Title: One less home game .. here come the refunds..
Post by: mu_hilltopper on August 05, 2008, 03:19:35 PM
Got an email just now from MU .. that the number of Home games will be 19, not 20, and season ticket holders will get a refund for the 1 game not played.

Hmm.  I sure hope we're not losing the Houston Baptist or Presbyterian College games.

I would have said Western Carolina was the most likely, because they were scheduled to play on 12/21. But I just checked WCU's website to see if we had been removed, and the game was moved to 12/19.  So now I'm not sure.

Maybe Buzz decided we proved our point and don't need to play UWM again.

EDIT:  Wiki Updated to reflect WCU date change.

Maybe no exhibition games?  Two closed scrimmages instead?  The previously mentioned one against Nebraska (http://www.journalstar.com/articles/2008/06/09/huskerextra/mens_basketball/doc484c7240566f5024965273.txt), and one against Indiana?  :o

From the wiki schedule it looks like they couldn't get something worked out with UWGB to play them at home

Though yeah here come the mass refunds for the season ticket holders

I just checked the schedules of everybody listed in the Wiki(it's a slow day), and all of those that have released a schedule still have us on it.  The only one that is up in the air is Houston Baptist, but they don't have a schedule out.

Then again, there's only 18 home games listed(not counting UWGB) so maybe we lost someone that we didn't know about to begin with.

From what I know Houston Baptist is still a go as our home opener.  I would expect that we lost an exhibition game someplace
