[WuShock Reaper]

Just as a comparison, Wichita State versus the entire MVC in regular season broadcast games:

CBS or CBS Sports Network
Entire MVC = 8 games
WSU = 12 games

I noticed that we only have 12 non-con games again, aren't we supposed to have 13?

Nope. There are 28 dates for teams to schedule. One of those dates can be an exempt tourney which can be from 2-4 games. The Charleston Classic is only an 8 team main bracket so, just 3 games in the tournament, leading to a 30 game schedule.

Oklahoma State for the closed scrimmage per Kansas.com / Taylor....

Should make it open... And donate everything to charity

Does anyone know anything about this event or did she (Sister Jean) mean to say Winona State

"...For anyone planning to attend Loyola’s opening exhibition game against Wichita State, she has some advice: “You’re going to have to come early because the Gentile (Arena) is going to be packed,..”

[Wuzee]

She meant Winona.

Here’s why WSU has the strongest nonconference schedule in the American

[another shocker]

quadrant 1, 2, 3 and 4. is that the new rpi bullschitt? you know, being in a p-5 guarantees a q1 schedule

[AZ Shocker]

That's some good 'ole research right there. This Taylor young man has got it going BIG-TIME!!! Glad he's a Big-Time Shocker fan!!!

[Shocker1976]

An excellent expose by Taylor of why the Shockers playing in the AAC is vastly superior to the current MVC. I can not wait for this season to unfold; I am hopeful we Shocker fans will be pleasantly surprised with how well the Shockers play.

quadrant 1, 2, 3 and 4. is that the new rpi bullschitt? you know, being in a p-5 guarantees a q1 schedule

The Quadrant system which if you don't know goes like this:

Quadrant 1: Home 1-30; Neutral 1-50; Away 1-75
Quadrant 2: Home 31-75; Neutral 51-100; Away 76-135
Quadrant 3: Home 76-160; Neutral 101-200; Away 136-240
Quadrant 4: Home 161-plus; Neutral 201-plus; Away 241-plus.

Last year, the Sel. Committee used RPI as the rank for these. Now, it is using it's new NET rating system, but the same quadrants.
