Guessing Friday 12/11 vs Iowa State.

 

[hawktech]

Hallelujah! Go Hawks!

 

[QChawks]

Guessing Friday 12/11 vs Iowa State.

Good guess

 

[truehawkfan45]

Checking on other top tier programs, outside of Gonzaga, it seems most have fit in 3 potential ‘tier 1’ non-con games.

Using MsU for example, their 3 would be Duke, Notre Dame, and Virginia.. which is pretty on par or even slightly easier than Iowa State, North Carolina, and Gonzaga.

Good news for us & credit to the staff.. I’m sure ready for some Hawkeye hoops!

 

[Hawk_4shur]

Home/Home - OSU, Wisc, MSU, Rutg, Minn, NW, Ind.

Home - PU, Neb, PSU

Away - Ill, MD, Mich

These results have not been certified.

Illinois, Maryland, Michigan - all probably good. Only play once, but all on the road,

Wish they would play IL twice...those have the potential to be some great games.

 

[Hawk_4shur]

Agreed. Does anyone have any insight into how they come up with these schedules?

 

[Mountain Man Hawk]

Only complaint is we don’t get the home game against Illinois in case we need a tie breaker for conference standings.

 

[QChawks]

same.

I’m so giddy we only ha e to wait one more week to tip off the season!

 

[tWarnerHawk]

Christmas game vs Minny will be nice since many of us, at least speaking for myself, aren't going anywhere.

 

[Legend12]

same.

I’m so giddy we only ha e to wait one more week to tip off the season!

I like that 3 PM game the day before Thanksgiving....nice reason to shut down the laptop a bit early.

We play braska before that one so we get a solid week to prepare for I'll!

 

[Hawkeye_311]

Concerned about extra travel with COVID-19...Play Rutgers twice and Nebraska once. Sounds about right.

 

[Beam me up]

Iowa's

They won’t need a second game with Illinois beceuse the Hawks are going unbeaten in the conferece

 

[kceasthawk]

Friday will be interesting in my house. We're having Tday dinner on Friday.. Nebraska football right into basketball against Southern. Hopefully relaxing evening watching basketball and a second piece of pecan pie......

Seems like Iowa has played Nebby once too many times.

 

[H4wkfan4life]

Concerned about extra travel with COVID-19...Play Rutgers twice and Nebraska once. Sounds about right.

What the difference?

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

I'll tell you what that schedule looks like......

Spoiler

NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP!!

 

[Hawkeye_311]

What the difference?

About 2,000 miles.

 

[Legend12]

What the difference?

There is none.

Travel to any location is going to be the same...airplane-bus-hotel-bus-arena-bus-airplane.

Or no plane if they drive. Very little difference in exposures.

 

[H4wkfan4life]

About 2,000 miles.

685

 

[Hawkeye_311]

685

Are they staying in New Jersey forever?

 

[H4wkfan4life]

Are they staying in New Jersey forever?

Ok, about 1370.

 

[TheTruthTheWholeTruth]

I’m not saying the first half of the B1G schedule is easy or anything but Iowa had better start 7-3/8-2. That back half is a bear.

 

[QChawks]

+1

 

[Hans81]

Yeah, I agree...wish the Hawks played Illini twice.

You telling me that we’re in line for yet another Fran Fade?

 

[Fran_Man]

At least Nebraska is at home. Iowa has lost some games they shouldn’t in Lincoln.

 

[Fran_Man]

Christmas game vs Minny will be nice since many of us, at least speaking for myself, aren't going anywhere.

With the Hawks playing on Christmas I will definitely be quarantining during the extended family gathering that afternoon.

Sunday, Feb. 21: vs. Penn State
Sunday, Feb. 28: at Ohio State

At first I thought that is a rough stretch and it is, but without fans is it really that big of an advantage oppose to being at home. Perhaps a little.

 

[Ronman]

Yeah, like four in a row over there. Gotta put an end to that.

 

[HawkRose]

Hate that we don't have Home and Home with IL

 

[NevadaHawk]

Stoked for the season to begin! Go Hawks! win the the B1G!

 

[The Deplorable Sleeping Dog]

Notwithstanding the Curse, the prospects simply shimmer. GO HAWKS!

It is. But great prep for the B1G and NCAA tourneys!

 

[hawktech]

I wish I could! I will be driving back to DSM.... Dangit. 5pm I could make.... Hopefully BTN has a replay later on Wednesday... At least I'll have the radio. That'll make the drive quicker.

Leas than 3 days until tipoff! Love it!

It is being replayed at 2 AM on Thanksgiving.

There are 6 games on BTN on Wednesday so not a lot of time for replays.

If you have the app you may be able to watch it sooner, but can't remember exactly how that works on there.

The refs can't hide it as much as they can with belligerent fans screaming like mad
