NO Mohegan Sun for RU

A 300 rated non conference sos never helps

Disappointing entertainment wise

The goal is not designed to entertain fans with a game at a remote location in mid or late November that's possibly not even televised and going up against college football.

There's enough entertainment with 2 B1G games in November/December, mixed with Seton Hall, the ACC/B1G game and another OOC game (typically the Gavitt Games vs a Big East opponent.

You keep saying this year after year and it never comes up with discussing where teams get left out or make if in.

The key as you know, are quality wins (Q1 and Q2), and road or neutral wins. If this past season didn't show the OOC ranking gets a lot of hype, but doesn't impact who gets into the dance, not sure what to tell you.

entertainment is the goal of all sports leagues and conferences and the teams that participate in them full stop

and all of them are televised - that's why they exist and are profitable

Your right. We’ve gotten lucky and beaten good teams as you say so playing only bad ones out of conference hasn’t hurt us. But ask Wake Forest how playing a weak OOC schedule worked out for them this year. We probably would’ve been left out with a different 12-8 conf resume (say we’d beaten Minny, NW, PSU and Maryland instead of our best wins) based on our OOC.

NCSOS factors into the team sheets. It absolutely comes up. Take your blinders off.

Confirmed 250 and lower NET games
Columbia
Bucknell
CCSU
Coppin St
Rider

SHU
ACC challenge maybe ND?
MAYBE Neutral site Providence/Gtown

Would be nice if the last 2 added home games were respectable opponents- A10, Colonial, American
but we know it’ll be a FDU, NJIT, Maine Christmas week combo

Rider is a favorite in the MAAC along with Iona.
