UC Bearcats to play football series with UCLA

So much for UC's demotion having a big effect on scheduling. UC now has future home-and-home series with Nebraska, UCLA, Boise, BYU, and Indiana. In addition, we are in the middle of home-and-home series with Miami (FL) and Purdue.

UCLA clearly isn't afraid to play road games against MWC & AAC schools. They have future road games scheduled at UNLV (2015), BYU (2016), Memphis (2017), and SDSU (2020). And it's not because they can't get P5 schools - they have future home games against Oklahoma, Virginia, Texas A&M, Michigan, LSU, and Rutgers.

Did not know that Boise was recognized and a Power School.

The rest look promising though.

UCLA doesn't schedule FCS opponents. The Bruins actually prefer to have fun and competitive schedules - rather than trying to game the system with overly-easy wins and 7 or 8 home games. Kudos to them.

Boise bring lots of eyeballs so they're fairly difficult to schedule. Not counting series that they're in the middle of (UConn, Washington, UL-Lafayette), Boise's future home-and-home series are: Virginia, Washington State, Oregon State, Florida State, Oklahoma State, Michigan State, Troy, Cincinnati, and BYU (x4).

I'm happy to be on that list of schools getting a visit from the Broncos.

You're just padding your schedule. Nice to get a nationally recognized Fluff game.

Was this thread posted over here by mistake? Looks like this us news that AAC people would have an interest in.

Bearcat congrats...P5 schools with national championship aspirations will be looking to schedule you in the future. Enjoy some great road trips and home games.

I'm pretty sure Rutgers signed the UCLA deal prior to getting the BIG invite. We signed several contracts to play P5 schools while TP was still the AD (PSU & daU come to mind). This was during the time frame when he gave the "We will be in the BIG shortly" talk at a private donor function. I'm not saying that signing series to play P5 schools means UC is going to get a call-up. I'm just saying that seemed to happen for us.

I thought I heard something about Pitt/Cincy maybe?

Yeah same here. I heard this rumor a few months back. Sometimes it takes a while to get the paperwork done.

Are you sure your AD isn't confused and that "UC" on UCLA's schedule is actually the school in Berkeley?

I would take that. Easy P5 win and easy road trip for UC fans. (Pitt will probably bring the usual 16 fans).

UCLA, USC, Notre Dame --- the only 3 FBS schools who have never scheduled a FCS.

Good for them.

(until recently, Washington was also part of this group)
