Weekly Friday game updates:

W0 Mars Hill at Delta State
W0 West Texas A&M at Western Colorado
W1 Lincoln (CA) at TAMUK
W1 Lincoln (PA) at Duquesne
W1 Southern Oregon at Western Oregon
W1 Thomas More at Dayton
W1 Western Colorado at Midwestern State
W2 Bowie State at Delaware State
W2 Delta State at UNC Pembroke
W2 TAMUK @ NW Missouri
W2 Tiffin at Ferris State
W2 West Liberty at Robert Morris
W4 Delta State at Erskine
W6 Southern Connecticut at Delaware State

Almost every SR4 team has their non-conference schedule released/known by now, which is pretty impressive considering it's still only February and there are some conferences that still have yet to have any of their members release a single schedule

Yep. Only unknows left in SR4 are Central Washington, Western Oregon, Colorado Mesa, and Central Missouri with 1 game each left to fill.

Western will host West Texas A&M week one, and head to Wichita Falls to face MSU week 2. Just an inverse of last year's nonconference.

I figured that was the likely scenario. Thanks for the clarification.

In related news, Lincoln U still exists…

Yeah if you want to get the fans excited that you supposedly have an invincible kick a$$ team, then this is the "opponent" to schedule.

Could I ask where you heard that? I don't doubt you have good sources, I just haven't been able to find anything official from either school on it

Saw it mentioned on this board..I thought on the GSC forum. Nothing official from either school that I’ve seen.

Heard/saw LRU vs West Fla for week 0. Fresh matchup of top 25 type programs. That one move up the ladder pretty high..top 5 maybe.

Dump of all the new games I've added since this post went up:

W0 Adams State at Western New Mexico
W0 Fort Valley State vs. West Alabama
W0 UIndy at Marian
W0 Upper Iowa at Drake
W0 Tusculum at Bluefield State
W0 Virginia State at Barton
W1 Bowie State at Shippensburg

W1 Virginia State at Norfolk State
W1 West Florida at Kentucky Wesleyan
W1 North Greenville at Delta State
W2 Kentucky Wesleyan at William Jewell
W2 Michigan Tech at Hillsdale
W3 Delta State at Fort Valley State
W3 Upper Iowa at Michigan Tech

I'll probably continue making big weekly mega posts like these for a few more weeks so that I'm not cluttering this thread with an update post for every new game I hear of.

I don't have nearly as much free time as I'd like to pour over schedule releases and research myself either, especially with how many schools still have yet to release their schedules; I'll probably only be able to really sit down and do that maybe once a week. If you guys find anything though, just let me know and I'll update the post as I hear of them

As of last Friday Shippensburg was set to play Lincoln (PA) per their website....obviously something changed as today it states Bowie State....As per the Michigan Tech/UW-Oshkosh game...It was brought up in a Twitter comment by someone close to the AD....may not be true!

Looks like the CIAA's schedules will have a St. Augustine's-shaped hole again.

Thanks for the tips, I missed a bunch of those. I saw the Tuskegee-Alabama State one, but I intentionally left it off since it's well after the regular season.

Can I ask where you found Lincoln @ Ship and UW Oshkosh @ MTU? I've heard conflicting reports on the first game (Ship has a game listed against Bowie State instead), and I can't find anything online about the second game

Either Ship got it wrong or Lincoln backed out, because I saw the schedule last week and I'm pretty sure it was Lincoln-PA, not Bowie State.
