I would like to see it stopped as well, but we are not behind the scenes, at least I'm not, and dont see the work being done to schedule good games. It may be fact that that's the best schedule we (ASUN schools) can get at the time. Maybe too many schools dont want to take a chance on a L to an ASUN school. I dont know, but the facts remain, we must start winning more OOC games, vs D1 schools especially P5 schools to get more teams in the tournament.
I do know that UNA hasn't put out their schedule, but I did see that UNA is playing Florida State in Tallahassee.

Nice find. Definitely room to grow for the entire ASUN.
Suprising that UNA is not at the bottom of the list. Being a "glorified junior college" as some Bama fans say.

Well to your benefit &/or detriment, you've only had one year at the D1 level, so that's the ranking y'all had for last season. This year can help that immensely, or hurt immensely, depending on how the team does.
