Home OOC schedule is awful. I don't like to bitch about the schedule too much, but kind of pissed about this one.

I hope the remaining OOC game to be announced later is a home game and is a doozy!

if its in the middle of the conference season then it will probably be a D2 game.

I'm wondering when was the last time Creighton had a worst non conference schedule at home?
8 home games with an average RPI from last year of 186.6.
Nebraska is the only team from the Power 5 football conferences.
UT Arlington, RPI #45
Nebraska, #108
Yale, #128
N. Dakota, #144
Alcorn St. #228
USC Upstate #229
Maryland Eastern Shore, #278
SIU Edwardsville, #333
At least there is only one team over #300.
To be fair, Creighton's non Conference away and neutral site games are fantastic.

Outside of the skers, not one home game is a home and home series. We pay a lot of fing money for these tickets. Freaking ridiculous. Yes, the neutral and road slate is very difficult; big fing deal. UNO has a tough road slate every year as well.

The OOO home schedule last year also sucked, outside of the Gavitt Game against Wisconsin.

The home schedule once again is loaded with cupcakes. However, focusing on the positive, at least Mac and Ras are attempting to add some quality home/away series such as the Zags. I guess baby steps, but enough of the home cupcakes year after year. One or two okay, but four, Edwardsville, Alcorn, USC Upstate, and East Shore are terrible.

Games away from the Clink are amazing. Games at home, not so much. Downright bad really. Games against Yale, UTA and Nebraska are fine and needed. But do we need UMES, Upstate, Edwardsville, Alcorn? I'm okay having a couple of cupcakes, but when it dominates your home non-conference schedule, please lower season tix prices. I am legitimately considering not doing season tickets any more and have been a holder with my family since 2003. Makes more sense to just do StubHub to the games I want to go to and save hundreds of dollars. Or hell, if I do want to go to a cupcake game I could go on StubHub & get a ticket for $6 instead of whatever you pay per game as a season tix holder.

I'm sure the game to be added will be D2.

TV spots interest me.

- At Northwestern on a Wednesday night - BTN written all over it.
- At Gonzaga on a Friday night - ESPN2 written all over it.
- KC tournament - what network are these slated for? They've been on ESPN in past, no?
- UNL is probably BTN
- All the others are FS1 or FS2

And yes, there are a lot of snoozers on the home slate.
