CBS Sports Ranks All of the Basketball Teams 1-351

145. William & Mary Would think we'll be in for a lot of 81-77 games with Bill+Mary this season. Omar Prewitt is the name to know for the Tribe, a group that will be fun to watch and threaten to win the auto bid in the CAA.

Three of the top 20 rated teams in the country. We should definitely know how good we are, nationally, by Christmas.
He thinks highly of UNCW, Top 100. That's also good for the League.

Yep. I'd like to see more teams in the 100 range; but, as we all know with scheduling, a lot of times you either (a) sign these deals ahead of time and don't know how the teams will end up by the time you play or (b) take what you can get.
Overall, this is a pretty good schedule outside of Savannah State, Presbyterian, and the two non-D-I schools (which won't hurt our RPI, anyway). In those seasons where we might be lucky enough to compete for an at-large if we get hot, though, those games would hurt us (for instance just last year, just flipping the 3 point loss to Dayton and the 2 point loss to Howard would've put us firmly in the conversation (about a mid-40s RPI); and if you add the 3-point UNCW loss to that, then we would've been in the upper-20s in the RPI - easily within at-large bid range).
I like playing the tough teams, though. Nothing in the CAA can be that intimidating after playing at Cameron Indoor and the KFC Yum! Center.
