'14-'15 Basketball Schedule Question
Hey! Sorry if this isn't forum-worthy, I just couldn't find it via Google and am ready for next season to start. Does anyone know 1) around when next year's schedule will be released and 2) when tickets will go up for sale?
Go Blue!
For this season, non conference was released on 8/23 and the Big Ten on 8/28. What we know so far, via umhoops (http://www.umhoops.com/information/future-schedules/).
- at Arizona
- 2014 Legends Classic: VCU, Villanova and Oregon
-
Big Ten-ACC Challenge: Probable home game
Big Ten Games:
- Home and Away: Illinois, Michigan State, Northwestern, Ohio State and Rutgers
- Home Only: Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska and Wisconsin
- Away Only: Indiana, Maryland, Penn State and Purdue
August is so far away! Thanks for the info. Love this team & love having so much faith in the coaching staff. Go Blue!
Based upon what is already on the slate, most of the remaining non-conference games will be of the 'cupcake' variety. They already have 2 solid match-ups (Arizona and I'm guessing a high ranked team in the ACC) and 3 teams that will have be solid rpi teams in the Legends classic. There might be a game or two added against teams like Stanford, but most of the remaining non-conference schedule is going to be filler.
With Wisconsin home only and several of the weaker teams being away only, our conference schedule is somewhat nicer next year. I want 3 out of 4 B1G titles
Does the B1G-ACC challenge match the teams in order of finish in league, the previous season, meaning we are all but guaranteed to play Virginia?
Or is there a provision to avoid recent matchups--we played UVa two or three years ago. Either way, I really hope we get a (good) home game.
Keep an eye on umhoops here. Dylan usually keeps it updated.
