Last year was a big step up in the non-con scheduling portion. Hope to see that continue this year. Tennessee's is starting to slowly leak out.
2015-16
Barclays Center Classic (Cincinnati, Tennessee, Nebraska, George Washington)
@ Gonzaga (Key Arena, Seattle)
@ Butler
@ Georgia Tech
SEC/B12 Challenge Road Game
ETSU
2016-17
Maui Invitational (UConn, Georgetown, UNC, OK State, Oregon, Tennessee, Wisconsin, Chaminade)
@ North Carolina*
Gonzaga (Bridgestona Arena, Nashville)
SEC/B12 Challenge Home Game
Georgia Tech
@ ETSU
*Tennessee is also finalizing a home and home with North Carolina, according to Barnes and that series is expected to begin next season although the years have not been announced. There have also been reports that games with Maryland and Michigan State are close to being announced. It's expected the Maryland series could start as soon as this season.

@Arizona
@Xavier
Illinois(St. Louis)
NC State
Big 12 matchup
2 of UNC/KSU/Northwestern
Pretty sure that is 6 or 7 losses in the noncon for Mizzou.

LSU is playing some kind of classic over Thanksgiving at Barclay in Brooklyn
Supposedly LSU has a home and home with some ACC school not announced yet
Memphis trying to get on LSU schedule
I think Texas is being rumored as well somewhere down the line

We only know a few right now. We are opening at Navy as part of the Veterans Classic. St Joes, Purdue or Old Dominion, Vermont and FSU.
Before Donovan left we were in talks with Michigan State, don't know if we will look to schedule that hard in White's first year.

Currently, LSU seems to be doing their best to compile a shitty OOC schedule
2 games against two of these 3 teams in Brooklyn (Marquette, Arizona State and N.C. State)
Preceded by 2 home games against 2 of this group of juggernauts (South Alabama, Belmont, Kennesaw State and IUPUI) as part of the Brooklyn tournament
It likely won't be S. Alabama though because they are already on LSU's schedule separate from the Brooklyn tournament.
If that's not enough excitement, LSU also plays Wake Forest and Gardner-Webb at home. They also make a trip to the always difficult College of Charleston!!!
To top it all off, LSU just agreed to a 4 year series with Houston starting this upcoming season!!! (Too bad this isn't 1984)
There are also rumors that LSU is looking to add Memphis to the schedule
Assuming LSU will also play at least 1 or 2 in-state schools, the OOC RPI should be sufficiently in the gutter.

Haven't seen anything for 'Bama's schedule yet. Since the hire of CAJ though, I've been anticipating it.

we are going to be in the bahamas with charlotte, michigan, UCONN, gonzaga, syracuse, texas, and washington

Dude you sound very negative for no reason. We will play a good big 12 team. Wake forest is suppose to a lot better next year. We will get two good games in the legends classic. Houston wasn't very good last year still better than the instate games. Gardner-Webb wasn't that bad of a team last year and actually helped our rpi. If we get Memphis then that will be our best non-conference schedule in a while not even mentioning somebody we don't even know about yet. When was the last time we played 5 or 6 major conference teams in non-conference? Plus rpi is just as much if not more about filling your schedule with teams in that 50 to 150 range as it is about scheduling a bunch of top 50 teams. You just have to avoid playing those teams 150 or worse.
