UC Basketball

Schedule finally came out. Pretty damn tough. NINE games on ESPN(or ESPN2) this year. They like us, they really like us.

Cincy, for some reason they're only showing UC/Xavier on ESPNU this year. Super lame.

There are a couple in here that aren't that tough but a few like Vandy, Xavier, Winthrop, UAB, and the Maui Invitational will be challenging, not to mention the obvious conference schedule. If they can win 20 or more, they should be a pretty decent seed in the tourney. I say 18 with a few good wins gets them in the tourney.
