Buzz Williams continues to relentlessly schedule for Marquette. Ohio State, at Wisconsin, at Arizona State, 76 Classic + one more BCS game.

We're getting tOSU at home? That would be cool.

[MUMac]

Mountain West is not a BCS Conference.

[MUAlphaBangura]

Nukem, they are still working on that game, which would be played in Vegas at the MGM Grand. Also hearing that UCLA @ home or Duke @ MSG are possibilities, but more than likely, only one of those will get done. Also a home game with Ball St.

Technically not from a conference perspective, though the top teams are of BCS quality in BB......

SWEET! #mubb RT @mikebroeker: Scheduling with coach Buzz is a lot of fun. Ohio State and Arizona State added to slate. Home-and-homes.

When there is talk of scheduling another BCS school, they are talking in terms of conferences. Sorry, but New Mexico is not thought of as a BCS school.

At any rate, MUAlphaBangura said UCLA or Duke are potentials. They ARE BCS Schools.

@MarquetteHoops OSU here; ASU there.

[kneelb4zerg]

Isn't Arizona St also in the Anaheim Classic field?

Just saying that NM is the equal of many BCS BB schools from a competitive standpoint ( particularly at The Pit ) and would be equally attractive from a scheduling standpoint. I would prefer NM over ASU.

Good catch. Yes they are.

[MU/Panther]

Isn't Arizona St also in the Anaheim Classic field?

The field for the seventh annual tournament includes Arizona State, College of Charleston, Creighton, George Washington, Marquette, Miami and San Diego State. The eighth team will be announced at a later date.

[MU/Panther]

Also hearing that UCLA @ home or Duke @ MSG are possibilities, but more than likely, only one of those will get done. Also a home game with Ball St. Didn't see that anywhere. You must have some inside info.

[MUBasketball]

That's pretty unusual...Marquette will be in a holiday tournament with a team in their conference and another team they have a non-conference game with.

[ValiantSailor]

I need a countdown timer. Gonna be a fun season!

Neither is a done deal so you won't see anything until it is confirmed. There are some logistical things that need to be ironed out. That is why I stated they are possibilities. And as I said, likely only one of those games happens.

[MU/Panther]

If I would pick one of the two, I would take UCLA at the Bradley Center, than Duke at MSG. How great would that be for season-ticket holders and the MU fan base to have UCLA coming in.

I know they were at Marquette for the '64 Milwaukee Classic. Have they been there since?

I believe that is the last time MU played UCLA. The top two teams in the '70's and MU never met UCLA in the tourney. Of course, UCLA always had a much easier route to the tournament and MU would have only played them in the Final 4. The year they both made it, UCLA lost to NCST in the Semifinals.

Bangura is spot on, knows what he is talking about. Would like to get two of those three if they can.

@ Wisconsin
@ Arizona State

Home vs Ohio State
Home vs Ball State

Possible.....

New Mexico @ Vegas
Duke @ NYC
UCLA @ home

I would prefer New Mexico and UCLA as I don't want to give the ACC the satisfaction of playing in MSG.

[kneelb4zerg]

Doesn't Duke play St Johns in MSG every year anyway? I'll take the Duke game.

[TheSultan]

Oh I'd play Duke at MSG...but I'd play anybody pretty much anywhere.

[MU/Panther]

I would think MU wants and needs the home game versus UCLA. MU, now plays seven non-conference games at the BC. It would be Ohio State, UCLA and 5 other games at the BC. 3 games in Anaheim, @ Wisconsin, @ Arizona State and New Mexico in Las Vegas to reach 13 non-conference games.

MU @ Arizona State -- Monday, November 18th

During a call with season ticket holders tonight, #ASU coach Herb Sendek said Marquette is coming to Tempe on Nov. 18. #mubb

[kneelb4zerg]

Andrew Gruman ‏@AndrewGruman 14m

Told date #ASU coach Herb Sendek gave for the Marquette game in Tempe was wrong. Will be closer to Anaheim tournament to aid travel. #mubb

So the 18th is not the right date? A Saturday would make for a great road trip. Went to the 'Zona game years ago and that made for a fun trip.

[MU/Panther]

I'm hearing it's Monday Nov. 25 the week of the DirecTV Classic.

[MUAlphaBangura]

Southern, Grambling and Farleigh Dickinson are a few of our "buy" games next season. Don't know for sure if we will give Ball State a return game at some point.

[MU/Panther]

I hope MU doesn't give Ball State a return game. If your going to do a return game with a mid-major, it better be Milwaukee or Green Bay.

Southern wasn't too bad last year but Grambling was dead last in RPI and FD was 298

[Goose85]

Need to stay away from teams with projected RPIs in that range.

[kneelb4zerg]

Bound to have a couple I suppose. Last year we had five in the 200s . UMBC was 297, Colgate 252, miss St 228, SELU 224, DePaul 202z

[DCwarrior]

Every team has a few on the schedule. You'd just hope that teams from your own conference wouldn't be included in the group. Is it too much to ask for DePaul to simply be bad instead of historically bad.

Yes! They can't get out of their own way.

[MU/Panther]

Some of the schools that come to the BC, come at a cheaper cost.

Just doing my part to make Jimmy's site the premiere place to come for MU info and discussion. I, for one, really appreciate the effort Jimmy puts in for all of us.

Are we talking the MU board? I don't have the premium one, just on PantherU and don't care what was said.

Let's get back on track with this topic. :cool:

MANY others do not agree with you. Let's just say, he wore out his welcome fairly quickly and many, including I, have zero respect for the idiot.

How can anyone agree or disagree with me, because I didn't say anything because I didn't read what was said, because I don't have the Inside the Al premium part.

You said you "don't care what was (he) said". Many others do care what he said. Thus, they do not agree with you in that they do care what he said. He made pretty much an a$$ out of himself.

I know Jimmy, so I blow it off in what he has to say at times about Marquette. It's hard for me to get worked up about something that I don't know what it was about. So, I guess I would care.

Fair enough. And my initial retort was more of a "throw away comment". After your response, I thought I should clarify, as I was not trying to be argumentative.

Now back to your other comment: "Let's get back on track with this topic. :cool:" ...

[MU/Panther]

Here is what we kind've know......:cool:

Monday, Nov. 25th @ Arizona State

Thursday, Friday and Sunday, Nov. 28, 29 & Dec. 1, in Anaheim, Calif.
The field includes Arizona State, College of Charleston, Creighton, George Washington, Marquette, Miami, San Diego State
& Cal St Fullerton

Dec 7th or 14th @ Wisconsin

Dec 20th ? New Mexico in Las Vegas

Home Games
Ohio State
Ball State ?
Southern ?
Grambling ?
Farleigh Dickinson ?

[MUMac]

I like the way that schedule looks right now. Add to that one more major Home Game (please be UCLA!), along with Butler, Creighton, Xavier, Georgetown, Nova ... and that is one pleasing home schedule.

[MU/Panther]

With Providence coming in every year, can we bring the bat back.

By the way, the $100 down for 2013-14 season for the re-seating is due on May 31st for season-ticket holders.

[Nukem2]

With Providence coming in every year, can we bring the bat back.Could have a good promotion.....The Return of the Bat... :)

[MU/Panther]

Oklahoma St- Colorado to play at MGM Grand in Las Vegas. I'm guessing this is the same event with Marquette-New Mexico.
