A top 25 at home, another on the road, and a chance for a couple more neutral. Better than most. I thought the AD was killing scheduling?

Who's the top 25 on the road? It's definitely not LSU. The other top 25 would be neutral floor.

Yeah, LSU made it to the NIT 2nd round this past season and has a #4 recruiting class coming in with two 5 stars and two 4 stars. They will be a pretty good team and likely top 25 when we play them.

Very good chance we get Oklahoma St in the first game of the Advocare, too. While unranked, still a typically quality opponent.

Not exactly a power schedule.

South Dakota State is good, finished with a 36 rpi.

I like Tennessee, LSU, top 25.

Nova would be a big plus if we could play them.

At this point I don't care who we play as long as we beat them.

Ah didn't know LSU was supposed to be that good next year.

Lol...I don't think they will be great.

But their recruiting class is an impressive haul...We return essentially everybody and they lose two of their main guys.

Hopefully we play them earlier this year than we did last year so we can take advantage of that inexperience.

That didn't exactly come out right.

I'd sure like to see Arkansas, Duke, Oregon, and Kentucky on the schedule soon.

I think as the only defending champion in the field, we should get Canisius

I'm betting the top 2 "seeds" are Nova and FSU. That leaves us, OSU, LSU battling for seeds 3-5. Since we have a regular season game with LSU, they won't match us up in the 4-5 game. So we either get the 3-seed, or we get OSU in the 4-5 game.

The sked seems a little better than the last couple of years, so that is progress. I would not play Arkansas under any circumstance. They are a bunch of snakes, rain on them.

Arkansas was a big rivalry when Penny was playing. I can see why he would want to revive that.

Is Todd Day taking Arkansas HC job?

THE BIG TICKET, will have a large impact on the schedule
