NEC, SWAC (usually), MEAC, Great West...
Is it by ruling of the governing body of the conferences?
Or is it perhaps because linesmakers find these conferences to be too inconsistent or not enough eyes are on them?
Maybe prone to point shaving due to their small stature and level of interest?
I know there is a reason, I'm just not sure of the exact reason!
Anyone with this knowledge?
I know they are small schools and not many people would actually care to wager on these (mostly), but there are plenty of people who would I'm sure if given the opportunity.
