FULL SCHEDULE (27 GAMES) RELEASED! Hosting MTE(Nov25). W Ill(Dec3), N Car(Dec8), ISU (Dec11) & N Ill(Dec13) @ CHA. Gonzaga(Dec19). No Gavitt Games
- Thread starter Franisdaman
- Start date
They better talk to the players
Play the game the go to the next. If you have an injury it's pretty much a guarantee you're handicapped in both games then, unlike spacing them out.
I'm not sure how keeping them out of town for extra days is suppose to be safer.
Not really, no.

In 2015 Iowa played #6 Texas, #23 Syracuse, #15 UNC, #4 Iowa State and #20UNI...
If Gonzaga doesn't live up to expectations, 2015 will have been far tougher. Those were at the time of the game fyi.

I have kept this schedule thread updated since April:
As Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports has stated, college basketball scheduling during this pandemic has been difficult, has taken up a lot of time and has been, and I quote, wilder than a goat rodeo.
Some important notes on where Iowa's schedule currently stands:
(1) Just 3 of the Power 6 conferences have released at least part of their conference schedules:
(2) Still waiting on, of course, these 3 conferences:
B1G
SEC
ACC
(3) What we know of IOWA's likely 27 game schedule
2 games--Starting Nov 25?: Hosting a multi team event (MTE); Southern and North Carolina Central + one more team expected to participate.
1--Dec 8: B1G/ACC Challenge, North Carolina
1--Dec 19: Gonzaga
1--Iowa State
20--Conference games
1 game--To be Announced w/ Gavitt Games canceled
1 game--To Be Announced
.................................................
27 Total Games
My October 12, 2020 UPDATE:
As expected, per Jeff Goodman (see tweet that follows), it looks like Iowa will open its season on November 25th when they host their own MTE (Multi-Team Event) that includes Southern and North Carolina Central. There is expected to be one more team that will join them.
NOTE: The first three games OF THE ORIGINAL SCHEDULE constituted an exempt multi-team event (MTE) that Iowa was hosting. This home "tournament" was considered a classic; it was not a traditional tournament. Iowa, Southern, North Carolina Central and South Dakota were to all play each other. South Dakota was to host two games before playing at Iowa.
ORIGINAL Nonconference Schedule:
Game 1. Nov 10 vs Southern (17-15 last season, 13-5 in the Southwestern Athletic Conference)
Game 2. Nov 13 vs NC Central (18-13, 13-3 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference)
Game 3. Nov 16 or Nov 20 vs South Dakota (20-12, 10-6 Summit League)

Even the women's programs are struggling to finalize their schedules, as you can see below.
Just relax. The ACC, SEC & B1G will be releasing conference schedules soon.
And we soon will get to see college basketball games, on Nov 25, THREE WEEKS from today.

As you can see below, Illinois, Purdue and Florida are still trying to finalize their nonconference schedule. And that's just 3 examples. It's not just Iowa scrambling; it's most of the teams out there.

Conference USA has decided TODAY & is moving ahead with its plan of playing back to back games (on Friday & Saturday). I guess this ensures they get the games in but at what cost?
Can you imagine Iowa, EACH WEEK, playing conference games on Friday and Saturday?

Illinois is taking a big bite in the Jimmy V Classic. Start off with Baylor, who are ranked in the top five by almost everyone and then, if you win, you just may get #1 ranked Gonzaga. Tennessee is no lightweight either. Nice field!
In 19 days we are playing basketball.
Northern Illinois was added to the schedule yesterday.
Just one nonconference game to be determined.
What we know of IOWA's likely 27 game schedule:
2 games--Starting Nov 25?: Hosting a multi team event (MTE); Southern and North Carolina Central + one more team expected to participate.
1--Dec 8: B1G/ACC Challenge, North Carolina
1--Dec 19: Gonzaga

Still keeping my fingers crossed that there will, indeed, be a season to celebrate. Don't know how they're going to be able to keep the kids safe the way things the virus is taking off again. These are college students. Can't keep them in isolation for four months. Let's hope for an effective vaccine.
Didn't the Big Ten used to play a Thursday/Saturday schedule back in the old days (70's & 80's)?
yes, they did.
personally, i don't care how they do it; lets just get the games in.
maybe they could do Wed/Fri , Thur/Sat, and Fri/Sun type games.
If there are no fans in the stands, for teams we play twice, I have no problem with Iowa traveling to Purdue, for example, and playing them twice over 3 days. Once you are there, and everyone is testing negative, why not play and knock off 2 games of the 20 game schedule?
Regarding the B1G teams we play once:, maybe 3 or more B1G teams meet at one location and you knock off the 2 games that way.
I think this is why the ACC, SEC & B1G have not released conference schedules. They are trying to figure this all out. And since schools don't have to worry about selling tickets & selling out arenas, there's not much of a rush. I know @SotaHawk87 wants a schedule yesterday, but he's gonna have to be patient.
Whatever they decide, I hope they learn from football and make some allowances for postponing / rescheduling. Granted, it's not quite as important since more teams make the tournament, but it's almost guaranteed COVID will impact at least a few of the games.

Regarding your plan for the teams we play twice: Logistically that might make sense, but even though there aren't going to be a lot of fans in Mackey, it will still be a home game for Purdue. Their kids will sleep in their own beds, eat together where them normally do, etc. Meanwhile, we would be ensconced in a hotel and be dealing with unfamiliar surroundings. I realize that we would also receive that same benefit for some opponents, but then it comes down to who makes up the schedule, and which schools we face twice, and I'm just paranoid that it would be Iowa that plays two games at Mackey, two games at Breslin, two games at Kohl, etc.
its not my plan
It's just what other conferences are considering in order to (1) limit travel & the potential spread of covid, (2) cut expenses & (3) get the games in.150 individuals will be allowed at Rutgers games. I am guessing just family members & limited staff.
It will be interesting to see if the B1G policy is similar in all B1G arenas.
As you can see,
The B1G should have its schedule out next week.
The SEC just released their conference schedule. Damn slow pokes!!!
Kentucky, the bluest of blue bloods, has now just released its entire schedule.
Mountain West is still trying to figure it out.

If they can do 150 at the RAC we can easily accommodate 1,000 with social distancing bathroom etc at Carver. Heck my personal opinion is it could be done with up to 3,000 but that ain’t happening.
We play in roughly 19 days, on/around Nov 25, at CHA, where we are hosting our multi team event (MTE).

I was thinking the same thing weeks ago. I didn't understand waiting longer to start the season and still trying to get 27 games in. When in the same time frame only playing 26 games were played last year.
Hopefully the Iowa vs Gonzaga game in Sioux Falls, South Dakota will go off without any problems.
As you can see, teams are trying to avoid playing in the state of South Dakota right now.

Would you be ok with this for the B1G? With 11 teams & no fans, I think it makes sense for the Mountain West, at least.
