The CBE Classic is an MTE. When you have one of those that has two home games, the home games are always going to be horrible.

This would be a doubleheader, not an MTE. Huge Difference.

Yup. It's not a winner plays winner and loser plays loser.

It's simply a neutral site game branded as an event. No other teams involved. No need for more status. It's just a standalone game as part of a double header.

The beauty of it, from that perspective, that it's only happen once every 3 years. The other years it's a Big East, A10, B10/12 type team.

WSU already has an identity. I don't think there is anything that would make most Valley teams any different than the rest of the pool of scheduling candidates, negative or positive.

Having said that, it's also not like Valpo, Belmont and Murray State have been regulars on the WSU schedule.

UNI has routinely played OOCs similar, or better, than WSU. That will continue to be the case.

It would be interesting to see a set up in Kansas City, similar to the event UNI plays with Drake/Iowa/Iowa State or that Kentucky/UCLA/Kansas and some other school plays.

WSU
Creighton
UNI
Someone else

Sprint Center - 1 day 2 games. Expenses and profits split 25/25/25/25.
Year 1 WSU/Creighton - UNI/St Louis
Year 2 WSU/UNI - Creighton/St Louis
Year 3 WSU/St Louis - Creighton UNI

18K seats. Tickets running between $35-$75 a pop.
3 hours from WSU
3 hours from Creighton
3.5 hours from St Louis
4.5 hours from Cedar Falls
Inert other school. Hell, make it

It's a damn good RPI/SOS set up for all involved.

I'd like to see this.

My only problem with a series with UNI is that UNI hasn't strung together three consecutive top 100 RPI seasons under Jacobson. I love Jacobson, but that three year pattern he has going is pretty obvious -- load up on upper-classmen for a ride, eat the lean year, repeat. If that schedule was going to work, I think it'd need to be two home games to one road game, H/H with a gap year, or an event like the above.

Creighton's identity is no different if they play Valley teams or not, because their identity is and always will be "team that loses by double digits in first weekend of NCAA tourney to team that loses their next game."

Playing RPI 110 on a neutral floor does not hurt your computer numbers in any way.

A loss does. And the committee has made it clear that going 20-0 against teams 100-125 means absolutely nothing if you don't have top 50 wins with it.

What about RPI 163? You know, UNI's actual RPI this year?

If you swap UNI's two losses to Wichita with splitting a series against Murray State this year, suddenly they're at 177. Do similar with everyone else in the conference, where even changing 0-2 to 1-1 drops every team individually, and suddenly UNI is on the wrong side of 200.

And yes, playing RPI 200+ on a neutral floor does hurt. It would be putting UNI in the place we had Saint Louis this year, which is not the kind of game we want to replicate.

I don't trust UNI's consistent down years to not be RPI killers in the future.
