2021 Baseball Season - AAC Approved

[SB Shock]

Kendal Rogers tweeted that the AAC has approved the following for 2021 Baseball

1. 56 games
2. 32 conference games (up from 24)
3. 4-game series (still three total days doubleheader on Sat.)
4. Will try to utilize #MLB extra-inning rules
5. No midweeks after conf begins.

No mid week games will be odd but, ok for this year.

Should have Houston, ECU, Memphis and UCF at home and @Houston @Cincinnati @Tulane & @USF not in that order I’m sure.

Pretty sure B1G is conference only so that takes out contract with Nebraska, hopefully just pushed forward and not canceled all together. That will be tough to replace but I have supreme confidence in Coach Hibbs to get someone decent to fill their spot on the schedule. Would be nice to go somewhere warm!

Are the games on tv?

Last year there were a lot of games on Cox. It wouldn't suprise me if there are games on ESPN+. But until they release the schedule, it hard to answer that otherwise.

San Diego State and USD both have good programs. Perhaps they can swing a trip out here to SD. I know I would love that.

California college teams are not allowed to travel to Kansas because Kansas is discriminatory .

Assembly Bill No. 1887 is a California law enacted last year that prohibits most forms of state-funded travel to places with legislation deemed discriminatory, particularly against gay, bisexual or transgender people. Eight states are on the banned list.

Kansas is one of them.

WSU would not likely choose to travel to CA due to their covid restrictions, unless I guess if California would give them a waiver.

1. Persons arriving in California from other states or countries, including returning California residents, should practice self-quarantine for 14 days after arrival. These persons should limit their interactions to their immediate household. This recommendation does not apply to individuals who cross state or country borders for essential travel.

My guess would be that Texas would have a lot of possible games that aren't far against good opponents. Also, Louisiana, Alabama. and Florida.

I say we should opt for a bill in Kansas that prohibits teams from visiting sanctuary type states.

Conference road trips are going to be a challenge with Memphis being the closest.

Its definitely a challenge we want because its a top shelf league.
