I mean it's not great but it's not nearly as bad as some of the past schedules. Did we at least fill all our slots?

Tech, Clemson (hopefully), Umass, WV, UAB, and Southern Miss are all decent games.

Lsu typically fails at scheduling good home opponents accross the board. At least they try to come up with excuses for poor non-conference home schedules in football & baseball. They are mostly BS, but they still come up with excuses. Football - nobody wants to play in tiger stadium. Baseball - the SEC is so good, there is no need for a strong non-conference schedule. Basketball - they have no excuse. I honestly believe that whoever is in charge of making schedules is either completely lazy or has no negotiating skills whatsoever. The terrible thing is is that fans are actually getting excited about bball and considering buying season tickets, but as soon as they release such a terrible non-conference home schedule those fans go back to just buying single game tickets. Lsu really needs to rethink who they assign to work on these schedules, because whoever does it now is incompetent and not deserving of the position.

I would have liked to have seen y'all play a tougher schedule, but as long as you win these games, your RPI will still be decent before SEC play. Just avoid the terrible losses that Alabama can never seem to do.

I hope the home game vs. Florida won't be a really early tip, unless CBS on ESPN1 picks it up.

From what I read, LSU is more highly thought of for the coming season than any of their ooc opponents which is a bit disappointing. Should make for a lot of wins but they'll need to pull a couple of upsets in conference to move up the pecking order for the dance once again. Oh well.

Pretty terrible OOC home schedule, even by LSU basketball standards which manages to specialize in Rhode Island and the like.

9 games on ESPN/ESPN2 so far, not including UMass which will probably be on ESPN. Also, home vs. Florida on CBS.

This team will have a number of opportunities to make a splash on the national stage. Let's hope they take advantage.
