Only 1 game against OSU, that seems interesting

I thought the program said we weren't going to play Michigan or Michigan State unless we could do it home and home. So I am surprised to see the Falcons play just one there, unless the plan is for Ohio State to return the favor with a single game in 2016-17.

Per the WCHA twitter- Ohio state at BG just hasn't been scheduled yet.

What a crappy looking schedule. A full month between the exhibition game and the first home game. That month contains the only bye week of the season (I don't count the week before and week of Christmas). That month ends with a Saturday/Sunday series in Alaska, then a Friday/Saturday at home in the same week. Home series during Thanksgiving. 3 home games during Christmas break. 5 of 18 (so far) home games are going to struggle for attendance.

yah, that LSSU home series could be a trap, after getting home from Anchorage on Monday night.
The Tech, @Mankato, Miami, @Alaska, Ferris stretch in Jan./Feb. is rough too.

Not super excited about this either. What's with the trips to new York with no return visits? Better be seeing them coming to BG next year.

Excellent. You know, if we could keep these series going, a three-way Miami/Ohio State/Bowling Green trophy wouldn't be a bad idea.

Miami swept Ohio State last year, so I guess they would be defending the hardware if we had hardware.

What would we name the trophy?

You mean the "Ohio Cup?" That already exists. Has for many, many years.
