Do we know conference opponents next year?

[Drew]

Home/Away? I'm assuming we don't play everyone twice since there's 11 of us correct?

 

[aburks41]

most definitely a home/away with Memphis, Cincy, Temple, SMU because they are the only good programs and we need to play them twice.. everyone else is crap

 

[babysheep]

Memphis, Cincy, Temple, SMU because they are the only good programs

I can't believe we actually have to say this now and for the foreseeable future.

I wouldn't consider Tulsa to be crap.

 

[Fishy]

I wouldn't consider Tulsa to be crap.

They're mostly crap.

Historically, they're crap. They might not be complete crap next year, but over the long term, they're crap.

Tulsa is garbage. I would rather play Seton Hall and Depaul than Tulsa. Oh well, we should go undefeated or have 1 loss to SMU next season in conference play

 

[dsturdy5]

Do we even know who the heck is in the league next year? I thought the AAC had open enrollment.

 

[Huskyforlife]

Who's in our conference next year?

Well then your not looking out for UConn's RPI.

Tulsa's RPI was 70, Depaul and Seton Hall were 154 and 130 respectively. And these were better numbers then the year before for them.

So my guess is you do not know much about Tulsa, or DePaul or Seton Hall.

Yes because the rpi is what crowns a champion. It obviously can't mean too much if we got a freaking 7 seed this year and still won the whole thing

This post makes zero sense unless you unaware of how the RPI and NCAA seeding works.

The better RPI teams we play the better it is for our SOS and RPI. Thus, better for UConn. Not tough stuff here.

But sure lets play Depaul.

owwwwww, poor thing...bless your heart

Next season should go: SMU, UConn, Memphis, Cincy, Tulsa, Houston, Temple...in that order.

Ask SMU if the RPI matters.

Not sure if serious.

This is what I am afraid of. The NCAA has tried everything to keep us down. Could they ever go so far as to just not give us a bid?

It will be a 3 bid league next year. SMU, UConn and one more. Cincinnati is losing three very important players and Memphis could only manage an 8 seed with 4 senior guards, considering Pastner's coaching ability they are looking at the NIT.

My feeling is that it will be a four bid league with UConn, SMU, Cincy, and Memphis. I know Cincinnati loses a ton but Cronin is too good of a coach, I think they find a way to get in. And even with the departures in the back court, Goodwin and Nichols is a pretty formidable front line.

Houston is losing a lot...Thomas and House (their two leading scorers), have both transferred.

I agree...4 NCAAs, Tulsa makes the NIT

Big talk from a team that didn't win a single NCAA game last season...oh, those Ivy League schools.

Memphis, you have to understand where UConn has been (Big East) to the conference where we are in (AAC) to the conference where we desire to be (B1G).
Yeah, we know, we have to play the hand we are dealt, (AAC) but, that doesn't mean we cannot dream. (B1G)
