SMU will play Cal Baptist and Fresno State will play Washington State in the first round.

Perfect timing (or planning?) as this creates 2 games NEXT YEAR in SoCal for any players on SMU who may be originally from SoCal. hmmmm

and a possible recruiting opportunity for a coach who is well known there

more details
The third group includes SMU, Washington State, Fresno State and Pepperdine. That will be called the Acrisure Holiday Invitational.
