question: how long have FIU and North Texas been on our schedule and who was responsible for their inclusion?

Is it just coincidence that two of our out of conference games are played against teams that largely run a spread offense? Or, is it a well-divised plan to get our guys some ‘practice’ in a game situation where they are allowed to make and correct mistakes (due to the likelihood of winning the game regardless) as a preparation for our return trip to atlanta?
