2023-2024 Schedule

[Lobot]

Final 2023 KenPom ranking for each team is listed above. Average ranking is 189.

I'd like to see the final game be a road game (of a future home and home) with a top half Big Ten/ACC/SEC program.

Well done. What on earth happened to Evansville? They used to be one of those smaller programs that you didn't want to play.

[Carthage World]

Add Stetson to the list. One game left to play. While there are decent sounding "buy games," would be nice to add one more top 25-50 type opponent.

When I read ACC team inks home/home with UC, I was hoping for almost any other team. I worry we aren’t playing anyone in non-con to get us ready.

Jon Rothstein reporting UC will host Georgia Tech at home this season, return game the following year https://collegehoops.today/rothstein...h-third-arena/

Georgia Tech finished 15-18 a year ago, ahead of just Notre Dame and Louisville in the ACC. They fired Josh Pastner and brought in former NBA veteran Damon Stoudamire.

They return four of their top five scorers and brought in six transfers -- including former top 50 recruit Kowacie Reeves (averaged 8.5 ppg as a sophomore at Florida).

Look: UC Basketball Reveals Inaugural Big 12 Opponent Slate (msn.com)
"The Big 12 was the only conference in all of college basketball to have all teams be net positive in adj O-rating & D-rating vs the national averages. Reigns true even with their 4 new members for this year (UH, UCF, BYU, Cincy). Best conference in the country got even better."

So this year's home conference schedule opponents include a #1 seed in the 2023 NCAA Tournament (Houston), a 2 seed that lost in the Elite Eight (Texas), a 3 seed that lost in the Elite Eight (Kansas State), and two 6 seeds (TCU, Iowa State) + WVU was in the tournament.

And the 2022 & 2021 National Champs away in Kansas & Baylor. Not quite the American but what the heck.
