Sounds fair to me - selection committee evening things out a tad by doing this.
Could really help rising programs who must take those tough road games and rewards them should they pull off the upsets, etc.

They don't Dex, and in many cases, teams are locked into multi-year, home and home series.
Call me a skeptic, but the "rich" always seem to get "richer" where it comes to the NCAA.
Fortunately, we have a coach that will figure it out - even it some of the "elite" programs won't play us...

This should have been something emphasized before schedules were made and finalized this year or maybe they should start this after this season to level the playing field a bit. Seems like a good idea, I just think the timing is questionable.

We have been trying to schedule elite teams since Cooley arrived anyway, right? Not sure knowing earlier would have changed PC's scheduling approach much. Not sure it will change much in terms of scheduling for any teams. There are only so many teams to go around. You could argue that maybe a Syracuse should hit the road earlier but they don't have to as they have plenty of tough road games in the ACC.

Just another metric added to selection sunday conversation.. the bubble gets worse on an annual basis..plenty of spots available for quality teams.
