Large conferences cause schools to put these out.

Large conferences cause schools to put these out.

Kind of a fascinating method they got to the title matchup

Per AP

Boise State, New Mexico, San Diego State and UNLV all finished with 6-2 records in conference play. Because all four teams did not meet this season, the tie was broken by a composite average of nationally recognized metrics: Connelly SP+, ESPN SOR, KPI and SportSource rankings.

How does a Virginia loss to NC State not count as a conference loss?

It would be like if the big ten didn’t schedule Mn vs Illinois so we decided to schedule them for a non conference game.

Winona St played Duluth to start the season at Vikings TCO stadium and was considered non conference. Strange I know.

I guess it happens more in high school (non-football sports) where a team may not get a specific rival on their schedule and will schedule them as non-conference, or in basketball where maybe a conference will schedule two teams to a conference game and then the schools will schedule a second game as a non-conference game.

I don't think I've ever heard of that happening in college sports or at least haven't paid attention to it.

Indiana and Purdue played a non-conference basketball game in the old Hoosier Dome the year they were only scheduled for one Big Ten encounter. I think it was early 2000s.
