B10 Non Con Schedules

[HawkAssassin]

This site has a lot of info for rumored, leaked, confirmed non con schedules. It looks like Iowa only has one spot to fill that’ll probably be for after the Christmas break.

Virginia and ISU are clearly the two toughest teams on our schedule.

For whatever reason, my virus protection does not like that site.

Weird. It’s an .org site and seems fine.

Here’s what Iowa has so far (with last year’s kenpom rating)

11-9 Longwood (247)
11-12 UMKC (203)
11-16 NC Central (330)
11-18 Alabama St (354)
11-22 W Michigan (274)
11-26 Portland St (245)
11-29 @UVA (19)
12-9 @Iowa St (171)
12-18 Utah St (46)
12-21 SE Louisiana (336)

I think it’s a mistake to schedule this soft when Iowa St is in rebuild mode. But it’s Fran’s tendency.

I think this young team needs some gimmes to start with, but I wish there were a few less of those and some more of the Utah State level just before the B10 starts.

Iowa St is in rebuild mode? Isn't that the status quo now?
🙂
Iowa is definitely retooling. They will have to get some teamthat is decent since they don't have the Gavitt Game this year. Hopefully it'll be a home-and-home with a decent team.

I'd add that Utah State should be a decent game in Souix Falls.

I hope they lower the ticket prices with all of these cupcakes on the home schedule. This has got to be one of the softest non-conference schedule in years. We will not have a clue what kind of team we will have against Bis Ten caliber teams. With two games left to schedule I hope Fran at least schedules teams from Power 5 conferences.

Wow playing the Kangaroos again this year. At least will get some local news coverage of that one on the 12th.....

That's a lot of garbage on the non-con schedule.

Agree.
It's not that there are low level offerings, that's expected. Just too many and too low. Playing 3 teams that are #330 or greater just shouldn't happen.

 

[HawkAssassin]

Missed this from earlier, but I guess they’re announcing the B10 schedule today?

 

[HawkAssassin]

So it looks like Western Illinois (kenpom 290) rounds out the non con.

Kind of glad the early conference schedule is tough. Non con is too soft and I don’t want to go to January without knowing the best team we have.
