UNC Wilmington could be decent maybe?

[DaveHuskiesFan]

Yikes. That’s an awful home slate. Nobody projected to be ranked above 200th.

 

[Storrs South]

This is a step in the right direction. There is a room for improvement, but much better than last season.

Oklahoma State isn't projected to be in the top 200? I'm calling bull on that.

 

[methodology]

Only 1 OOC away game @ Florida unless you count oregon

Hope that doesn’t come back to bite them come selection Sunday

That’s one really small step

 

[Big East Fa]

The school hikes up the cost of tickets and the reward is 6 buy games.

 

[Lefty2one]

Stonehill, eh? Is anyone not DI these days?

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Wrong.

Buffalo and UNC-Wilmington are decent teams.

I believe Oklahoma State is ranked above #200 too (joke).

First season in the NEC.

We're not in the AAC anymore.

 

[UCFan1513]

Buffalo is a great surprise, and only Stonehill (D2) and Deleware St are sub-300. Much better than last year. 6 of 11 games likely against top 100 teams, with UNC Wilmington top 150 - so only 4 real cupcakes

 

[Dooooooomed]

For a much more compelling slate vs low/mid-majors, swap out Stonehill for CCSU, BU for Harvard, Delaware State for Vermont, and Long Island for Syracuse.

 

[bendm]

would have liked a good home game before facing orgeon in the PKI that's a must win. i dont care if we lose the second game we just need to get into the winner's bracket.

First season in the NEC.

You’re right I missed Ok St at home. UNC Wilmington is projected to be #204 this year and Buffalo #245.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Everyone who has been begging for a decent local midmajor game isn’t allowed to complain about Buffalo

 

[REB1094]

All of these teams from 2022 final Kenpom:

Stonehill - lol
Boston University - 214 (Q4)
Buffalo - 130 (Q3)
UNC Wilmington - 146 (Q3)
Delaware St - 356 (Q4)
Oregon - 80 (Q2)
Alabama - 28 (Q1) or Michigan St - 42 (Q1)
Oklahoma State - 34 (Q1)
Florida - 59 (Q1)

Our resume and seeding the last two seasons were bolstered by a huge OOC win. Looks like the PK Invitational is our only chance to grab one of those wins. Gotta get into the winners bracket

Too early to get myself hopeful for 3 Q1 wins and a PKI championship?

Compared to last year’s it’s an improvement. We had 5 games against 290+ teams(!!) Still doesn’t move the needle though, they need to continue to make scheduling a priority.

CCSU - 346
Coppin St - 300
LIU - 235
Binghamton - 290
Auburn - 12
MSU - 42
VCU - 63
Maryland Eastern Shore - 313
Grambling St. - 303
WVU - 66
St. Bonaventure - 78

Pre PKI is brutal

It is still ew. We should be playing 7 major conference opponents OOC, not 5. Buffalo and BU are decent mid majors but the rest leave a lot to be desired.

 

[Eardoc]

And for that home schedule they raised their prices for season ticket holders? The athletic department should be ashamed. SMH

 

[How Sway?!]

If it had another regional mid major team like Yale/Harvard/Iona and such it would be an 8 out of 10.
