The last few years, Murray State has played Bethel University. Can we assume those games are a thing of the past? Or are those exhibition games and don't count?
They’ve been both. It sounds like the exhibition games will all be against D1 teams moving forward. He wants to avoid playing the Bethels of the world in the regular season — but that’s easier said than done. If they can’t find enough D1 games, especially home games, they may need to schedule a team like Bethel even if he doesn’t want to.
Thanks for the response. Sounds like mid-majors are caught in the middle.
