W0 Rocky Mountain (NAIA) vs. Mary (NSIC)

West Florida released their 2026 schedule: https://goargos.com/sports/football/schedule

Looks like they are keeping the Northeastern State game on 10/10 and the West Alabama game on 10/17.

Update on the NE State Website: https://goriverhawksgo.com/sports/football/schedule

They have added a place holder on Oct 31 with a TBA road game at 2pm.

EDIT: The only opponent that would make sense here is Frostburg State.

W1 Lackawanna (PSAC) at Monroe (IND)

[ESU Warrior]

W1 Lackawanna (PSAC) at Monroe (IND)

Monroe will also be playing D3 Keystone college this fall. I don't have a date yet.

W0: Frostburg State, Assumption, Bentley, Franklin Pierce, Pace, Saint Anselm, Southern Connecticut, Mars Hill, Ohio Dominican.

W2: Franklin Pierce, Pace, Southern Connecticut, Monroe, Ohio Dominican.

W6: Assumption, Bentley, Pace, Post, Saint Anselm, Lincoln-Mo., Delta State
W7: Monroe, Valdosta State, Delta State
W9: Frostburg State, Northeastern State, Monroe, Delta State

Thanks for the tip. Looks like d3football.com has them playing a home-and-home-- at Keystone 10/31 and at Monroe 11/14

I believe I seen on HUDL That The O-31 Game for Northeastern State will be at NAIA Langston.
Week 0 Game for Ohio Dominican is at FCS Morehead State.
Week 2 Pace Hosts Monroe

Didn't even think to check HUDL. Great find!

That means Northeastern State would still need a waiver to be eligible for the playoffs.

Man thats not what I expected. They need to look into dropping that West Florida game and see if Valdosta State is available. Hard to believe they would risk losing out on the playoffs given the success on what they did last year.

I'm presuming that Ohio Dominican will still be playing Edinboro in Week 1...
