Conference USA. Second best team in Conference, North Texas, didn't even make tournament, and FLA Atlantic's non-conference schedule ranked 251st out of 363 schools.
Guess who had a slightly worse non-conference? Tomorrow's opponent, K State at 255. But their Conference foes' tough defenses (Kansas, Texas, Baylor, West Virginia) exposed them to the 5th most difficult opposition defenses in the country.
