Future Football Schedules

[ST_Lawson]

To make things easier for people, I think it'd be good to go ahead and have future football schedules posted, as far as we know this at this point. I'll sticky this too, so it's easier to find and reference when necessary. For those unfamiliar with current MVFC scheduling, each pair of two years there is one pair of teams that don't play each other. In '12/'13 it was North Dakota State, '14/'15 it was Missouri State, '16/'17 was Youngstown State, and '18/'19 was South Dakota State. As of 2020, North Dakota will be joining the conference and each team in the MVFC will skip playing two teams each year. Probably that will be the same for a 2-year span, but I don't know enough about the 2021 schedule yet to know for sure. At this point, it looks like we will not be playing North Dakota State or Missouri State in 2020 and 2021.

Need to get Drake on the Sched.

We did play Drake last year (Sept 13, 2014) in Macomb.

Western won 38-13.

Any pioneer league would be good...we've played Valparaiso, Drake, Butler, Jacksonville in recent years...hey maybe Dayton wants a rematch?
