Analysis of the Big East's top 25 nonconference games

Only one stinkin' UConn game in there. And it's friggin' Harvard. Harvard?! How did UConn go from one of the best non-conference slates to one of the worst in a year?

It really is rather remarkable how much weaker our OOC schedule is this season.

Yeah, it's pretty awful. I think Arkansas will be a tough game.

Other notes:

• St. Johns plays Duke, UCLA, Arizona, and Kentucky??? Wow- that is a crazy ooc lineup.
• Pitt vs Tennessee and not Uconn vs Tennessee confused
• Lots of games for the big east to prove themselves once again.

I guess JC wasn't as confident as us about how the returning team plus the Boat show would do this season.

I bet he would have looked for better competition if he knew DD and AD were dressing this season.

I wish they could defer one or more of the mid or low majors for another year and replace them with a big boy or two. They've changed things up before, but I'm assuming it's too late now.

 

[Scot-e]

We thought we were going to suck.

I wish we had a stronger schedule but we are pulling a "Dookie" this year and playing no one that has any right beating us OOC.

Guess JC stole one out of coach K's handbook?

 

[tcf15]

At least we have some great competition in our league, something that Duke and UNC can't really say.

JC & RP will tell you Cincinnati is the BE sleeper pick to do some damage.
