I posted this on bengals.bigskyfans.com but felt compelled to post here on the Ol' Blog.
August
What to look for: The end of summer and sleeping in, the start of classes, and a soccer team that's height/size deprived.
The Bengal Faithful get 2 soccer matches this month, one on Tuesday 18th against Northwest Nazarene (11AM at Davis Field) and the first ever meeting with the Lobster-Lovers from Maine (Sunday the 30th, 1PM at Davis). These two games are great previews of the smaller, faster quark-women that will probably dominate the soccer field (I believe we won't have the players of Okamura's and Quigley's size this year, as Noelle Sanders and Michelle Harrison left)
September
What to look for: Anybody. Rugby is the only team home every other weekend. Oh and football is home the 26th after some tomfoolery by 550 Memorial Drive that sends us to ASU, Oklahoma AND Weber State on the road with no bye week this season. Look for signs of the Soccer and Volleyball teams, they're here somewhere.
September is where things start getting going for the Bengal Faithful (even if there were plenty of games last year this month). There are rugby matches against Utah and the North/South Game (both at Bartz Field at 1:00 PM; Utah on the 12th and the N/S Game on the 19th). Soccer gets only 1 home game against Utah Valley on Wednesday the 23rd (4:00PM at Davis). Volleyball gets their first home matches on the 25th (Friday) and 26th (Saturday) against EWU and PSU; both at 7:00PM in Reed Gym. Football is very absent this month with only 1 home game against Central Washington (many, including me, have said this is a trap game); kickoff at 3:30 on the 26th. Be sure to catch both the Volleyball game and the Football game on the 26th!
October
What to look for: Soccer's Atomic Reactor impersonation (little things flying all over the place), Volleyball's defiant defense of the home court and hopeful gradual improvement into a Big Sky Contender, and Football lives or dies here. Look for the 2 million rugby matches at Bartz Field too. Also, though it's hard to find, look for ASISU to hopefully schedule Homecoming the week of the 12th-17th.
Typically the month of fun for the Bengal Fan. Has Halloween, plenty of football and in general LOTS of games! Rugby will be home all month with all matches starting at 1:00PM at Bartz Field. The breakdown of the opponents is as follows: Weber (3rd), Utah State (10th), Boise State (17th), Montana (24th), and Snow College (Halloween). Football will also be home twice against EWU (the 3rd, kickoff at 3:30) and Northern Colorado (the 17th, kickoff at 3:30). Soccer has matches with Montana on the 8th (4:00PM), NAU on the 15th (4:00PM) and the 17th (Northern Colorado, 1:00PM). The finale of the soccer season is Halloween at 1:00PM. Volleyball also has a candy bag of goodies with 6 home matches. AAAASSSS Folloooowwss: Sacramento State (9th, 7:00PM), BSU (10th, 7:00PM), Seattle (16th, 7:00PM) UVU (17th, 7:00PM), Northern Colorado (30th, 7:00PM) and NAU finishes on Halloween at 7:00PM.
The 8th-10th will feature 4 home games and the 15th-17th will be a Bengal Bonanza (why ASISU never schedules Homecoming on a week full of Bengal games defies common sense) with 6 games; 4 on Saturday alone (choose between rugby at 1PM or soccer at 1PM)
November
What to look for: The hopefully happy ending for Soccer, Rugby, Volleyball and Football
The final month for football, volleyball, soccer and rugby and the transition to the hardwood! There's the big Montana game on the 7th; Hell kicks off at 3:30 in Holt (and fill that sucker UP). Football finishes on the 14th with a 3:30 kickoff time and volleyball has 3 matches with Weber (7:00PM, the 14th), MSU (the 20th at 7:00) and Montana (21st at 7:00PM).
