Just saw the Pac 12 will go to 20 conference games starting in 2020 which added to the ACC and Big Ten who are also going to 20 means there will be 82 less non conference games for teams like Dayton to have a chance to schedule.

Also means more NET games to help their overall rankings which will mean even less non P5 teams making the NCAA tournament.

These three leagues were ones where we seldom got a game home or away. Now it will be virtually impossible to play any of them other than in one of the preseason tournaments.

Guess our best hope is the B.East decides to go to a 20 game schedule and adds a team sooner rather than later and we end up being the team.I just think at large teams from mid majors which I guess Dayton is included in are becoming very rare Don't look for the NCAA to step in and help level the playing field as they protect the money makers at all costs.
