Great news ballfan, thanks for sharing. Easy trip for us and payday will support many programs for the year. You never know, we could take their money and get the win too, get revenge for the NCAA tournament loss in '09.

Have to hand it to UNC. Just looked at their non conference schedule and they stacked the deck. 5 games against NCAA Tournament teams from 2015, 3 games against NIT teams. At 16-15 we are probably the second easiest game on their schedule.

Be nice if RU could get Wake Forest to come to RU some day. If we keep winning, they might. 3 winning seasons in a row certainly does put better teams on our road map. But it's the double edge sword. They want us to come to them, but they will never go to us. It's the NCAA double standard. Beating us on the road in the grand scheme of things means very little. But losing to us on the road would severely hurt their NCAA at large chances.

Looks like we've also got a good old fashioned mid major tournament on the schedule. I listed out their records from last season and any post season tournament action below. Only real heavy hitters in this tournament are Akron and Mercer. Everyone else, we should be able to hold our own against pretty easily.
Savannah Invitational:
Home Teams Air Force Falcons (MW)- 14-18 Akron Zips (MAC)26-9 - NCAA Tournament appearance as a 14 seed vs. Ohio State East Carolina Pirates (American)12-20 Mercer Bears (SoCon)19-15 - CIT 1st Round Appearance vs. Coastal Carolina
Visiting Teams Florida A&M Rattlers (MEAC)8-21 Georgia Southern Eagles (Sun Belt)14-17 Radford Highlanders (Big South)16-15 Stetson Hatters (A-Sun)12-22

Great research guys, looking forward to the new season already. Cool that we are in a mid-major tournament, I really hate the two-tiered format of the tournaments we've been playing in lately. Already looks like we have a tough early schedule, and don't have to do excessive traveling to compete in it.
