The scheduling problem for the two marquee games revolves around 2 main issues, IMO.

1. It is hard to get teams to agree to a 2 year contract where they have to play on the road in both years. Most of the so-called "quality" teams can play a home and home with another school closer to them and come out better financially. However with the scheduling mandates, a 2 year contract is unavoidable.

2. Finding the perfect 2 teams to play Belfry and Pikeville and flip flop them is near impossible because the level of play at Belfry and Pikeville is no longer similar.


For what it is worth, I think it is pretty close to being a done deal that Montgomery Co and Somerset will be the two opponents for 2013-2014. That is a step up in competition if it indeed works out that way
