The second column will include home games against teams ranked 31-75, neutral-site games versus teams ranked 51-100 and road games against teams ranked 76-135."

This is certainly an improvement and has to be good news for all non-Power 5 teams. It incentivizes teams to play non-conference away games against Top 75 teams and it gives more credit for road wins when non-Power 5 go on the road in non-conference games (as they often have to) and win against Top 75 teams.
I disagree that this will make teams go to play on the road for OOC games. The power 5 can still get many opportunities to play top 100 teams on the road just by completing their conference schedule. If anything, this will make it harder for mid majors because they will have less chances to pick up these wins.
