Thought I'd post this here because of the content from the Athletic. They took a crack at putting schools in a bubble. As per their guidelines....

• Eight teams per pod, at most sites

• Six games per team, in a round-robin format

• Conference matchups avoided

• Off-days included, based on best practices from the schools and the NCAA

They go into costs and other details as well, but they positioned the bubble for us as such...

Site: Hershey, Pa.
Arena: Hersheypark Arena
Teams: Army, Binghamton, Bucknell, Drexel, La Salle, Penn, Pitt, Seton Hall
Quick take: Have you been to Hershey? It actually smells like chocolate, like you could float through the town on the scent of it. Bubbling here will be pleasurable. And I assume there will be free candy. My Philadelphia-area roots desperately wanted to keep all of the Big 5 teams together, but that proved difficult. At least we preserve a taste here, with La Salle and Penn. And Drexel, the sixth school in the Big 5, finally gets into a bit of the City Series action.
