next season's schedule already falling together

[coolm]

Oklahoma will open next season on the road at UT Rio Grande Valley and UTSA (per John Rothstein).

Both schools coached by former Lon Kruger assistants --- Lew Hill and Steve Henson.

Interesting! Power 5 schools don’t usually play smaller schools like UTRGV and UTSA on their home floor. Clearly a favor from Lon to his former assistants.

He might not be so generous in the future if one or both upsets OU.

I like it. For the most part, our fans aren't interested in showing up to games against the cupcakes in non-con. Go get some experience on the road instead of beating an outmatched opponent in front of 3000 fans at home.

One of them is opening a new gym.

Spouse and I will be there. Right now that field looks very daunting. We need a few good pick ups tomorrow to make us competitive.

From what I heard during the season, the WSU game is a sure thing, I think the schools agreed to two more years of the series. Not sure whether they will be on campus or in OKC and the downtown Wichita arena.

Don't they have a returnn game with Northwestern?

Good thing I have a tornado shelter.

Yep, good catch, that was also a home-and-home.

This is really good scheduling.
You can finish around 500% in conference if you have a decent non-conference record and that will get you the NCAAs

You have to win some/most of those OOC games. Playing good teams and losing doesn't really help.

That'll be something close to a Notre Dame home game, crowd-wise.
