Pretty nice draw. Most of the tough opponents will be in McKale.

If I were in the Big 12, I would make sure my top four opponents would play home-and-home series every year.
The bigger the draw, the more TV games we get, and the more exposure we get in the Big 12.
Arizona/Baylor/Houston/Iowa State and Kansas would be in that top tier for me.
The rest of the Big 12 programs would be plugged in to fill in the rest of the gaps.

There is a universe where we may not be all that great this season. My expectations are around 16 wins currently until I see the team on the floor under Tommy's coaching. He has very little to work with by way of experience. Bradley, Awaka, SloMo, and Delly are the core 4 and Delly is not suitable for Big12 play. So expecting the hodge podge of the rest to be Dominant will take a lot of commitment for a group of 5 to 7 new comers who will only likely be here for 1 year anyway.
