Edit : figured this was worth a thread so we can actually talk about basketball again.

Looks like some very good games!

Well, worth a new thread!

And no UCONN. Wonder if that was prearranged or how that will work out in future years.

Hurley said a few months ago that he would prefer one or the other (B1G). I think they were already tight on scheduling.....Kinda sucks that our presumed 2 best teams have to go on the road but I'm confident Nova cant put the hurt on Shaka, even if they get top recruit Brown.

Dear God,
Please let there be basketball soon.

UConn already had a road game at Florida and has a guaranteed Gavitt Game. Their schedule was tight to begin with. Nothing more than that. That means three teams in the Battle will miss the Gavitt Games.

Anyone else loaded up on OOC P games? MU has UCLA and Wisconsin on the slate (in addition to OK State). I bet we are left out of the Gavitt Games this year.

Creighton fans tend to think we will be out of this years Gavitt games. However, if CU is projected to be a nationally ranked team maybe they’ll keep us in it even though we have played every year thus far.

Xavier is slated to play in the Gavitt Games this year, and have asked to play on the road. I would very much like Ohio State, IU, Michigan, MSU, or Purdue.

Busting Brackets has their BE v B12 Breakdown for next season...some surprises here folks.

Tristan Freeman has the B12 winning 6/4, with SH (at home) upsetting Baylor, while both Nova and the Jays fall on the road. Hmmm?
