Post by Pony ^ »

UConn & WSU @ home

Cincy and Tulsa away

Everyone else twice. Our SOS just took a huge hit.

Yeah. Hoping the conference's decision on our games doesn't affect our SOS to the point of keeping us out of the tournament.

With SMU playing Cincinnati, UConn, Tulsa, and Wichita State only once each and a not too strong non conference schedule there are only about 9 or 10 games that SMU could lose. Definitely a coach friendly schedule imo however it came about.

Again.... I hope that we get both waivers. I want our best possible team on the floor. If Jank gets 18-20 wins and gets left out on selection Sunday I don’t want any excuses available to him.

If he gets 20-23 and gets in he most likely saves his bacon. We should get a little boost from the strength of the conference provided the AAC’s OOC results are solid.

Gonna be an interesting year!

There have always been a few one time teams. Larry Brown made sure when he came that we had Memphis, Cincy, UConn, and I believe Houston as 2 game schools to help the SOS

Larry Brown wasn't scared of those schools. He wasn't scared of Louisville or anyone else. Damn, I miss those days.
