If opponents perform similar to last year, there are several Tier 1 RPI wins on the schedule. OSU(1)

WMU(30) SLU (37) Cornell (25)were all top 30-ish RPI teams last season.

Plus I’m sure a conference opponent or two will be high RPI rank. 
Big opportunities for the youthful Zips roster.

Also our big east conference games against the East Division do not appear

to include Georgetown (3)  or Providence (18)

I think that the Zips alternate years on Big East Eastern Division opponents...(always play the 5 other teams in Big East Mid west and 3 games against Big East Eastern teams)

in 2023, the Zips played Connecticut, St. John's and Seton Hall

Those 3 teams have already released their 2025 schedules and the Zips play all 3 teams in 2025.

In 2024, the Zips played Georgetown, Providence and Villanova.

   Villanova announced their schedule today and the Zips are not on their schedule.

 

3 big east Midwest teams ..(Xavier, Butler and Marquette) have released their schedules....

 

so....of the 10 games announced so far, 6 of the games are conference games.

 

The 2 remaining Big East conference games....will be against Midwest foes Creighton and DePaul.

 

I would anticipate that it will be a while before DePaul releases their schedule.  DePaul had to announce a tragic event yesterday involving a player that started in 16 games for them last year.

 

I am sure that all of us in the Akron zips soccer community want to extend our deepest sympathy to the family of this young man and to the coaches and the players of the DePaul Men's soccer community.

Great schedule so far, no doubt.
