I thought they would have realized that the Parade O' Cupcakes idea was kind of lame last year....but I guess not.
Its an exhibition. Our ooc schedule is very good as it stands right now, regardless of who the cupcakes are.
considering the youth and relative question marks about rotation/ playing time, I think a visit to the bakery this fall is appropriate. Give the new guys a chance to gel.
I'm not complaining about the schedule...just the method in which they choose to unveil it.

Masters of suspense, they are. That St. John's (MN) announcement blew my mind away. Who's next? I can't wait until tomorrow. The anticipation is killing me.... must.... donate.... more..... to.... Blue & Gold...... fund.
I appreciate this game the Al
Teams from the 60s and 70s would always play SJ-MN yearly.
A return to tradition!
Do we have a closed door scrimmage with a high level D1 school this year?
I thought Tony Bennett was returning the favor and bringing UVa here this year, but I haven't seen anything about it recently.

Will it be Centenary? Maybe about Thursday they will reveal that we are playing UWGB or Bucknell? The suspense!!!
Buzz said the closed door scrimage last year in Charlottesville, Virginia cost some bucks to pull off. I hae no problem with St. John's of Minnesota just so it isn't a home and home deal. ;)
Pick on it or not, this is way better than waiting untill Labor Day weekend fo the schedule.
I think they do it to get more traffic on the web-site, by putting one team out every day.
