I hear Fatt's may get a case of food poisoning that day, after a long fitful night filled with nightmares of Gilly picking his pocket on loop.
Okay, so maybe I'm the only one who didn't realize this, but the Bahamas tournament is actually a six-team MTE with each team playing three games, although only four teams are going to the Bahamas to play two games each there.
Our Hofstra game is a campus round of the tournament, and the Pride will also be playing at Maryland. Meanwhile, Detroit Mercy will be playing at Lousiville and Mississippi State, and then Hofstra and Detroit will play each other at Hofstra as their third games for the tournament.
Ultimately, it doesn't matter for our scheduling purposes, because the max number of games is 31, regardless of whether your MTE includes two or three games.

I think I follow this.
Do you schedule it like this as a way to essentially play more than 31 games?

It’s how you get to 31 games.
If you don’t participate in an MTE, you can only play 29 games. If you’re in a 2-game MTE, you can play 29 plus the two for a total of 31. If you’re in a 3-game MTE, you can play 28 plus the three, again for a total of 31.

makes sense. I was annoyed when we added hostfra again as I was hoping for a big 10 or ACC team but this makes more sense now.
Having to play #167 Hofstra to get Maryland and Louisville is lot better than many tournaments we have been in. Too often we have had to play 2 teams #320-350…

Agreed, we usually have to take two little sisters of the poor home games with these MTE's, so this is great. Hofstra though has had Mooney's number, so this has trap game written all over it.
He just meant it's part of the package for the tournament, not that the outcome of the game means anything for our matchups. In the past it's been two crappy games for two good games, but this is one mediocre game for two good games.
Ahh I got you. That was my original point as well though.
I’m more okay with Hostfra given it is part of a great tournament.
And #16 Arkansas was down by 12 against Mercer in the 1st half. Lots of good teams struggling today. Can't judge a team based on a single game, or a single half. I still have hope we will have a good season.Hofstra currently up nine on #15 Houston in the second half.
Somewhat reassuring to see their board can be as pessimistic as ours.
We’re back. Ur ticket office sends out an email with an obvious mistake. The world is healing.
Yeah, it is. Particularly timely after they had to play last night's game against Drexel in Drexel's practice jerseys after they forgot theirs.
