    Yes, this is why. It's going to be a terrible atmosphere but still should be a cool experience. Evening games so I assume they won't be putting up the new $5 million blackout curtains on the roof that the NCAA is requiring for the Final Four.

    One of those events where 75% of the people in the stands are watching the big screen.

    Any word if any of us lowly mid majors get paid for these games? Or, are we doing it out of the goodness of our hearts for the almighty gophers?

    the final four is going to be at US Bank stadium this season. Its obvious theyre trial running it with 4 games to work out the kinks, usually these stadiums host a certain region of the NCAA tournament before its a Final Four host...but USBS is going right to the top.

    Giving it a "gopher classic" name to it makes it sound professional since Gophers/Oklahoma St is the marquee game in the UofM's back yard.

    I dont think basketball has ever been played inside of it.

    Both UND and SDSU home games are on Saturday, not during break so maybe the league is figuring out how to schedule.

    UND & SDSU home games finally look good, should be great atmosphere for both of those games but this schedule is all over the place. We really need to get back to having 10 teams in the league to make the schedule more consistent.

    Anybody have the time to put together the complete home schedule thus far for the entire season? Perhaps on a calendar or at least put the day of the week behind the date... Maybe if I get some time tonight I'll do it myself, but if someone has a quick way to do it, it'd be appreciated. Would greatly increase my chances of getting the wife back on board for renewing tickets.

    I am so sick of the Bison already. Win this, win that, blah, blah, blah. I'd really, really like to know how they do it. I swear they have to be the luckiest sob's on the planet. Just sick of this bs, just fed up.

    All home games currently scheduled will be played Thursday-Sunday with a majority of those on Saturdays. Should definitely help attendance not having those early/mid week games we had last year. Looks like we are at 27 games so far, we've had 29 or 30 games pretty much every season so I would expect to see a couple more added plus an exhibition game, liking the schedule a lot this year.

    It's really good to see two Valley teams on there and the ISU and Gonzaga games. A little jealous of the SDSU-UNI game, but at least we got Drake there.

    This schedule looks much better than past years.
