    Top Non-Conference Match Ups
    • IUPUI @ Indiana- The Hoosiers are in a rebuilding year and IUPUI should be up for this game
    • IUPUI vs Indiana State- Another instate match up for the Jaguars against a Middle of the pack MVC team.
    • NDSU @ Minnesota- Can the Bison overcome their Barn struggles and give the talented young Gophers a game?
    • NDSU vs SFA(at Drake)- Two Mid-Major teams that are predicted to compete in the NCAA tourney lock horns on a neutral court.
    • Oakland @ Cleveland State- Both teams return a lot of talent and both enter the season with high hopes.
    • Oakland vs Michigan(At Auburn Hills)- Oakland has a great team this year and should provide quite a challenge for the Wolverines.
    • ORU vs Tulsa- Two rivals from the same city should make for a classic match up.
    • ORU vs South Florida- The Golden Eagles host a Big East team and will be ready for the challenge.

    • ORU vs North Carolina- I had to add this game, ORU will face an uphill battle but Summit League teams don't play teams like UNC on ESPN2 that often.


    Top 10 Upset Chances
    1. IUPUI at Indaina
    2. Oakland vs Michigan(neutral court)
    3. NDSU at Minnesota

    5. UMKC vs Northwestern
    6. IUPUI at Seton Hall

    Interesting...and informative...post FB. Thanks for taking the time to post it down here. Although it may be available on the league site, I'm printing out the TV schedule and especially appreciated that! Rep points for our northern brethren.

      Great post! It'll be fun to look back on this post in March and see how it all matches up. No possible upsets for the Jacks?

        All of the Jacks wins will be an upset! If you go by the spreads that will be put on these games, regardless of what we think!
