BYU basketball: Cougars need plenty of wins with soft schedule

BYU basketball announced its 13-game non-conference schedule for 2017-18, and one word could appropriately describe their slate of games.

Meh.

Excluding exhibition games, BYU basketball’s non-conference schedule this year consists of:

  • Mississippi Valley State
  • at Princeton
  • UT Arlington
  • Niagara
  • vs Alabama (Barclay’s Center Classic)
  • vs UMass (Barclay’s Center Classic)
  • at UVU
  • at Utah State
  • Illinois State
  • vs Weber State (Beehive Classic)
  • Utah
  • Idaho State
  • Texas Southern
