Below link ranks bracketbuster teams by home and away teams www.vcuramnation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=7889My understanding is they try to set the matchups based on comparable rankings and minimizing travel. My best guess based on current rankings would be for the Yotes to host Idaho State, Toledo or Loyola of Chicago

Of the three I would rank them as follows for desirability
1. Toledo 2. Idaho State 3. Loyola of Chicago
I would like to see USD schedule more home and homes against Big Sky teams. I don't know if it's possible but would there be anyway that USD could work in tandem with UMKC or SDSU and schedule in pairs for non conference games. Maybe one year on a particular weekend both schools could head out to somewhere like Florida A&M and Savannah State and the next year both schools could come to the Dakota's and play USD and someone else. One plane trip, a quick bus trip and a plane trip home. Who knows maybe this is already taking place but if not I think it would be a good idea. Kill 2 birds with one stone.

It's not a bad idea, just when you have 4 teams involved and 1 team needs to change the schedule,it starts a chain reaction.

How has nobody talked about this on here today? Plenty of discussion going on through twitter.
Saw Jeremy Hoeck mentioned earlier that he heard we might play Texas State
