Quality opponents in: Louisville and Georgetown on the Road, SMU- Pitt and Butler at Home.
The rest are too weak to help. They may add W's to the record but we gain no real value from them beyond game setting minutes to gain confidence and experience.
Last year we lost to Uconn, Syracuse and ND and had best non-con wins vs Evansville and Wash.Those 2 were not very impressive.
This year we must get better non-con wins out of these 5. Hoyas on the road and SMU-Pitt at home look like opportunities to improve the resume. Butler at Home feels like a must win to get back to the dance. Loss to Louisville on the road won't hurt us. A Good loss probably better than one more sub 200 RPI win.
Of course .500 or better in B1G is assumed for an NCAA dance card.
