2018 Football Schedule?

Unread post by Rick83 » Thu Jan 04, 2018 8:50 am

Has this been released yet? We're making travel plans for the year and I really need to know the schedule so we can plan around games. I see the 4 non-conference games in Sept. but really need the others. Does anyone know when it'll be released? I can't slow-roll my wife's trip planning indefinitely.

As has been the case the past few years I believe it is the beginning of March. We will only have one bye this year.

Interesting to see how the bye week works for teams that play on Wednesdays.

Usually, the team has off the week before they play on Wednesday. The Sun Belt has had two Wednesday games.

I can see the Troy, stAte and GaSo games on weekdays this season.

The magic date is March 1

I just hope to contain the home mid-week games to one.

I fully expect a minimum of two mid-week games. I think GA St. has a better chance at being mid-week than GS this year.

While I understand booking FCS teams at home, I'd rather we stop that practice all together. I look forward to the Penn State, Troy, & ArkState games.

No FCS games = no Penn State (or UGA/Tennessee/etc.)

At least if we're playing an FCS, this year's is an in-state school.

I remember playing at G-W in 2006. The sun was in the away side's eyes the entire first half. Peacock got lifted to the top of the cheerleader pyramid and waived a flag. Imagine Everts doing that.

Except App had an all FBS schedule last year with UTk. I prefer an all FBS schedule if DG can maintain 6 home games even though I wouldn't be that upset if every few years App only had 5 home games assuming 2-3 of the away games are within close proximity (ie. WF, NCSU, UNCC, ECU, Duke, UVA, VT, Marsha, MTSU, UScar, GT etc...).

I feel if App ever wants to make a serious run at NY6 bowl, it will take several stars aligning along with an all FBS schedule with most likely 2 OOC games coming against the autonomous conferences. Those 2 games will most likely be away games if they are against true "power" teams.

We have a solid conference schedule next year. If ULL and Southern were not in the dumps it would be brutal. Really excited for the opportunity to play in a conference championship game in 2018. How does division cross over work? In other words who will drop off the schedule in 2019.

I was at that game also and went with a G-W graduate friend. He was stunned at the amount of people we had there and it started with the sea of App flags at the tailgating lot.

Thanks. I'm afraid my wife is going to want to book some travel for the Fall way before early March...going to have to come up with a plan.

You could just plan a Labor Day weekend trip up north and just happen to be near Happy Valley on September 1st.

I hear the Catskills are nice that time of year...

Most of the games we schedule with Power 5 Conference teams aren't home-and-homes. (Miami and Wake Forest are the exceptions, and more are coming). To balance the slate, we must schedule a team that is willing to come to Kidd Brewer without a reciprocal "home-and-home" agreement. Those are almost universally FCS programs.
