in 2019.

I like it. More games, get to play more teams more often, and will probably just help to increase teams RPI.

Just in time for the Josh Pastner pain train to wreck the league.

Wonder if this will be followed by other conferences? Will be harder for those outside the P5 to get games.

I like it, but do ACC teams really need help with their RPI? Between their traditional 18 game conference schedule, the ACC/Big Ten challenge, and the conference tournament, the RPI seems to take care of itself.

No they dont. But this will just make it even better. Cant wait for people from other conferences to start arguing about inflated RPI when more bubble ACC teams get in. Its an argument that is already in use so this should just encourage haters even more.

So are there any guesses out there on how the scheduling is going to play out. Seems like this would benefit some of the top teams like Duke and UNC since they already play twice.

Dunno, but Im hoping it means that State and Duke will play twice a year every year now.

So losing to Duke three times last year didn't do anything to discourage you?

Last year we sucked, so if that discouraged me, then I wouldnt want state to play anyone in the ACC except BC, Pitt, Wake, and Ga Tech.

Insert pics from 2013 and 2015 here of state beating duke
