I can't believe there's no buzz about adding Army to the schedule. I like that we don't have to return the game until 2031. A lot could happen between now and then. Football Adds Army To 2020 Slate

Re: Army, normally they'd bring some cadets with them and add some environment to the game but this year they probably won't bring them at all. Not much anyone can do about that.Brent Wyrick

After having watched the shutdown Freeman and Fickell put on Navy at Nippert the second time around, i like our chances against a run only team at home. There's always the injury bugaboo, but i've seen others contest that guys are just as likely to get hurt in other offenses as well. This defense should matchup well against any run dominated team. I'm just glad we got another game.

With the game being cancelled, it's been a slow day. I thought I would throw out something for conversation. I know the UC-Miami rivalry is currently scheduled through 2029, but since it was cancelled this year by the MAC not playing games do we have an out . Now that the rivalry has been disrupted, it seems like a good time to review the importance of the game. Until we get into a power conference we are going to struggle with our strength of schedule. I think we would be better served to schedule power 5 schools for this slot. I hate to disrupt rivalries, but at some point the rivalry doesn't serve you any more. We've won 14 in a row, but the win doesn't give us anything. A loss, however, would be huge and with a rivalry you are more susceptible to a loss.

At the same time, you are right. A loss would do severe damage to us for that year. I think the big problem would be with your suggestion on who you replace them with. Frankly, I don't think many P5 schools want to schedule us out of conference. They also would have a lot to lose, and unlike Miami right now, we could definitely beat a lot of those schools.

You don't give up on Miami, you give up the Austin iPeay's and the dirrectional schools! Miami is tradition worth protecting. All the big schools have a MAC team on their schedule to open their season, we should too. Its the other cupcakes we have to get rid of. A schedule with AAC teams, 1 MAC team, and perhaps 1 Big Ten team is strong enough to accomplish our objectives.
