Very glad to see this again. Is anyone hosting again that did last year? I'd hope this would rotate pretty frequently so no team played home or road in consecutive years.


Xavier and Providence repeat as hosts

St. John's and Marquette repeat being on the road


Looks like a home game to me. DePaul student tickets are pretty easy to pick up. I don't even have to drive since the train station is within walking distance of my apartment. I'd be shocked if there were more DePaul fans than Marquette fans at that game.
This is my opinion. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

Looks like quite a few Fox national games this year too.

Yeah, 9 national Fox tv broadcasts, that is huge. Not sure many conferences get that many games on national tv.

I think that's a pretty normal number. I know Big Ten and ACC get at least that many. Not as sure about Big 12 or Pac 12.

One big thing though- wouldn't really call a game on ESPN as not being on National TV. It's not like 30 years ago.

And there are a few on CBS as well. Right now St. John's has one CBS, two Fox, and two more that might be on Fox. How many other universities outside the Big East are getting that many national network games?

I don't know. UConn has 2 CBS, 1 ESPN Saturday night where Gameday is at, and a ESPN game vs Duke on 12/18. And 4 more that could be on ESPN.

Heck Duke has 2 CBS, 1 Fox, and 11 on ESPN. And I'm sure there are others.

National Network just isn't as meaningful as it was 30 years ago.

I know- but that is really totally meaningless in 2014. There is very little difference between being on network or being on ESPN.

Not totally meaningless, I'm a cord cutter myself so I don't get ESPN but I do get broadcast networks. But your point is valid, that for a LARGE majority if the us, ESPN is basically on the level of broadcast TV in terms of access.

one thing just saw- appearantly the Feb 28 game with St John's on CBS is a split national game. I wonder if the other CBS game is like that as well..
