The ACC has already signed up for that starting in 2019-20. Looks like it will be getting harder to schedule the big boys. The financial squeeze continues for the non-majors.

How many "buy" games have we played at High-Majors the last 5 years? From the standpoint of getting to play those big names, this hurts us just like the others. I've seen crazier things happen.

Since the "P"s are using conference games to beef up their schedules, do they really need an OOC game against another "P" for RPI purposes? We will get by. We will get by. We will get by. We will survive.

The NCAA has provided zero incentive for the P5 schools to play on the road OOC. The money takes care of the money. Been saying that for years. No one listening. Make the big boys come out on the road or change the value of wins when selection sunday comes....or threaten to go to a 128 team tourney by adding one more day....I think that thought is gone now...Oh well. May as well turn in our mid and low major cards and just go back to rooting for the ones with the power structure in place. never argue with idiots, they bring you down to their level and beat you with experience. Winter comes and asks how you spent your summer.....

I'm trending in the opposite direction.
