FULTON, MS – Itawamba Community College head football coach Sean Cannon released the Indians' 2015 football schedule on Friday.
The 2015 campaign will feature five home games for the Indians, who will open with back-to-back contests against Copiah-Lincoln Community College (Aug. 27) and Jones County Junior College (Sept. 3) at Eaton Field.
"It's always good to play at home," said Cannon, who enters his second season as head coach. "We open with what's probably going to be two top 20 teams in the country, so getting them at home is going to be an advantage for us, but in this league, it's going to be tough regardless of who you play or when you play them."

ICC will open MACJC North Division play on the road against Holmes Community College (Sept. 10) before returning to Fulton to face Northwest Mississippi Community College (Sept. 17) for Military Appreciation Night.
In their first Saturday game of the season, the Indians will travel to Scooba to take on the defending NJCAA champion East Mississippi Community College (Sept. 26). The Indians will have another Saturday showdown the following week when Coahoma Community College rolls into Fulton for Homecoming (Oct. 3).
After two Saturday contests, the Indians will have a short week to prepare for a battle in Booneville with the rival Northeast Mississippi Community College Tigers (Oct. 8).
"We always look forward to playing those guys (Northeast)," said Cannon. "They're our rival, and it's always a classic game when we play."
The Indians return home the next week to take on Mississippi Delta Community College (Oct. 15) in the final MACJC North battle.
To wrap up the regular season, the Indians will hit the road to face last season's MACJC Runner-up and South Division Champ, Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College (Oct. 24).
