Andy Landers has announced a typically challenging schedule for the Lady Dogs. 14 of the 29 scheduled opponents were in last year’s NCAA Tournament. The SEC schedule rotation again places both Tennessee and LSU on the schedule twice. The Lady Dogs will again open the season with a big challenge. Last year it was defending national champ Baylor and this year it’s perennial power Rutgers. The home schedule is highlighted by a game with Stanford on the Sunday following the Georgia Tech football game.

I’ll have much more to say about this schedule and the team as the season approaches, but the schedule guarantees that we’ll know very quickly what kind of team this will be.
