    What is the SB's reasoning for going to less conference games? I don't expect we will have more OOC games; I am just trying to understand it.

    The Sun Belt, from a strength standpoint, isn't as good as it was a few years ago. The Florida schools leaving had a lot to do with that. App and Ga. State have been very poor. ULM and Arkansas State also have struggled.

    The league decided to cut the league schedule to 24 and give the schools two bye weeks in the middle of conference. It gives those who are in the hunt for post season to "schedule up" during those weeks.

    With the American, the Atlantic Sun, the Big 12 and the Southland all having bye weeks, it makes sense. Lots of good teams to choose from.

    (One of the Cajuns' bye weeks is the first week of conference play which is how we got TCU. We were supposed to play Sam in the other, but after Deggs was named HC, the series was cancelled. With that, and COVID to consider, the other bye week is either North Alabama or Houston Baptist. The other one is in pre-conference.)

    In addition, your cross division series depend on your rolling RPI from the last three years. Good plays good. Cajuns play Coastal, South Al and Troy. ULM plays the two Georgia Schools and App. You still play everyone in your division.

    Cajuns get Troy, Coastal, Texas State and Arkansas State at home. Travel to LR, UTA, ULM and USA.

    Thank you for the reply; this makes sense!

    I guess SHSU wasn't too keen on Coach Deggs coming here.

    Latest vaccine schedule is May/June for regular college students. That’ll be near post season.

    Subject to revision, but, right now, vaccines want be available to under 65 until April or even May, more likely.
