UT’s out of conference schedule isn’t great

Plus they have some bad loses as well. Very curious if/when these top 20 sites will be released. I’ve felt confident about hosting but all the ones guessing do not have UT hosting or they are borderline. Getting nervous about asking off work now, lol.

Almost as if they are still trying to guess top 16, vs who actually put a bid in and can stick with the protocols. Not sure which week, but the 7innings podcast crew brought up a valid point. How many west coast schools would actually host? That’s a lot of plane tickets to fly east coast teams out there when they can bus several places around the south, when $$ is tight this year for the NCAA. Many of the predictions I’ve seen still have several PAC 12 schools hosting when there are probably not enough west coast schools to fill all of them. Easier to fly one team east vs flying 3 out west.
