I was taking a quick peak at the schedule, and I gotta say it sets up nicely for what our team is. These numbers are from barttorvik (like kenpom only a free site with equations a bit different). We only play 2 teams the rest of the way with a defense in the top 70, Mississippi St. and UCF.
2 others looked like they could potentially give our offense trouble and thats UNLV and Temple. UNLV is 23rd in the country at defending 2 point shots, and Temple is 9th in the country at preventing offensive rebounds.
With us being able to patchwork the offense and get some production from the bigs, i think our season can set up nicely for us. I was pretty concerned about our offense against solid defenses, but if we don't really play any then it won't be a problem.
