Season Starts Nov 25

[Galway Eagle]

MU vs. UW is still on.  Only the Gavitt Games are canceled, so if those other series aren't part of the Gavitt Games I'd guess they'd still play.

Gotcha, I was confused because my understanding was those cross state rivalry games were going to count as the Gavitt games this year. Must've misunderstood

TV Schedule?

[MU82]

7-3 through the Nova game would be very good, excellent even.

TV Schedule?

TV Schedule and times are not out yet.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

I checked at UWGB's roster. Yeesh. That is going to be a very fatty cupcake. They got devastated by transfers and graduation. Out of the 10 players in their rotation last season, 8 are no longer on the roster. I know they have Baby Bo coaching them but he's going to need a few years to get into the swing of things.

The non conference is released too

Question is whether any spectators will be allowed at any of the home games.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

I may have a lead on the 7th non-conference game. ESPN lists us playing Jackson State on December 19th. I thought it may have been an error, but I checked out Jackson State's website:

https://gojsutigers.com/sports/mens-basketball/schedule/2020-21

They also list at Marquette on December 19th.

Now, this seems very unlikely because we are playing at Xavier on December 20th. I doubt we would schedule a home game the day before a conference road game. Maybe we had a tentative agreement with Jackson State before the BEast announced their schedule? If we did work something out with Jackson State prior to the BEast schedule, maybe they are being kept on the back burner as a backup game in case an opponent has to cancel due to COVID?

That was an original game that has obviously been cancelled.

I know they have Baby Bo coaching them but he's going to need a few years to get into the swing of things.

I'm sure he'll massage a few wins out of that roster.

If not, it would be a real Bo-ner.

Gotta believe that will be a negative unless WI can turn its Covid numbers around.

Maybe we're doing a split-squad game.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

That was an original game that has obviously been cancelled.

I'll be honest, I completely forgot that they announced an original non-conference season. This of course makes total sense.

I do wonder though if they'll end up using one of the cupcakes from the scrapped non-conference for the 7th game if they choose to add a game. Relationship is already established. Chicago State would probably make the most sense during COVID.

Can't wait for Sam to eat Joeys lunch

Can't wait for Sam to eat Joeys lunch

Can't wait to ignore both of them.

[MU82]

I hope Sam and Joey get to have this Clash of Whiners. With what's going on in college football, I'm having doubts again about this basketball season taking place. I very, very, very much hope my concern is unfounded.

[The Sultan]

It will take place.  It will be messy.

Virginia sucks and Michigan State is a disgraceful institution.  Easy pass

[PGsHeroes32]

This.

It's gonna happen. But how it plays out is anyones guess.

[Viper]

Can't wait to ignore both of them.

agreed. Hauser's are yesterday.

[WhiteTrash]

Michigan State is a disgraceful institution.  Easy pass

+1,000.

MSU and Baylor are two schools i wouldn't let girls go to.

Stuff happens at any school but the cover ups are shameful.

Can't wait for Sam to eat Joeys lunch

Who?

[The Sultan]

Who?

Apparently someone named Sam is having lunch here, and the poster wants to watch him.  Very odd.
