According to latest Bracketology we have played two #1 seeds in Nova and Purdue, one #2 in Wichita State and a #3 in Xavier. Of course we went 0-4 but that schedule seems insane to me and we play Xavier and Nova again. Has anyone else played 4 top 10 teams already? Is this good for us going forward for the tourney? I would think so.
The strong schedule certainly helps our RPI. And assuming we get in, it helps to be battle-tested.
Schedule has definitely broken in our favor. We have played and hung with the best teams in the country. Didn't and probably don't have the ponies to beat them with regularity or at all, but we were competitive. Had chances to win or challenge all of them
The Worldwide Leader has us at SOS=13 at the moment.

Playing that mid-major in Madison is hurting the SOS.

Imagine the next two games improve on that a fair amount as well.

I thought D2 schools don't affect that
