With Robert Morris coming back to the NEC, the Patriot League and NEC could collaborate and produce the following rivalry week:
Lehigh-Lafayette
Colgate-Bucknell
Holy Cross-Fordham
Georgetown-Duquesne
Bob Morris-St. Francis
Merrimack-Stonehill
CCSU-Sacred Heart
LIU-Wagner
You could also do HC-Georgetown and Fordham-Duquesne (A-10 connection) but I think HC-Fordham after the last few years + already having a rivalry trophy would be more likely option. As much as I wouldn't mind a game in a slightly warmer DC every other year in late November.
