it would be nice to play MT and WKU for a few consecutive years.....that could develop into something of interest....why the scheduling body has ignored that is beyond my ability to comprehend.....

the bottom line is this thread reminds me of this.....

While I too would like to play USM more regularly, the scheduling body isn't trying to make things more interesting for some teams and not others, with an eight game conference schedule and fourteen members, there just isn't much that can be done, especially when, if I'm not mistaken, 2017/2018 will be the first time we've had the same 14 members aligned in the same divisions, back to back seasons since the beginning of 3.0.
