Did UOP Duck Sac State?

[superhornet]

Home games against Sonoma State and Hayward State, roadie at the Bungles?!?

Whoever came up with THAT schedule ought to be taken out and shot. Sac would have been a better choice from a Tiger perspective. From a Sac perspective, a win against a WCC school would be MUCH more likely than for ISU, though. Looks like UOP is trying to make the NCAAs on conference rep alone. SMH....

I doubt they're "afraid" of Sac St. As good we are this year, we are still a lower-tier D1 school. A prime example is the College Basketball Countdown ranking the creme' of the crop Weber St. lower than most WCC school, and other lower-tier D1 conferences. I think when it comes down to it, to have a steady rivalry with regional teams from difference conferences, both the coaches and AD have to be actively involved in the scheduling process, and the 3 schools in the region (UCDavis, UoP, and Sac St.) are doing a very poor job.
