This would actually count as TWO wins, eh?

Speaking of OOC opponents, I thought it would be interesting to now look at those teams to see who has done the best (record only), which was truly our best win and which was our worst loss.

Here is where they stand at the moment:            Lindy's Predicted Finish

IPFW                     21-7         1st in Summit                           4th

Oregon                  20-6         2nd in PAC-12                           5th

Belmont                19-9          1st in their div,. of the OVC       1st

Ball State              17-9          1st in their div., of the MAC      last

Oregon State        15-9           8th in the PAC-12                    6th

Iona                     15-10         2nd in the MAAC                      1st

Rhode Island        14-12         8th in the A-10                         2nd

Indiana State       13-14         6th in the Valley                        6th

Missouri State      11-16         7th in the Valley                        7th

Chicago State        4-24         Last in the WAC                         last

So, on record alone our best win was against IPFW and our worst loss was to (not counting Wright State) Ball State.  Many were ready to jump out of a window after that loss but Ball State is playing much better than predicted.  Rhode Island would have been much better with EC Matthews but then again perhaps we wouldn't have won that game with him on the floor.

Five teams either in 1st or 2nd in their conference races.  Not to shabby.

And Oregon St. while 8th is still on the bubble for an at large bid to the NCAA tourney. We have wins over 2 NCAA teams right now with a potential 3rd. I'd say that's solid OOC scheduling.
