Interesting.

OK State would be a good RPI boost, or should be.

Oregon State and Tulsa both have new coaches, Tulsa was decent last year, Oregon State was garbage.

Any combination of games, if it isn't round robin, should not hurt the RPI/SOS.

I love the pre-conference BB tournaments. Sounds like a great excuse to make a Vegas trip.

Pearl has gone out and scheduled a much more difficult OOC schedule than what we had under Barbee. It isn't a UK or UF type schedule but it isn't an embarrassment like the last few years have been.

So far we have:

TBA: at Colorado
Nov. 14: Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Nov. 14
Nov. 24/26: Two games vs. Oklahoma State, Oregon State or Tulsa
TBA: Xavier
TBA: Louisiana Lafayette
TBA: Texas Southern
Dec. 3: at Texas Tech
TBA: at Clemson
Dec. 29: Middle Tennessee

Coastal Carolina, Texas Southern and @Gonazaga are the other games we are trying to get
finalized to finish out our OOC schedule.

Wis-Mil, ULL, Tx Southern, and Middle Tennessee weren't huge RPI bumps last season, they are good top 150 teams which only helps if they are placed sub 150 teams.

Either way, Auburn and Ms. State need to do better in the OOC, our RPI dropped just from playing you last year.

Why do you think they are adding an additional rivalry game? The SEC wants to improve our basketball reputation.
