Hints about BYU on the BYU thread. People are just guessing, but their coach talked about an exciting non con opponent for the season opener, and USD was the first guess. South Dakota? Certainly they are not adding San Diego, who they play twice every year in con? They aren’t in the same conference anymore lmao

Hope that USD has some strong non-conference home games this year. Went to the Utah and UCLA games last season and had a blast! Would love to see a Big 10 team make the journey out here.

It looks like they will play Northwestern in the Hawaii tournament, so that is one Big 10 team. I would love to see how they play against your 6'7' and 6'9' Wisconsin block and Penn St's transfers. Nebraska, PSU and Wisconsin may be three of the Final Four teams this year. We know the Toreros have Oregon, Hawaii and Northwestern in Honolulu. One other game may be in the UCSD tournament in the TBD spot.

Sighhhh…SDSU schedule is out. Not USD. Just unacceptable. From other schedules that have come out, I’m seeing non-cons with Hawaii, Northwestern, and U Oregon. I like that scheduling so far. I wonder about that too. First off, they probably want the biggest supporters to get the news before anyone else. Next, it could be they are still negotiating with some high RPI opponents. Would love to see multiple, pre-season top ten matches. Maybe even 6'6", 6'5" Stanford. What a war that would be!

They grabbed a couple of good players from the portal and should be a decent opponent. Wisconsin, Nebraska, Minnesota, and Ohio State already have their pre-conference schedules out so no luck there. Holding out hope that we can get one of Penn State, Illinois or Purdue out here. Would be interesting to see how this year’s lineup does against a top-tier Big 10 opponent.

When schedules aren't out at this point 99% of the time it is one of three things - 1) a contract hasn't been finalized somewhere in the process (could be either school), 2) administrators aren't allowing the schedule to be posted 3) SID and/or coaching staff has more important things on their plate and haven't gotten around to putting the information/post together for publication.

Is that a USC tournament? Any other known teams?

Not sure about other teams. Thank you usdfan... I was hoping that when Texas visits LBSU that we might be part of that or another SoCal tourney with them. Stanford goes to Austin in the Fall. Looks like we will have to earn our way to rematches with either or both in the NCAA tourney.

Hey eyeroll, I see where the two Texas games and Oklahoma's single game are played in Austin and Norman respectively. Seems like a smart move to me. Playing at altitude can ruin a teams season. I have been curious about how Texas will do without Logan Eggleston. I know your team is loaded, but is there someone with her refuse to lose willpower? After the Final Four first set, she is the one who took over the game. (My opinion) Repeats are usually because the same personnel return. Good luck this year!
