Princeton's schedule is listed on the team web site now.
Non league games are: Buffalo, Northeastern, Rutgers, Syracuse, Lafayette, Wagner, Kent State, Drexel, Fordham, Rider, Bucknell, Akron, Elon, plus the College of NJ as our Division 3 game.
This looks like the lightest non-league schedule we've played in many years, with only Syracuse and Rutgers coming from power conferences. Perhaps someone with more knowledge than me can shed some light on which of the Mid-Majors on this list appear to be formidable.
Is it possible that there are games that are as yet unscheduled?

Princeton Schedule is Up

In response to Dial Lodge
There's only one "marquee" game (Syracuse), but almost every other D-I game looks to be against a decent, solid or very good opponent. This may have something to do with RPI tactics:

The absence of an early season tournament should be a good thing, too. The Gazelle-organized tourneys were really deflating (too many games too soon?), and I'd rather not see Bray's knee take three-games-in-three-days .

Yeah - Princeton can't do an MTE until the 2014-15 season now.
