Good schedule

[ASURAMS07]

Solid schedule. Hopefully yall can beat both UNA and UWG this year. And maybe FVSU can beat both VSU and DSU. That would put the SIAC on top.

[Jaimac]

I agree that this is a good schedule.  A good list of non-conference opponents.

Nice......real nice.

[Ram-Fan]

Really good schedule

[MilesBear1]

I'm excited about this year's Schedule and I think that Coach Ruffin and the Administrative staff did an outstanding job in preparing this great competitive schedule. The Community here is very excited and happy to have him here as our Coach. Alot of my neighbors where I live have been asking me about the schedule and I have told them it will be out soon. And they kept asking me who would headline the schedule and I smiled and said that it's going to be a good one. I'm just proud to be a Golden Bear and I look forward to meeting Platinum Sound and Capler at the Shaw Game.

UNA is going to show you the difference between a national championship football program and the SIAC... and Bobby Wallace LOVES running the score up on HBCUs... that one will get UGLY.

[Ramese98]

That is a very good solid D2 Football schedule. Get some quality wins and you will be in the playoffs with that schedule.

[M.R.S.B. RAM]

UNA..... ........ I hope Miles is for real other wise I see a 0-4 start but good luck

  Golden Grizzlies, y'all didn't want NO MOE of Da'House? 

[MilesBear1]

We'll be up for the Challenge y'all this is a new Golden Bear Football team. I'm just glad to see us playing some good out of conference opponents.UNA is the alma mater of three of our Coaches. Coach Ruffin,Coach Travis Carswell,and All-American Ron Mckennon. Not running from Da House Jay T they just wasn't on our schedule this year. But I am happy with this year's schedule.

[Jay_Thomas]

Not running from Da House Jay T they just wasn't on our schedule this year. But I am happy with this year's schedule.

I figured as much but you know Big Brotha gotta give you grief regardless.  Stillman was not on our schedule last season so I am assuming since we aren't playing y'all that the Stillman cats will be on our schedule. 

[MilesBear1]

That's good Hill we welcome the challenge. And I'm sure that Auburn will show you what Div.I Football is all about and too bad y'all missed playing against Cam Newton by two years cause I know that will be real ugly for y'all in the 1st quarter. But I'm happy for y'all going down to play them as a good money game good luck.
