Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 4042111, member: 5798"] I think there was some rumblings about a game with Texas. Vic Schaefer needs one more year to get more of HIS players on roster. I really don't think he wants to play UConn right now. Next year maybe. It would be a good match-up for both teams. Perhaps a two game Texas road trip with them and Baylor could work. They could return the favor the next year by coming to Storrs. Same with Kim Mulkey at LSU who has been "jettisoning" the dead weight from her roster since taking over, and working the portal to piece together a team she can work with. The Tigers will be decent this year, probably ranked somewhere between 25-40. But not nearly as good as they'll be in two years. THAT'S when you'll want to schedule LSU, who I expect will be top 25 for sure by then. Mulkey is not going to waste any time getting her new program up to speed. I'm very impressed with the schedule of "quality" out of conference (OOC) opponents Geno was able to assemble this year. UConn will be tested early. Three games in the Bahamas, then two road games: @ Georgia Tech (ONO's homecoming game), then UCLA (17-6 last year) at the Prudential Center in New Jersey. Road games build character, or reveal it. I think UConn enters the game with Louisville on December 19 at the Mohegan Sun Arena undefeated. Most questions about this team should be answered after the UCLA game. All questions and concerns will be answered after the South Carolina game, but that game may not be played until February. Geno should have a pretty good idea of what he has by the holiday break. I also look for UConn go undefeated again this year in conference play. UConn will get some good games in conference, but nothing they can't handle. [/QUOTE]
