    I'm not familiar with the exemption rules. So if Lowell plays Brown and Colgate in Belfast those games are exempt from the 34 game limit?

                  Well you could, but it'd count against your 34. Brown might be able to get away with it because the Ivy League may consider them "scrimmages" to not count against their 29, but that wouldn't apply to the other three.

                    From the Brown thread. Based upon LSSU being fairly full, I'd say they may be first opponents in the Catamount Cup. Awaiting confirmation on that.

                      I agree that LSSU and Brown will probably play against each other the first day of the Catamount Cup according to the info Brown2k posted. Any idea on the possible 4th Catamount Cup team?

                              Of course then you open yourself up to irritating fans if changes are made. Best to wait until all is set in stone to release it. The NFL has half as many teams and starts a month earlier and they're still a couple weeks away from announcing their schedule.
