Brutal!

12-0 and your record still look bad…you must win conference tourney to get to NCAA…

Looks just like the schedule Billy (whatever his last name was) had every year at a$m…except all of Billy’s non conference games were at home. He would go 15-0, then maybe 0.500 in big12 and make it to the tournament.

Perception…Perception.

How does UConn schedule all of these schools when they haven’t even won the AAC yet?

Why can’t we schedule any school on the East Coast?

It’s pretty sad that the only Big 12 school we can schedule is OK State. What a bunch of wimps!

Thanks for posting. That’s a strong schedule.

I just can’t understand why we can’t get big 12 games against tech or Baylor who we had an exhibition against last year. Not at all saying it’s our fault.

19

I don’t know… Only excuse is recruiting
