That non-conference schedule is a full-blown crapfest.

I mean, every Power 5 program pads its schedule to some degree, but look at these NET rankings from last April:

Doane: NA
Lindenwood: 338
Florida A&M: 359
Rider: 215
Stony Brook: 327
Oregon State: 225
Duquesne: 137
Cal State Fullerton: 126
North Dakota: 277
South Carolina State: 347

Yes, Creighton did finish at 14. But c'mon, Fred - this is downright embarrassing.

EDIT: I overlooked Kansas State (#19). Small bright spot.

I love it personally. Get a bunch more wins on our record and have a decent conference year and you will be knocking at the door.

Knocking on what door? Certainly not the NCAA tourney's door. The selection committee doesn't give a crap about home wins over horrible teams. Their criteria punishes nonsense like this - and it should.

Sorry - I missed Kansas State at #19. (Overlooked it with the conference games around it)

That makes this a little bit less terrible, but not much.

We suck. We need all the wins we can get. We should be hoping for an invite to the NIT before we worry about a weak out of conference schedule keeping us out of the NCAA. Were a long ways from that.

Hell I don't even know who's on our BB team this year. That's how irrelevant we have become.

Lol, this is a bit much. We have the best and deepest team Fred has ever had this year. The NIT should be the minimum expectation.

I'd never heard of Lindenwood. Looked it up. It's a 55 and over retirement community in Cedar Rapids Iowa.
One of the contractual obligations with them is that the game time schedule cannot interfere with Wheel Of Fortune.

Georgia football approves of this for the ENTIRE schedule.

Georgia was supposed to play Oklahoma week 2 of this season

On the schedule for years

When OU joined the SEC they canceled that game. Hard to replace that in ~18 months.

Just adding some context to their schedule this season. Hope this doesn’t send you off the deep end. I know how fragile your mental state is.

Fred doesn’t make the schedule
In year 5 it should be ncaa tourney or we move on

The schedule is padded to get win numbers and a slightly better than .500 record so that “progress” can be cited going into year 6 for Fred

We didn’t get scheduled to play a Big East opponent this year nor did we get a team in the ACC/ B1G challenge.

So not having those two marquee games this year makes the schedule look this way.

The standard is what you know? If that’s the case, we are all f’d.

Oh really? I didn't know. Who returns from last year?
Click to expand...
We definitely lose a lot in Walker, Griesel, and Bando. But everyone else is back, plus Eli Rice and Matar Diop from HS and 6 transfers.

Key returning:
Keisei Tominaga
CJ Wilcher
Sam Hoiberg
Ramel Lloyd Jr
Blaise Keita
Juwan Gary
Jamarques Lawrence

Sucker punch? Hardly. You keep admitting you don’t know what you are talking about, but you always seem to have an opinion. You just always seem really uninformed, which is fine, except for the part where you have an opinion on something you don’t know about. You do you.

Cal St- Fullerton. A school I've meandered by a few times won two ncaa tournament games in 1978. Their only victories.
Which ,of course, is a rousing success compared to the only 0- Fer basketball power 5 program in existence.
Given our track record and our current coach's futile winning pct it may be another generation before we get that albatross off our back.

Perfect schedule! Get 10 wins, then go .500 in conf. We're dancing!

Unless two of those wins are over Creighton and K-State, that would not get Nebraska anywhere near the bubble.

And I don’t even care so much about that. It’s just embarrassing to assemble a schedule that’s designed to do nothing more than pile up meaningless wins against some of the worst programs in the country.

I will give some credit for Oregon State. At least they are a PAC 12 school.
