This should be the last year of filling in the Hofstra slot, so moving forward our schedule should get better.
I like what I see for 2012. The 'Cuse and Army games are your typical FBS games. They are big names, look great on paper, aren't exactly great teams, but should beat us. If we can keep it close it's awesome. If we can sneak a win, thats spectacular.
Colgate, Pace, and CCSU are very winnable games, and the conference schedule is standard.
That gives us 9 very winnable games out of 11. Given everything, I still believe that to get in the playoffs we either need to win the conference, or if we lose a game in conference, we'd need to beat one of the FBS teams to get an at-large berth. Going to be another fun year!
