4. The Atlantic 10 will then scramble to add the best remaining assets from the CAA (see: George Mason, College of Charleston or Drexel), Southern Conference (Davidson) or even Horizon (Valparaiso?). This is far more speculative than prediction No. 3, but it's natural that the A-10 would try to replace at least some of the six to seven teams it's bound to lose after this season. The Catholic 7's formation/expansion is a direct threat to the future of the East Coast's lesser leagues, and they'll need to be proactive to remain relevant.

...
Sat. 3:00 p.m.: Valparaiso at Murray State (ESPN3): One of the best mid-major matchups of the season. Valpo is the favorite in the Horizon, while Murray State looks like they picked up where they left off last season. Isaiah Canaan looks like an all-american again, and Stacy Wilson has proven to be terrific this year. The best matchup, however, will end up being Ed Daniel squaring off with Valpo’s front line of Ryan Broekhoff and Kevin Van Wijk.
