A10/MW Challenge

Hope it happens. Similar rated conferences and exposure for Spiders out west. Maybe get a couple recruits out of it. Easy to take away one game each year from the list of weak opponents that usually occupy UR's OOC schedule.

If started this season these would be the matchups if scheduled accordingly from Kenpom power ratings .....

St Louis (68) Nevada (6)
Davidson (83) SD State (65)
Dayton (100) Fresno St (110)
St Bonny (103) Boise St (111)
St Joe's (104) N Mexico (128)
Rhode Is (108) Wyoming (145)
Richmond (115) UNLV (146)
G Mason (117) Utah St (170)
VCU (126) Colorado St (174)
UMass (142) Air Force (212)
Duquense (171) San Jose St (325)

I could go for a road trip to Vegas, with the Mrs. of course.

"According to an A-10 release, factors that will be taken into account for the matchups include “previous year’s records, NET rankings and team achievements, as well as projected rankings and anticipated strength of teams for the upcoming season.”

Given our current rankings, I would suspect that we will be one of the 4 A-10 teams left out. Us, Fordham, LaSalle, and GW. Nice company we keep, huh.

Maybe we can have our own tournament with UVa Wise, Bridgewater, and Randy Mac.

Well, it doesn’t start until ‘20-21 so we’ve at least got a season to rehab our image.

Lol! So the Spiders might not even get to be involved. Why not sub in Cal Bakersfield with an invite to the RC.
