I’m glad football season is starting soon, but the off-season for roundball is way too long!! Miller & Stretch didn’t play enough in the NBA summer league to satisfy the craving. If football gets spring training and a spring game (which may turn into playing another team in an exhibition soon), then Bball should get a mini summer session of exhibitions or foreign tours (not just every 4 years). MLB everyday helps, but July/August needs some CBB!!

There was a proposal this year for teams to be able to play two summer games, but the NCAA tabled the proposal, I think because of resistance from lower division schools. In a survey, about 75% of players want it and big league coaches want it. Every level of basketball has summer league play, so I would not be surprised if colleges got a summer league too eventually - we may have to ditch the NCAA first, or at least allow the big schools to self determine what we want to do in the summer.

Looked at MSU's roster and they have everybody back. They will be tough.

Not as tough as last years schedule. Probably a good thing with so many new faces. Should start 4-0. I’d say 10-3 at worst with that schedule.

Well one good thing about an easier home schedule…we get to potentially extend that home winning streak to like 22 games heading into SEC play

It really sets up nice. Four easy ones out of the gate. Then a NIT three pack. Easy one against Arkansas St. Then three really good tests to let us know where we are at. Close it out with two easy ones before conference play.

Huh? We play top 15 Creighton, Arizona, and Purdue on the road and likely Oregon in the Thanksgiving tournament if we get by Ohio State. And even "buy" games against Liberty and Eastern Ky, are teams that won their league and made the NCAA tournament. Clemson is no pushover either.

It’s not as tough as last year’s imo. Last year we played UConn who won the national championship, North Carolina, Michigan St., at Houston who was number one at the time, Gonzaga, Memphis, and at Oklahoma.
It’s a good schedule, no doubt, but no way is at as tough as last years.

IMO y'all are splitting hairs a bit. Both last year's and this year's OOC slates are very challenging. I'd lean towards last year being more difficult but we're talking a 1a and 1b kind of thing.

Agree. Oats is all for a tough schedule.
