but if you are UNC and you play in the ACC - Your OOC isn't as big of a deal because your overall schedule is absolutely brutal.
BYU doesn't have a awful non-conference schedule for a team that has a brutal conference schedule, I just don't think it is great for a WCC schedule.
at the end of the year they count how many total top 50 rpi teams you played and how you fared. Gonzaga might be the only top 50 rpi team in conference we play. SMC or someone else could be but not a lock...
Last year we played a better OOC schedule and we were rewarded for it. This year (if we don't beat SDSU) it isn't good. If we do beat SDSU it will add 1 or 2 more top 25 teams which would probably be good enough for good OOC schedule.
