov.
Given that those are three of our four SBC home games, it's certain that at least one will fall late in the season. And any of those three games could easily factor into the conference title race, or even decide it.

Troy announced they're revealing their schedule at 11 am ET Friday, which means that's when the Sun Belt schedule is coming out at the same time. Looks like the AD's got it done quickly.

Balancing preset OOC games with an exact mirror image of the 2014 season is probably one of their easier tasks.

I am more excited about this upcoming season than any in recent memory. The best home schedule by far. I just hope App fans" expectations as well as my on aren't too high and we are disappointed. I would love a SunBelt Conference Championship but if I get to attend a post season bowl game I will be elated. GO MOUNTAINEERS!!!

There's one less weekend to play games this year. Technically we had three byes last year (including the final week). There will be only two this year, but I expect the league to play a slate of games on December 5th as every other league will have a conference title game so the number of overall games will be limited.

We should play on that day anyway...there are fewer games to compete with in regards to TV slots, and the Thanksgiving holiday doesn't interfere.

By my count we have two games on 5 days of rest, that doesn't sound good for us

I am stoked for the two Thursday games, especially the opponents. Awesome. Good job Sun Belt. Go Apps!
