Next year's schedule Q

[brewcity77]

I don't see any 3-1 deals with GB or Milwaukee, untill Marquette gets H/H deals done with BCS schools to make up the loss of not playing Syracuse, L'ville, Pitt, etc.

I don't see any deals period, 3-for-1, 4-for-1, or otherwise. If we play one, we will be expected to play the other, or we're going to hear constantly "why are you ducking Milwaukee" or "why are you ducking Wardle".

4 (1) games non-con tourney
2 (1) games Wisconsin/Notre Dame (Fully expect that to happen)
1 (0.5) games high-major home and home (like LSU, Vandy, NC State, etc in recent years)
1 (0.5) game Big East/??? Challenge (probably Pac-12 or Big 12)
1 (0) game neutral court exhibition (like tOSU, Washington)

The numbers in parenthesis are the number of home games we will get from each grouping. That puts us at 10 games with only 3.5 home games. I am pretty sure Marquette wants at least 16 home games on the schedule. We need to play an additional 4 buy games every year just to get to 16. So unless Milwaukee and Green Bay want to commit to a buy-only scenario, they won't be playing Marquette any time soon.
