We certainly shouldn't lose more than 4 OOC games, certainly the home portion is pretty uninspiring, except for the USC game which will be tasty!

A lot of elite programs don't do true H&Hs, especially in an environment like Moody. Getting USC at home, who could be top ten when they play us, is awesome for OOC. Boise is a decent opponent too

I think it's a good schedule for this team as constituted. Some very tough games and also many OOC games where they can apply what they learn playing those very tough games.

Saw a few USC players at the Texas game yesterday. Told them SMU is going to get them this yr at Moody. They died laughing and said no 20 times . Pretty funny

This is a home and home. We played at their palace.

That seems to be exactly what ECM is alluding to. The fact that we got a H&H for USC is outstanding.

We don't know how things will play out but we will play or could play five teams this season with top 10 capability - Arizona, Villanova, USC, Cincy and Wichita State.

And two of those at least twice. The schedule is certainly good enough to earn an at-large bid if we win the majority of games that we should and a few of the above.
