I think it's a great schedule for this team with lots of RPI top 25 and 50 games and few dogs. However, there's not a second or third amazing team like there has usually been with UCONN, Tennessee and the other (Oregon State, South Carolina, Iowa, Duke when ND wasn't in ACC, etc.). I expect only one loss and lots of competitive games.

Furthermore, many of the hardest games are at home, except for UCONN.

So, I think it will still have a high SOS degree of difficulty and is an excellent schedule, but I don't there there are as many top 10 teams non-conference as there have usually been.
