Week One: Games of Interest

[visitingcock]

I consider a “ basketball week to end on Sunday rather than begin on Sunday. Why? Because polls are released on Mondays.

“games of interest” generally means non-conference games between probable tournaments teams

November 9:
1 SCar @ 5 NC State (ESPN)

November 12:
22 Arizona vs 6 Louisville (ESPN U, 4:30) at So Dakota
15 Tenn @ UCF (6 pm)
1 SCar @ South Dakota (ESPN NEWS, 7 pm)

November 14:
Arkansas @ 2 UConn (Fox?, 1 pm)
25 Texas @ 3 Stanford (ESPN, 3 pm)
13 Kentucky @ 8 Indiana (ESPN, 5 pm)

post some others that I’ve missed, and I’ll add them.

 

[LETTERL]

Flying under the radar is the season opener for Nicholls on Tuesday, November 9th. They travel to Baton Rouge to be the opening opponent of the Kim Mulkey era at LSU.

Dobee has 5 seniors leading the Colonels this season.

 

[UCFKnights]

November 12th Tennessee at UCF(ESPN+). Should be a good indicator of what to expect from UCF this season

I’ll take UCF in a nail biter.

Don't know if I'll "take them" - but I'll pull for them.

How is there a top 5 matchup that isn't nationally broadcast? Damn shame if you ask me.

The South Carolina/NC State game will be on ESPN.

 

[Vowelguy]

The South Carolina/NC State game will be on ESPN.

thanks for the correction

 

[triaddukefan]

11/9 @ 5pm. Elon at High Point. First regular season game at the brand new Qubein Arena. Throw out the record books when the UCC's and the UMC's (Methodists) meet up on the hardwood.

 

[visitingcock]

The South Carolina/NC State game will be on ESPN.

State and ACC Network initially had the TV rights but it looks like the flagship network came in and took the rights from the Ocho.

Thank you. I am quite familiar with ESPN3.

I’m fairly certain Vowelguy understands what I am asking. For the benefit of others, with UConn’s move to the Big East SNY games were no longer available on ESPN3. Last season the SNY games were streamed on Fox.

 

[Argonaut]

Soooo... my University of Providence Lady Argos are already two games into their season and have a slate of games coming up this week/weekend. (I know this probably isn't what visitingcock was looking to add to the list, but if you're itching for some early WBB and it isn't past your bedtime... lol.)

Wednesday 9PM (eastern) - @ Arizona Christian (Glendale, AZ) - Watch Live
Friday 11:15PM (eastern) - @ San Diego Christian (Santee, CA) - Watch Live
Saturday 10PM (eastern) - @ Saint Katherine (San Marcos, CA) - Watch Live

Actually, I had to look it up. I'm not familiar with the Trey. The Ocho? Yes, but not the Trey

OH! Actually I didnt know what you were asking bc I had completely forgotten that the games were streamed on Fox last year. Thanks for reminding me.

The Montana University of Providence... okay. I was trying to figure out why the RI school would play out west.
I believe St Katherine College is in San Marcos, not Encinitas.

When they were rebranding from the University of Great Falls to the University of Providence, I voiced a number of times that anyone outside of Montana would automatically think Rhode Island, but what did I know? Apparently the price tag isn't too outlandish to rename a struggling university after yourself, even if it doesn't make sense to the masses...

Noted on the location of (I'm assuming...) Saint Katherine's!

I typed (S-K with no dash in it) and Steven Krajewski came up. I since corrected it. Have to ask @Biff what happened.
