Can't figure out a way to copy and paste it.

BTW, why are we allowed 3 exhibition games? I thought 2 was the max.

Football AND Basketball in Ft Fudd? WTF?

Trip to Carolina is cool, though.

Oh, it gets worse. Our Cowgirls basketball team also has to go to Fort Fart this year. So, ALL three squads (FB, MBB, & WBB) have to go to Fort Collins in 2026-27.

I'm pretty sure the NCAA increased the maximum exhibition games allowed from two to three starting this season.

Two of those games (Northern Colorado and TCU) are our best non-conference games outside of the "tournament" games at the Sunshine Slam.

The TCU game in Midland is an interesting one. I have no clue why TCU would want the game in Midland and not at their home arena in Fort Worth. Maybe they are treating the game as a run through for playing on the road?

It is a pretty solid schedule Coach Wicks put together

Great job, Tom.

Our Best non-con game is North Carolina.

Our Best non-con game is North Carolina.

No. That is our best opponent. They will slaughter us and it will do absolutely nothing to get us ready for the conference season.

The best non-conference games, in my opinion, are against teams at the same level or slightly better than you on a neutral court.

I'll go over this on the pod, but our best non-conference games are, in order:

1. @ the sheep
2. home vs. Sam Houston St.
3. neutral vs. Kent State

Similar to slightly-better teams in 3 different environments. As TheRealUW stated, North Carolina is a good road trip for fans, but they're going to kick the shit out of the Cowboys. Still, it's a good measuring stick to really highlight the team's weaknesses so the coaches know where they need to focus most. It's also very advantageous that we have an exhibition game against TCU. They were very similar in record to the Tar Heels last year in a very good league. The coaches will want to make their assessments against the Frogs and see how well the adjustments work against NC.
