[shocks02]

Air Force? Air Force?! Why don't we get SDSU, UNLV, New Mexico or even Colorado State?

Air Force? Air Force?! Why don't we get SDSU, UNLV, New Mexico or even Colorado State?

because remember, we are going to be a play in team

[SubGod22]

Air Force? I was expecting CSU. I get that we can't play someone we already played, but AFA shouldn't have been the team. They should have been left for Bradley/Drake/Evansville/SIU/MSU. Which ever one hadn't already played them.

I am sure the thought process driving the selection of match-ups is that WSU will have a rebuilding year and be a mid-tier MVC team. We are excited about next year, but much of that excitement has been generated over the past few weeks and probably was not a factor in the “seeding.”

Even if we are a mid-tier team, this is a horrible pairing. AFA was bad, and not expected to get much better. Both CSU and Wyoming would have been better options. AFA may finish last in the MWC. They'll compete for it.

Well I am a little dissapointed, but I believe Air Force is closer to my house than CSU is. Im just excited to be able to go to a game and sleep in my own bed afterwards! Go Shocks

[Ta town]

so far for non-con games besides the tourney:

home: Tulsa,

away: VCU, AFA, Manhattan

any other known opponents?

[choida]

Just WIN and the rest will take care of itself!! We play in one of the early season tournys, so we will have a few chances to shock the world and boost our resume. Last year we lost to Alabama and Temple, which would have helped our cause come seeding time, but that's the past. The only thing we need to worry about Air Force, is well, beating them. Everyone else thinks we are rebuilding, but everyone hear knows and truly believes we are reloading, and will be a force to be reckoned with come MVC time.

Do we still play VCU, since the Colonial has opted out of Bracket Busters?

[Ta town]

This schedule will be good for this team. I think some might be expecting a little too much. There will be a lot of talent but it will take a little while for everybody to figure out their role and what is needed to compete at the D1 level. I think the somewhat lessor tourney in Mexico and the teams scheduled so far is exactly what this team full of new faces will need.

[shocks02]

Do we still play VCU, since the Colonial has opted out of Bracket Busters?

I am almost positive they have to play the return game.

[rrshock]

I am almost positive they have to play the return game.

I am too.

[cjp27]

I am almost positive they have to play the return game.

I hope you are right. I'd rather see us do a yearly game against VCU or George Mason and just forget Bracket Busters.

[choida]

why not Drexel? Do we have to get beat by a team twice before people here wanna play them on a yearly basis?> just sayin...

[SubGod22]

BracketBuster will die after this next year. VCU does still play us. Elgin needs to get on the MVC/CAA Challenge.
