‘26-27 Schedule

[tower912]

Tom Izzo wants to retire and needs more money to do that. Also, he wants a cut to compensate him for taking Joey off our hands. That was an issue that was never settled.

Crean to MU.  Hauser to MSU.  Fair swap.

[Jay Bee]

Michigan State is part of the season ticket plan.

That stinks. I wanted to get cheapo courtside tix for it. Oh well. Maybe still can??

[Billy Hoyle]

That will be a really tough test for MU with what MSU has coming back. They should be a top 10 team. Nigel will get a huge test matching up with Fears.

Good. Any great player needs to overcome all Fears!

If it was a real game I'd agree, but based on how those exhibition games tend to go, it probably won't have the intensity and meaningful takeaways that a game that mattered would.

SMH, another game with no stakes.

Maybe, but look at some of the high-profile exhibition games from last year, like Michigan/St. John's and Kentucky/Purdue. Those were pretty intense. UConn/MSU was as well.

[tower912]

Any interaction with MSU will be intense.  The Izzo way.

I thought the same when I went to the DePaul vs. ND preseason game last year.  I think ND thought they would roll DePaul.  When DePaul was winning with their starters in the second half, ND put theirs in and it was a fairly intense game. 

No one wants to lose.  If it's close, the main rotations will play a surprising amount of minutes.

If it's a blow out either way, "its just an exhibition game".

[Uncle Rico]

He's very intense at ignoring rape

[MUDPT]

Bucks schedule out, they have one scheduled Saturday home game in January/ February/ early March which is January 30.

Great. So now Marquette won't get to play at home on Jan. 30. I blame the marketing department, Shaka, Broeker and 18 ... not necessarily in that order.

Time to kick out the Bucks.

Were those Canadian games D1 or don't they count?

Those were exhibitions

[brewcity77]

Those were exhibitions

Yup, just like when we play the Lindenwood types before the official season start.
