MU hosts Northern State University in exhibition play

On Sunday the Marquette Golden Eagles will sort of kick off the 2007-2008 campaign with an exhibition game against Northern State University.  Tip-off will be at 6pm CST at the Bradley Center.

After analyzing Sunday night's matchup, I'm confident that Marquette will win, even without Trevor Mbakwe.  Why?  This is a classic trap game for Northern State.  NSU played at Iowa on Saturday night then squeezes in the Marquette tilt on Sunday - - just days before their big battle with Black Hills State.Smart scheduling by MU.

Here is the GoMarquette release on the game.

For the students out there, what time are you planning on getting to the game?

same time I would for a regular season game...

I love basketball season.  A couple hours before gates open. Bringing a football down and going to enjoy the relatively nice autumn day

I might join you.  I don't have very much going on today and it isn't too bad outside.

For the students out there, what time are you planning on getting to the game?

I'm going to be there by about 5:15 at the earliest. I don't think it will be all that packed.

There is also a concert tonight which may affect attendance.  Psh.  Last year my intermural softball team forfeited the championship game to go to the first exhibition game.  Can you believe they wouldn't let us move the championship?
