Non Conference schedule for next year?

The Colgate game is Breanna Stewart's home game. Syracuse refused to play UConn.

For the game against Colgate, UConn better "brush up" on their skills or their will be holes in their game.

Does anyone have an idea of when they will announce the South Carolina date/time? I'm saving up my Southwest Frequent Flyer miles for this game-anyone else going down? Will be one of the best games of the season!!

As lond as we don't have to play Dayton in Dayton we should do ok.

Two-year series with Nebraska officially announced by Connie Yori.

No, it will be a great experience for us to play the best team in the country at their place. It will be an opportunity to learn a lot from that experience."

Yet another coach looking for a "learning experience" playing UConn.

How often do losses lead a team to learn anything? I know UConn learned from it's Standford loss, and a few years back UConn schooled Stanford in a pre-season tournament only to end up losing to them in the tournament. Other than those two I just haven't seen it. I think Duke stopped scheduling us because they realized they weren't smart enough to learn from a loss.

Well, they learned to stop playing UConn, so that's something...

The Notre Dame game will be on Saturday Dec 5th. The game against FSU shortly after on the 11th. South Carolina will again be in February on an undetermined date.

The 2016-17 game against Texas will be at the Mohegan Sun.

Good, well coached teams learn a lot from loses to other good well coached teams - it may not lead to them beating the same team later in the year (the winning team may just be better), but it can focus a coach and players on weakness that can be corrected (or hidden/compensated for) and were not exposed or did not hurt against weaker teams in easy victories.

And for weaker and especially younger teams it can be eye opening in terms of setting a bar at which to aim.
