Nothing is stopping teams from scheduling games with the CUSA/Sun Belt/SoCon/etc. The mindset that the MVC needs join some "alliance" do so is what I find baffling.

My biggest issue would be that joining an alliance with other one bid leagues just reinforces the negative perception people have of the MVC.

Using that logic i guess its a good thing the MWC/MVC Challenge is ending since we should schedule alliances with other one bid leagues.

I really don't think it's ending. I think next year is just a one year break.

Read it again. I'm saying not to sign an alliance with other one bid leagues because doing so only reinforces the negative perception of the MVC.

Nobody wants to lose the MWC challenge and it's a one bid league...

Yep.

The Mountain West is playing their league tournament a week earlier than usual due to some massive trade show in Vegas and they are playing some league games in early December to pacify their TV Partners. It'll be back in 20-21.

There needs to be a fact-check preapprover feature.

In his defense, the MWC likely would have been a one-bid league last year if Nevada had won the conference tournament. That said, its history suggests that it is very likely to generate multiple bids when its better programs are running as they should.
