I think 28 is the limit, so they would only get to add 1 more game. However, they only played 27 this year (like us) so they might not add another game. -- Fordham Rams Basketball Message Board

In reply to: Rambacker 's message, "With 16 league games, that would make 27. Aren't college teams allowed to schedule 28 regular season games? More?" on Wed March 23, 2005 11:29:59

If that is the case, then this would appear to be too tough a schedule for them, based on who they have coming back/in. What I like about the schedule is the creative thinking with Gonzaga, St. Mary's, Kansas at MSG, possibly Marquette or Creighton. Nice job on selecting the opponents. We should consider a similar strategy as we move forward. (NT) -- Rambacker, Wed March 23, 2005 12:52:08
28 is the limit, but the 28th game is allotted for the conference tournament. So when you boil it down for A-10 teams, you have 16 conference games, 11 OOC games, and 1 game allotted for the A-10 tournament. (NT) -- DonHo, Wed March 23, 2005 15:05:12
- Thanks for the clarification. (NT) -- Rambacker, Wed March 23, 2005 15:53:08
- That is what I had heard DonHo, but was not certain how true it was. Thanks for confirming. Here is a question for anybody that might now the answer: Do the Ivy League teams get to schedule an extra game since they do not have a league tournament or do they have to leave it open in case they have to go to a tie-break playoff game?

  - Dete, I don't have the answer to your question. But along those same lines, I'm wondering if there is a special provision for teams in leagues that do not allow all of their teams in their conference tournaments (e.g. the C-USA setup until next season, the Big East except this season, and the A-10 beginning next year)? I don't think there is...but I'm curious to find out. (NT) -- DonHo, Wed March 23, 2005 16:44:46
    - Is it official that the bottom two teams in the A-10 will not make the conf. tourney? I know it makes sense, but with Linda you never know. (NT) -- J92, Wed March 23, 2005 21:06:32
      - The lowest two teams will play in the tournament, but will not be invited to the banquet. (NT) -- L. Bruno, Thu March 24, 2005 11:14:27
