2010-11 Schedule Update



Via Philly.com, the Temple Owls have scheduled a date with death to come into Cameron Indoor Stadium on February 23rd, 2011. Best known for John Chaney (my hero for his press conference tirade at Calimari) and Bill Cosby's Jello Pudding Pops, the Owls should have their hands full coming into Cameron. Duke carries a 77 game non conference home winning streak into the 2011 season, and as long as they can survive an early, tough test from the Michigan State Spartans, should have an even longer streak going.

By that time, Coach K will have surpassed Deano for career wins and then some. February 23rd, 2009, Duke was at 23 wins. Hit that mark next year, and K will have twelve more wins than The Nose. Let's hope it happens on Coach K Court...

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...
