The first three games are not brutal. Memphis is ranked . We do catch them without Wiseman fortunately. They are the only ranked team in the conference. In the AP poll we don't have one other team even receiving votes. In the USA Today poll WSU got 6 votes. So tough opener. After that it is definitely not brutal . Would have been nice to get ECU in there but that doesn't make it brutal.

“Brutal” in the sense of who we’ve played in regards to our current SOS.
SWAC time will soon end.
Cincy has a #16 RPI. I’ll give you UCONN but we’re not going to beat them on the road. We're looking at 0-4 to start conference.

Agree it's tougher than what we have faced so far. As for RPI this early it's pretty meaningless. As they say that's why they play the games. Looking forward to it.

The computer rankings and top 25 means very little this early. . . We play in a very good league. It wouldn’t surprise me if any Combination of Temple, houston, Cinci, Memphis, Wichita & UConn, UCF Or SMU Made the tourney.

The weaker teams in conference this year are: USF, Tulsa, ECU & likely us.


The net rankings come out soon, that will be a Good baseline.
