We get OSU at home (as opposed to on the road, and on the road at a healthy WI). Douche is an overrated joke, and Washington has no Spencer Hawes (who was there last year). No back-to-back murderers row on the road. We get Georgetown and Louisville at home. Don’t have to go to either one.
I know we have Uconn on the road (assuming their talent shows up), but I think last year was worse.
The OK State game we need to win and the Pete should be rocking for that one no doubt. G’town is another that we need to win so we can shake that label off. I can’t wait to hear about the freshmen. This season could be very fun to watch because the expectations aren’t as high as last year(unless of course you’re a panther basketball player). We’re a dancing team and a potential darkhorse but I wanna see what they do at pre-season practices before I bust a nut.
