Love this. But really we just need to quit the 300 level weekend opponents early. Killer to OOC metrics.
Get Oregon or Oregon State to come for a weekend. Or Carolina schools. Hell - even Big 10. All are trying to find southern games I'd think.
The lower tier school scheduling is a real crap shoot. A Penn/Columbia could fall anywhere between 80 and 300 and you're just hoping they're good (but not good enough to actually beat you), and that they schedule well. If you school a normally pretty decent team and they have a down year, so be it. Bad luck.
But we had a few we scheduled in recent years that we absolutely knew were anchors on the RPI and that simply has to go.
Edit: and yes, there's plenty of quality Northern schools, or even Big12/BIG schools that need RPI and warmer weather.
