Big Sky 13: How Many Conf Games?

[Screamin_Eagle174]

Here is an even better idea I got from the Sioux board.

Give each team 4 rivals that play every year and then play 4 of the other 8 teams every other year.

Possible rivals:

UM: MSU/EWU/UND/WSU
EWU: UM/PSU/CP/Sac
PSU: EWU/CP/Sac/UCD
ISU: UND/WSU/MSU/UNC
WSU: ISU/SUU/UM/NAU
SUU: WSU/NAU/UNC/UCD
NAU: SUU/UNC/WSU/MSU
UNC: NAU/UND/SUU/ISU
UND: UNC/MSU/UM/ISU
MSU: UND/UM/ISU/NAU
CP: UCD/Sac/EWU/PSU
UCD: CP/Sac/SUU/PSU
Sac: UCD/CP/PSU/EWU
I like it. I like it a lot.

That's pretty good, but I might want to consider swapping EWU for Weber.

Why, so you have a better chance of winning?

Nah. I just like Weber better. They gave a chance to a former teammate after UOP dumped the program, and he parlayed that into a past college head coaching job (at the age 28, no less). He's now Special Teams Coordinator for the Raiders.
