Conference Schedule 2023_24_MBB_Schedule.pdf

I guess with 9 teams they couldn't do the pure travel partner system I'd have expected (and still expect for next season). But at least they gave us the UTEP/NMSU trip that way. Will be a kind of weird one-off season (like this season was with 11).


I hate 10 for football (where I think you just spread the bye around and mix with OOC games), but for basketball I guess it really is helpful for both quantity of conference games overall (even if each school would probably just as soon be playing a OOC opponent as CUSA teams we don't care anything about, except that you have to work to go get those games and the timing has to work) and for the balance of everyone playing a Thu/Sat schedule with partners.

No way they don't just do pairs next year, right?

Here are the "travel partners" for this year / based on UTEP/NMSU schedule.


UTEP/NMSU
WKU/MTSU
Tech/SHSU
Liberty/JSU
FIU

Tech/SHSU
Liberty/JSU

But that only applies to UTEP/NMSU (because, come on, you've got to throw the rest of us a bone for that trip).

We aren't playing WKU/MTSU as a travel partner (or any of the rest of them). But I get it (for this year). Surely next year it will more or less be right down the line partners with either Thu/Sat or Wed/Sat (if that is what our new media deal calls for).

I'd assume:

Tech/SHSU
NMSU/UTEP
WKU/MTSU
KSU/JSU
LU/FIU (not close, but that's who will be left - what else would be better)

For everyone except LU/FIu you fly into one airport and bus to next game.

@studurando
does a terrific job covering the Billikens. Stu reports that SLU (Saint Louis) will host Hofstra and Louisiana Tech as part of its non-conference schedule.


Earlier in the process, we shared that Illinois state visits on November 11th, in a new home and home series.
