OK, so we put you on a long, long car ride last week, and we're about to do it again. Start with an NJAC game under the lights in northern New Jersey with TCNJ at Kean and then hop in the car. (Honestly, while you have the 10 hours it would take to drive this route plus still get four hours of sleep, you just might want to look into what it would take to fly from Newark to Cincinnati.) We considered an alternate itinerary but the pull of Washington and Jefferson at Thomas More is just too strong to ignore. Too much at stake. And you finish with a reachable drive to see Wittenberg at Ohio Wesleyan to close the weekend.

If you can't picture driving 636 miles between Friday night and Saturday at noon, we understand this. An viable alternative is instead to drive to Cortland, N.Y., to see St. John Fisher at Cortland, and continue on to see Ithaca at Hobart. But while Cortland-St. John Fisher has conference title implications, so does W&J at Thomas More, and you might find it worth the extra drive. If you do go to Thomas More, you could choose to finish the weekend by remaining in the Cincinnati area and seeing Otterbein at Wilmington instead. But it's hard for us to recommend seeing a team that has won literally three games out of its previous 70 entering this season.

Total: Three games, 774 miles start to finish.
