Believe me, I am as upset as anyone about the basketball snub situation. It is time for all the mid-major schools to get together and state their cases in both football and basketball. They should create a mid-major BCS type system and use their collective power to align bowl games and maybe have their own ncaa tournament. Let's look at both football and basketball. The biggest task is to get scheduling fairness. How is it fair to have all the major schools play their non-conference games at home? FootballThe national champs U. of Florida played 12 regular season games last year. 7 were at home and 5 on the road. Conversely, the University of Akron played 5 games at home and 7 on the road. This creates an unfair advantage in college football. Why? Show me the money. The mid-majors should ban together and get the NCAA to pass a resolution stating that every team should play an equal number of home/away games. BasketballDrexel played 17 away games this year and 12 home games. Akron played 16 away games, 13 home games.Ohio State played 19 home games, 11 away games.How can a mid-major compete when it plays all its games away from home? Again, the NCAA should mandate that teams play an equal number of home/away games for each sport.
