Oklahoma bigs: Cole 6' 7" 235 .3 ppg., Lattin 6' 9" 201 2.0 ppg., Mankin 6' 7" 201 .2 ppg., Spangler 6' 8" 235 9.7 ppg., Buford 6' 7" Freshman, Manyang 7' 0" 235 Indian Hills Transfer, and McNeace 6' 10" 202 Freshman. Sooners rely on their guards. Althon ranks them 9th pre season.

UNI plays Oklahoma this season too?
Your non-conf schedule has got to rank one of the toughest in the nation.

Oklahoma is a participant in the Diamond Head classic. There is a chance that we will meet up in a game.

If we beat Hawaii and they beat Washington State, we play in the semis. It's very, very likely we play them...

Re: Looking at 2015-2016

Never underestimate the officiating in Hawaii when facing Hawaii. Those officials want the call to return to the islands too! It's a bad matchup for UNI. Hopefully the result favors us.

They almost (should have) beaten Wichita when they played out there last year.

Re: Looking at 2015-2016

Hawaii is picked 4th in the Big West. They rely on guards. Jankovic 6' 11' 235 10.6 ppg, Jovanovic 6' 11' 235 reserve, Thomas 6' 7" 210 reserve.

BYU relies on guards. The Cougars are picked 2nd in WCC and into the NIT. Austin 6' 11" 230 3.0 ppg., Aytes 6' 6" 225 injured last season, Kaufusi 6' 10" 245 2.3 ppg., Davis 6' 8" 220 Utah State transfer, Hartsock 6' 8" 205 Freshman, and Shaw 6' 8" 210 Freshman. Davis is eligible this season.

Auburn is projected 11th in the SEC and into NIT. Bowers 6' 7" 260 12.1 ppg., Granger 6' 8" 220 4.9 ppg., Reed 7' 2" 245 1.1 ppg., Harris 6' 10" 228 Graduate Transfer from Providence 9.9 ppg. in Big East play, Purffoy 6' 7" 210 Freshman, Spencer 6' 9" 220 Freshman. Harris is eligible this season.

UNC: Hicks 6' 8" 230 6.6 ppg., Jackson 6' 8" 193 10.7 ppg., James 6' 10" 280 2.5 ppg., Johnson 6' 9" 228 12.9 ppg., Meeks 6' 9" 265 11.4 ppg., and Meyer 6' 7" 227 Freshman. We're using Koch and Freidman???? Twenty point beat down. Even with McDonnell we lose by a bunch. Tar Heels ranked 3rd pre season. Heaven help us!

Are you going to post the size of every team we play in an effort to prove your point? Like you said, even if McDonnell plays, we likely lose, so why burn a year of eligibility for 3 games while Carlson is suspended? Here's another roster for you, let me know how that game turned out?

Cole Aldrich 7'
Marcus and Markief Morris 6'10"
Thomas Robinson 6'10"
Jeff Withey 7'

UNI primarily relied on A. Koch and Egelseder as big guys. Remember, O'Rear is only 6'5", so he's not a big man in your book.

11th of 14 teams in conference and NIT qualifier - that seems in line

Re: Looking at 2015-2016

Harvard is a guard oriented team. The Crimson are picked 2nd in the Ivy league. Okolie 6' 8" 205 4.3 ppg., Edoronmauan 6' 9" 245 4.0 ppg., Cummins 6' 8" 215 2.4ppg., Egi 6' 9" 215 1.0 ppg., perez 6' 6" 220 Freshman, Dragovic 6' 10" 220 Freshman.

Lucas had the quickness/desire to overcome the size disadvantage. Marvin was a similar player. The point is we need to rebound against this schedule. We had four bigs in 2010. A. Koch, Egelseder, O'Rear, and J. Koch. Are you ever going to get past 2010?

I agree. Athlon has Auburn in the NIT. One opinion only.
