Oh come on...we play mighty Appy State this year. What more do you want?
Appalachian State is a better program right now than two-thirds of the teams on that list.
But, hey, let's not forget Tennessee Tech later this year.
When I become president, I'm making it a law that: a.) No FCS teams are on the schedule, b.) There are nine conference games on the schedule, and c.) At least one of the remaining three non-conference games must be against a Power 5 program.
Love them or hate them, one thing I admire about Notre Dame football is that program's willingness to load up the schedule.
