UTC wins 72-66

UTC is strong this year. Would have been great to have them and UALR on our schedule this year.

This same team thumped us in Chatty last year. Will Wade left a gold mine.

Supposedly Chattanooga was going to be on the schedule this season but for whatever reason it didn't happen...any chance we play them in 2016/17?

Chattanooga is currently 22-3 with RPI of 38...with ROAD WINS @ Georgia, @ Illinois and @ Dayton

and they still have to win their conference tourney to get in the Dance. Ridiculous.

Chattanooga has a legit shot at an at large. (Doesn't mean they get in)

They thought they would play them in the ECC so the game was not scheduled. They may rotate back on.

yeah,, that was 1 away game I actually left before it was over, because it was over IMHO in the first half. Worst performance by a Blazer team that Ive seen in a LONG LONG time.

I sure hope we can work something out

The problem was when we were making the schedule there was a risk of playing them twice in a matter of a week in Bartow. I bet Chattanooga didn't like that on bit. I suspect we will sign another H&H with them.

Chattanooga, Belmont and Georgia State would be good home and homes to have on the schedule every year. Those teams aren't always good, but most years they would be good, and they are easy drives for the fan bases.

I agree.

Agreeed. Murray State would be another good regional school to add, though the drive isnt as easy.
