"Other marquee games on the slate include at Xavier (November 15), vs. Marshall (November 17), at Southern Mississippi (December 4), and at Tennessee (December 23).
Woods takes the “anywhere, anytime, anyplace” approach when it comes to scheduling — an approach that some coaches in low and mid-major conferences use to gain exposure, test their team in November and December, and add some additional funds into the program through guarantee games:
“I expect Xavier, UCLA, Southern Miss and Tennessee to all be big-time road environments, but we have several high-major transfers who have played in that type of atmosphere. That experience should certainly help us. I like to talk about playing anyone, at any time, using any location — and that’s what we’re doing again this year. Our strong non-conference schedule will help our RPI and prepare us for a very challenging league schedule.”
