Welcome to my 1st annual Non-Conference Schedule Palatability Rankings. The simplest way to describe it (yes, I understand, no ranking system is perfect) is "palatable" opponents (highlighted in bold/italic) are defined as one of the following:
1. A Power 6 opponent (there are 80);
2. A 2023 NCAA Tournament qualifier;
3. The 2023 NIT (North Texas) and CBI (Charlotte) champions; and/or
4. Teams I'm projecting to qualify for the 2024 NCAA Tournament
First out of the gate is West Virginia.
Opponents final 2023 NET rank in parentheses.
WEST VIRGINIA (13 games)
Palatable Games Percentage: 38.5%
Average NET: 161.269
Nov. 6: MISSOURI STATE (144)

Nov. 20: vs. SMU (209)
