I hope we get to see it.
-
We will get to play the #1 recruit in the country Cade Cunningham in MKE
-
Some great matchups in here. Creighton @ Kansas has a chance to be a top ten battle. Villanova @ Texas has big name cache. Baylor @ Seton Hall has potential if SH can fill some holes.
Were pretty far down the pecking order in this one. Oh well.
-
Oklahoma State had a huge November last year. Should be a solid match up.
-
Will MU provide PPE for all the players?
-
Only going to dress 7 players. Furloughed the rest.
-
Anyone thinking we might not be in the Gavitt Games this year? With OK State, Wisconsin and UCLA, we already have three power non-conference matchups. Not a whole lot of flexibility in scheduling non-conference games.
Additionally, what are the odds that we flip the home/home with UCLA? Any chance we get UCLA to travel here this year, while travel there next?

1/3 chance we don't get a Gavitt game. 3 years left, and we have 2 games remaining.
Posted this in the schedule thread, but am I missing any other games already decided for next season?
@UCLA
Rhode Island (N)
Minnesota/UCF (N)
OK State (H)
Wisconsin (H)
Potential BE/B10 matchup
Lehigh (H)
Likely one of Albany, LIU-Brooklyn or Quinnipiac (Tournament home game)
Miss anything?
-
Fun schedule. Probably will be a struggle but I'm excited to see a lot of teams that MU doesn't usually play.
-
T-Rank has OSU as #32
Lunardi has them as an 8 seed.
Another quality match up for us and we get them at home.

Why would we want to flip the UCLA game and risk playing in front of no fans this year? And then have a true away game in ‘21-‘22?

We know Ok State, UWM, UCLA, Rhode Island, & Minnesota/UCF project as 5 higher level non-con games.
But in 2021, we know we get UWM, UCLA, & 3 games in Charleston. We will also likely have at least one challenge game. That's almost certainly at least 6 high level games. I think it's more likely we have a Gavitt in 2020 & not 2021.

And Notre Dame next season, too.

I believe that starts in 2022.

Well I'm an idiot. Thanks!

It still underlies that these non-con schedules will be packed. Here's my assumption of what our next three non-cons will look like in terms of quality games:
- 2020: UWM, UCLA, Ok State, URI, Minnesota/UCF, Gavitt
- 2021: UWM, UCLA, Charleston Classic x3, Big 12 Challenge
- 2022: UWM, Notre Dame, Gavitt, Big 12 Challenge, Exempt Tourney (Possibly PK85?)
With just 11 games available, that means we should expect more quality games than buy games the next 3 years. If they continue chasing Q2/3 home games each year (Belmont, Vermont, Fresno, Buffalo, ND State types) that will likely reduce the number of Q4 games to just 3-4 per year. It's a far cry from where we were during Wojo's first two years.

Can we please go to Battle for Atlantis in 2022 :/

I know they've looked into it, though I would prefer PK85 if we can get in. That will definitely be the marquee event that year, assuming they do it again.
-
I hate watching the Battle for Atlantis on TV. The lighting there is terrible. I prefer Maui as a TV viewer.

Ah - was not thinking when posted. I would prefer PK85 as well. And to Wades point, Maui over B4A too.
I'd like to hit all 3 of those destinations and plan on Charleston as of now.

Battle 4 Atlantis is almost always the strongest tournament field...besides the PK85. One of those two is what I want to see MU in.
-
I get tripped up for a second when Brew writes UWM. I'm thinking it's the Panthers.
Oklahoma State game is on a Tuesday. Dec. 1st.
-
I’ve hated Ok St. since Big Country knocked us out of the tournament almost 30 years ago.

Can’t believe that was almost thirty years ago. I was there and it sucked.

Hoosier Dome was there...1993

I went to scoop the minute that game ended and demanded O’Neill be fired

And we are scheduled to return to Maui in 2023.

Interesting that UConn got omitted (instead of, say, a school with a worse record).
Too bad the Big 12 can't live up to its name.
-
We will get to play the #1 recruit in the country Cade Cunningham in MKE
#1 recruit? No problem, we've been there before.
Bring back Rowsey to harass him.

UConn asked to be in the Gavitt Games or this challenge, not both because of their commitment to other non-con games

I know UConn asked to be omitted from one, but in my opinion, it would be perfectly fine to omit them from both for the duration of those deals. Those deals were made considering the league's current membership and the current members were essentially guaranteed X number of games from those deals. If UConn's presence materially changes that, the Big East's scheduling isn't living up to what the pre-UConn members agreed to. Let the Huskies be part of future negotiated challenges and leave the current ones as is.

Doesn't UConn have to play 1 or 2 AAC schools?

Well, that is sensible. I didn't know they asked out.
