For those who can’t get enough LU basketball (I trust there are some of you out there), here is a look at our team’s common OOC opponents across the Patriot League schedule. LC and AU – each with five matches in common – might well offer us the best indicator of relative strength during the days leading up to the start of Patriot League play on January 12th. Of course, differences do exist in dates of play and venue. Regardless, the comparison game is always fun and something to chew on beside turkey over the upcoming holidays.
