Will play Hawai'i in the first round of Diamond Head Classic. Tip-off -- Midnight CT. Plan accordingly.

With the chance of Wichita State in the 2nd rd if we both win!

Here is the Article that talks about the dates and times of the games.

This works out perfectly from an RPI perspective. Even though this is a tourney, the game against Hawaii counts as a road game for RPI purposes (meaning a road win actually counts as 1.4 wins). 

And presuming Nebraska wins in Round 1, they get a nice RPI boost by playing Wichita St. in round 2 (WSU should have a very good record again this year). And then regardless of whether Nebraska wins or loses in round 2, they probably end up playing one of the two good teams (GW or Colorado) from the other side in the 3rd place game. All in all, can't ask for a much better draw in terms of RPI.

Remember the last time played Hawai in one of dese tourneys dere? Homer central.

He's done, would've been fun to play him.

[Navin R. Johnson]

I'm surprised they have us playing Hawaii first round. We have to be one of the better teams in the tournament and you would think they would want the host team to advance. Not saying they can't beat us but there are other teams that seem to be a better draw for Hawaii.

Define "play"...

This is for 2015, but I didn't know if it warranted its own thread:

 

 

...a four team event, we'll get two games out of those three opponents.

LOVE IT! Might need to start that super early scheduling thread...

[royalfan]

Going to be a late one.  Game before us starts at 10 so in reality we won't get going to 12:30 or so.

A winnable game for us and a chance to get a solid non-con road win under our belt.  FSU is always long and athletic but beatable...and, I've never been blown away by their home court advantage.

According to an article on LJS, the regular season home opener will be on November 15 (Saturday) or 16 (Sunday). We play Central Arkansas on the 18th, so I think the game will be on the 15th. Husker football plays at Wisconsin on the 15th, likely at either 11:00 AM or 2:30 PM. So the opener should be a night game. I could see the opener on the 14th as well.

Holy crap the OSU doesn't play anybody in the preseason except for about two games.

I thought the same thing. They've got bigger names, we've got more depth, I think.
