Why? Why not play one of the many D1 programs in this state, like Elon, App, ECU, Gardner Webb, or Campbell. Surely one of those teams could use a game. I hate playing a D2 school.
For the most part I agree with this, but I think Forbes is viewing our out of conference as an exhibition season to an extent. Well, he at least knows his team needs to rack up all of the wins and confidence it can before the real games start. He would never admit any of this and maybe I'm way off, but IMO he's gotta be viewing these first handful of games as glorified scrimmages, since we didn't get our normal preseason.
Now, to your point, I imagine ECU or the others you mentioned would be much bigger tests for our guys, so the other part of me wonders why he wouldn't want to take advantage of a possible better "measuring stick" for where we are at.
