I think we hang with them in 2021, more than past SFA football teams have.

HBU nearly upset them this past season. I feel like we could actually win this battle in the trenches and control the clock enough to give us a chance as well.
HBU did have a once in a lifetime QB of course, but I think if Trae Self works on his timing on his deep passes this could be interesting.

Hoping we have a Fall schedule by early March.
The SFA secondary returns players that have combined for a career of 21 INTs and 64 BU.
This is an amazing unit for 2021.

Behind a pay wall. Just curious who they are quoting.

Who knows .... if we get a game with UCA or North Alabama I'm fine. Fill in the rest of the blanks with miscellaneous FCS and a D2.

Agree. It would help some with scheduling. The AQ is not a big deal.
We can still make it as an at large bid, and I like our chances at that.
TE:#87 ALLEN ARCLES III 6-4; 245 SR.
G:23;REC:32;YDS:281;TD:2
Has entered the transfer portal.

Sucks because Allen was such a dynamic tight end for us, but he has been pretty injury prone since coming here. I think it would've been wise for him to stick it out in Carthel's system.

Strong slate of games.
I think I saw the other day that the Dixie State game would be on the road. And I'd assume we get Eastern Kentucky at home since we played there last season.

Looking forward to seeing a full schedule.
CONFERENCE RELEASE
The ASUN Conference and Western Athletic Conference have agreed on a one-year Football scheduling alliance for the 2021 fall football season. Presented as the ASUN-WAC Challenge, the agreement will allow for seven institutions--three ASUN members and four WAC members--to be eligible for an automatic qualification into the 2021 NCAA FCS Playoffs.
"The ASUN and WAC are proud to be building opportunities for our student-athletes to compete at the highest level," stated ASUN Commissioner Ted Gumbart. "This partnership provides teams in both leagues a path to an automatic bid and elevates the ASUN and WAC to a new level of competition. We look forward to creating more innovative ways to promote ASUN Football as an NCAA FCS league in 2021 and beyond."
The alliance will feature Central Arkansas, Eastern Kentucky and Jacksonville State from the ASUN Conference and Abilene Christian, Lamar University, Sam Houston and Stephen F. Austin from the WAC. ASUN members Kennesaw State and North Alabama will continue to participate in the Big South Conference for the 2021 season, while WAC members Dixie State and Tarleton will participate in the joint schedule but will not be eligible for the group's AQ due to their status as NCAA Division I reclassifying institutions. WAC member New Mexico State will continue as an FBS Independent. ASUN member Liberty will continue as an FBS Independent. ASUN member Stetson will continue to play in the non-scholarship Pioneer Football League.
The seven schools, known as the AQ7, will play a single round-robin, with each institution having three home contests and three road contests. The home team will be responsible for officials, control media rights and game broadcast inventory. The team with the highest winning percentage among AQ7 games shall receive the automatic qualification to the FCS playoffs. In addition, a trophy will be presented to the conference that has the highest winning percentage against the other conference.

Let this be the last NRG game.
I see it being Tarleton and 1 D2 school. As much as I don't want a D2 school, it's probably gonna happen.

This game as a home/home prime time FCS game would be great. We need to move the date to where we aren't competing with the red river rivalry as well, and maybe we get at least regional TV exposure.
If it was Tarleton, why wouldn't that be in the release with the rest of the WAC/ASUN games?SFA_03 said:

Probably non conference. Looks like we won't be playing all our future conference opponents.
I could also see it being NWST for chief Caddo though.

Dixie State and Tarleton aren't conference games for anyone because they aren't FCS eligible yet. Other than Tarleton, FBS independent NM State, is the only WAC football team we don't have scheduled.SFA_03 said:

Yeah and to be honest, that's a pretty difficult schedule. Especially when you add Texas Tech. If we need another non-conference game I bet it non-D1 just to have an easier game.SFA_03 said:

Furthering my point that I bet it turns out being Tarleton and possibly a D2 school. I would like one of those to be NWST though. That rivalry does need to continue.
