2010-11 Schedule -- What We Know

November 22nd and 23rd CBE Basketball Tournament Semifinals and Finals in Kansas City, MO. This field is pretty loaded with Duke, Kansas State, Gonzaga, and Marquette all potentially matching up in KC.

November 29th Duke vs. Oregon Location TBA (Kyle's Homecoming Game with bonus of playing little brother EJ.)

December 1st Duke vs. Michigan State at Cameron Indoor Stadium.

December 4th vs. Butler in the IZOD Center E. Rutherford, NJ.

We'll also play Miami, NC State, and UVA twice as our home-and-home partners next year (in addition to the standard UNC-UMD pair). We'll play BC, GT, and Clemson only in Cameron, and FSU, VT, and WF only in their gyms.

Not a bad little schedule we've got on our hands next year. The early season stretch form November 22nd through December 4th should show the true measure of our team as Duke potentially plays two of Gonzaga, Marquette, and Kansas State, then goes home to eat Thanksgiving Dinner. The following Monday, we travel to Oregon to play the Ducks (maybe Kyle can stay out there) and with little rest, come back to play Michigan State in Cameron on December 1st. 3 days later we're in New Jersey for an encore of the National Title game against a tough Butler team.

So much for Duke not scheduling tough opponents...
