Might want to put "basketball" somewhere in your post.

I was thinking football.

We'll have the legends classic of course so that's 2 games out of NC State, Marauette, and Arizona St. LSU should get a home game in the SEC/Big 12 challenge as well. I've heard LSU is also in talks/seeking to add 2 more power 5 conference school for home and homes, no info on what school that may be other than 1 is from the Big 10.

I agree I've been saying why doesn't basketball get on board with some of these football games and piggy back for a game. Think of the possibilities Wisky, Syracuse, Miami, TCU (lol)

Wake wasn't very good last year (nor the last few years for that matter), but hopefully they can improve and at least become a mid-tier ACC team (ala Clemson this year). Probably wouldn't be a marquee win, but it would be much better than beating the Savannah St.'s of the world.

Good to see LSU trying to upgrade the OOC slate. That's at least 3 games vs. power conf. opponents next year. Hopefully LSU competes in the Big 12/SEC challenge next year. If they do, you're probably looking at a home game vs. the likes of Kansas, Baylor, Iowa St., Oklahoma or Texas.

Gotta get tougher Non-Con's if they want to make noise in the Top 25 rankings.

I will be there!

It's time to start adding some better out of conference games. The schedule use to be fun when Dale was around. Go back and look at those in season games LSU use to play, it was awesome.

I think espn will help line up plenty of good non-conference games. I am hoping we get kansas at home for the sec/big12 game later in the year.

Would way rather see kansas in the pmac than watch them on TV in Lawrence.

In the two years of the challenge, most teams do not have to go on the road or host back to back (exceptions are Iowa St hosted in '13 and '14, TCU and Auburn went on the road in '13 and '14), so LSU would host next year. Also, not all SEC teams are chosen because of the number of teams, but with Benny Simmons, I'm pretty sure LSU will be chosen.

If LSU does host a Big XII team who hosted in 2014 (and should be on the road in 2015), our opponent would be either Kansas, Iowa St, Oklahoma, or Texas Tech (I doubt TT because we hosted them this year).

The other 3 teams were either #2 or #3 seeds this year. Of course, KU would generate the most excitement. It was announced in early May last year, so hopefully we'll know in the next 6 weeks.
