2024-2025 Big Ten Basketball Home and away is out.

NEBRASKA
Home: Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Rutgers, UCLA, USC
Away: Michigan State, Northwestern, Oregon, Penn State, Purdue, Washington, Wisconsin
Home/Away: Iowa, Maryland, Ohio State 

 

I wonder if Iowa is a protected home/away?  Did not see that they were doing that.

I'd guess they are doing one protected opponent for the original 14 and three for the Pac-4. Looks like everyone has its "rival" on the double play, if Ohio St's rival is Maryland and Penn St's is Rutgers.

 

Also looks like everyone has USC/UCLA paired either home or away and Ore/Wash paired either home or away. None of the original 14 hosts all 4 or visits all 4. I wonder if the B1G is going to try to schedule a single road trip for two games -- like a Thurs / Sat or Thurs / Sun when the original 14 go to LA or the Pacific NW and when those teams come east.

The West Coast teams all have each other for home and away.  It would be great if we could make the Eugene- Seattle trip on a Thursday-Saturday or Friday-Sunday.  It has to be a tough job building a schedule.

Looks like I’ll have to wait until next season for Pauley Pavilion, some of you old timers might know John Wooden was nearly the Coach of the Golden Gophers.

Bandon is very much worth the drive. We did it for the Oregon football game and highly recommend

Actually, it would have been more difficult if only USC & UCLA were added to the B1G....

You know...we finally collected our last road win trophy at Michigan this year meaning we have now finally gotten wins on the road vs every single Big Ten team (took us long enough too), and now there are four new venues we're gonna have to try to get wins at.  At least I think so, I don't know if we've ever won at any of the new Big Ten conference members' arenas.

 

Anybody here know our historical records against these new teams?

Gah, you're right.  We have yet to cross that one off the list.  I don't know why I have a mental block on that one...
