Falcons vs. Hoosiers

Post by SB-50 »

Have we talked about this??

http://iuhoosiers.cstv.com/sports/m-foo ... 10aaa.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

"In future years, Indiana has signed on to play a series against Missouri (2013 and 2014) of the Big 12 and perennial MAC title contender Bowling Green (2013, 2014 and 2017). IU has also reached a home-and-home agreement to play Wake Forest in 2015 and 2016."

I wonder if our 3 games are a 2-for-1??

It's been mentioned here and there, though I don't remember anything quite that concrete.

I bet it is a 2-for-1. For some reason, I thought I had initially heard of it as a home-and-home.

Since IU is playing in BOWLING GREEN, KY. soon, I'd think at least one of those games will be in BOWLING GREEN, O. 8-)

I love the sounds of this! There was some talk by GC about this before. I was under the impression of it being a possible home-&-home at one point, but I will certainly take a 2-for-1 with Indiana. My guess is we'll be away in 20013 & 2017 and hosting in 2014. I was at IU last summer and was very impressed with heart of campus. IMO, it is one of the most beautiful parts of a college campus I have seen and I've been to many of them. The renovations to the football stadium were also very, very nice. I'm looking forward to this series.
GO BG!!!

Geez, I guess it basically is a one and one then isn't it? Not sure about you, 33, but I don't expect to be alive, nor any of my great grandchildren's great grandchildren in 20013.

I'm hearing Ball State signed a home and home with Indiana recently. Wonder why they got a home and home and BG only a 2 for 1? Perhaps because BSU and IU are in the same state???

I thought it was a one and one as well. I remember hearing about it a couple times.

Most likely...and I think they have played each other quite a few times in the past as well, so there is sort of a history there.
