game. It's a good resume builder and as a school aspiring to make noise in the NCAA tournament it's better than playing against the worst of D1.

We talk all the time about regional rivalries and how important they are for college sports but I look at our schedule this year and we have Central Arkansas, Queens, Mississippi Valley State, and Florida A&M that I look at and I'm like, we should just play a lower level in-state team like UVU, WSU, SUU or UTU or some other regional Q4 game that we might have more familiarity with rather than bring those schools in from across the country that we have no connection with.

Sure I don't want a USU game or other regional game to replace the possibility of playing one of the blue bloods but if we already have a ton of Q4 games on the schedule then we replace one of those with the USU game or another in-state or regional school.
