Message: [QUOTE="Plebe, post: 3694751, member: 6927"] It's more than a couple on both counts. UConn has played 16 conference games the past several years, so the switch to 20 displaces 4 nonconference games. And the shortened format limits teams to 23 total games plus a multi-team event (or 25 with no MTE), which in effect equates to an additional loss of 4 OOC games. The final balance, if my arithmetic holds up, is a decrease from 13 to 5 nonconference games. As I questioned elsewhere, I'm not seeing how each of ND, Baylor, SC, and TN can stay on the schedule alongside a 20-game Big East season plus the two-game Mohegan event. [/QUOTE]
