KSTATE, Oregon, MTSU, Dayton and WKU should all be pretty decent. Our RPI shouldn't be holding us back this year if we can win a couple of those.

To add to what's already been said, Mercer should be a decent team to play as well. They beat Alabama, Tennessee (NIT), and Florida State last season.

Seems like a decent enough OOC schedule. Manageable in terms of wins and enough to raise the RPI. Hopefully the conference as a whole will be improved this season with some of the classes brought in too.

Not really sure about the East, but the West will probably be worse next year overall.

Can Mississippi State get any worse?

Ole Miss will probably have a drop off without Holloway and Buckner. LSU should be better with JOB returning and pulling a really solid class. Alabama is a dumpster fire right now, but they weren't all that great last season either. A&M will be about the same. Arkansas will likely improve. Auburn will likely be about the same.

I think you see some improvement in the old West division. The East will be strong though. Tennessee should be solid and will have Maynard returning with strength in the post to go with Stokes. Florida is bringing in a good class and they'll be very good. I think we'll be significantly improved from last season. Mizzou won't be as strong as last season but still decent. South Carolina will be improved in Martin's 2nd year IMO. Georgia will hurt without KCP. Vanderbilt made a strong push at the end of the season and is returning everyone so they'll be improved.

The conference will be improved as a whole.

Replacing Elston Turner will be tough for A&M.

I can dig this schedule. Lots of potential for big wins to make us look better.

Going to that Oregon seems pretty attractive. Esp. if they bring their cheerleaders. :D
