Big East 2017-18 OOC Schedule

[Bill Marsh]

Don't sleep on Grand Canyon. That's a deceptively tough home game. Louisville played there this past year (won by 9) and Pitino called the toughest road environment he's seen. I'm sure the students will bring it like that again for another high major opponent in SJU.

Nice to see the Johnnies challenging themselves and scheduling tough.

Oh i'm very nervous about that game. The Suns legend Dan Majerle is the coach out there. I'm sure thats how that game got set up, old buddies got to talking and put the game together.

I believe we also have Long Beach State on the road next year but waiting for someone to confirm that game is still on.

A half time 3-point shooting contest featuring Majerle and Mullin would be worth the price of admission.

I hope DePaul is skipped this year in the Gavitt Games. If they can't beat Rutgers or Penn State, then they can't beat any B1G team. If we skip them, then we have a better chance at victory in the games.

Marquette:

• Home Gavitt Game
• @ Wisconsin (Likely Dec. 9)
• v Georgia
• Maui Classic (3 of Notre Dame, Wichita State, Cal, Michigan, LSU, VCU, Chaminade)

Georgia is Dec. 2nd.

11/10/17: vs. Kennesaw State (home)
11/12/17: vs. Princeton (home)
11/23/17-11/25/17: PK80 (Three of Arkansas, UConn, Duke, Florida, Georgetown, Gonzaga, Michigan State, UNC, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Oregon, Portland, Portland State, Stanford, Texas)
12/16/17: vs. Purdue (neutral)
UNKNOWN DATE vs. Utah (home)

I imagine another home-and-home series will be scheduled. That seems to be the routine anymore.

Reports are PC is out this year, but who knows?

Is that someone Redmen.com or JJ?

Oh i'm never on Redmen.com. I get my info from Rumble in the Garden and our beat writers on twitter.

Do we know who won't be in the Gavitt games next season?

You'd assume that it'd be 2 of the teams that haven't missed yet in the first 2 years... so 2 of Creighton, DePaul, Georgetown, Providence, St John's, or Villanova.

A lot of the information out of the Xavier camp is that they won’t be in it next season. Obviously that is subject to change still, since at this point last year Xavier was fully planning on being in it and Creighton was planning on being out and that got switched up due to schedules.

Jon Rothstein says the Jays will have a home buy game vs Yale

[OmahaGuy]

If you have a twitter account, follow @JonRothstein. Every offseason, everyday he'll release a couple of non-conference games for just about every P6 team. Like, today he said Purdue will host Fairfield and Northwestern will host Valpo next season. He's also normally the first or among the first people to release conference challenge games as well as exempt tourney match ups.
