"Lots of great games were played out in Georgia. It's a real head-scratcher as to why #15 Texas Lutheran decided to stay home at the last second - especially since they will not play a game outside of Texas the rest of the regular season - and since they do not play East Texas Baptist - they likely will not play a top 25 team the entire season."
TLU could now pick up some games since they have a 6 game hole in their allotted 40 games. Not sure who they would find to play but they could find some games. I doubt ETBU and them would hook up given they will more than likely be regional or super regional opponents.
Regarding not playing a top 25 team, in 2016 St. John Fisher never played a ranked team until they got to the National Championship tournament. I believe they finished 3rd at the tournament and finished ranked #2.
