For those who haven't seen it, this is a good site to track our upcoming non-conference opponents:

ND is currently booked through 2019. Upcoming series include:
Army ('13 and '14)
Northwester ('15-'16, '19-'22, why do we play them 6 times during the next 10 years?)
Rice ('16-'17, should make for some fun half time shows with two scatter bands on the field)
UVA ('17-'18)

We only have SJSU on the schedule next season, though I won't be shocked if we re-up for convenience.

OutsiderFan, I've never heard that explanation. I don't see why it would be a scheduling necessity to have one "rivarly game" have to play early in the year.
