Lets all post games that we should get to look forward to next year. It always brightens my mood if I have something to look forward too.

Gonzaga OOC so far:
vs Arizona
vs Washington
vs Texas Tech in Phoenix
At Texas

Orlando Invitational Teams: Auburn, Belmont, Boise St., Michigan St, St. Louis, Sienna, and Xavier
Hopefully we get to play Auburn and Michigan St in this tournament. Gonzaga has played Michigan St in those "Secret Schrimages" the last two years and beat them convincingly both times. Would love to see them play in a game that matters.

Also, I'm stoked that Kansas and Gonzaga just scheduled a future Home and Away. Good on Kansas for deciding to come out to Spokane. This "Mid Major" sure has come a long way in 20 years.
 
UVA is in the Wooden Legacy with Georgetown, UCLA, and Kansas. My guess is we'll get matched up with Georgetown and play UCLA/Kansas (but not both).

We also have the ACC-B1G challenge opponent. No clue who we'll play but we should definitely get a home game after playing the last two seasons on the road (W at Maryland, big L at Purdue).
 
Michigan in London
@UofL
Kansas in Chicago
home game in the Big12/SEC challenge
Neutral vs UCLA in the cbs sports classic?(I’m not actually 100% sure this was renewed)

There’s rumors that we’re working on one more big one.

I guess there's a chance UVa draws us.
UW/FSU/UVa all played away games in 2019. At least one of them likely will play another away game in 2020.

Not a lot known right now. Unsure how much Hamilton will schedule up with the team breaking in some new go to guys.

Here’s what we do know:
1. We will have our annual beat down of UF
2. We will play someone pretty decent in the ACC/Big 10 challenge.
3. We are in a loaded Charleston Classic: FSU/Tennessee/Seton Hall/Houston/Okie State/VCU/Penn State/College of Charleston
 
Duke in the Champions Classic. Seems we end up playing Duke every year.

Likely UNC or Virginia in the Big Ten ACC challenge.

Orlando invitational with Gonzaga and Auburn.

The Gavitt games. Likely Nova or Creighton.

I’m probably missing some that will be scheduled later

Michigan will play.....

11/14 - at Oregon

11/19 - Empire Classic (NYC) two of Baylor, Nova, NC State

12/1 - ACC Challenge, home game, better than 50/50 it is Louisville

12/6 - Kentucky (London)

Probably six low majors to fill out rest of the non con
 
Duke in the Champions Classic. Seems we end up playing Duke every year.

Accurate. 9 times during the past decade, which is kind of crazy for teams that don't have a home-and-home.

3x during the ACC/Big Ten Challenge
3x during the Champions Classic
3x during the NCAA Tournament ('13, '15, and '19)

Yeah it would be a nice rivalry if we could put up a fight. You guys own us.
 
Maui Invitational---UNC, Texas, Providence, Alabama, UNLV, Davidson and Stanford. Not a great field, TBH.
Gavitt Games---TBA
CrossRoads Classic---VS Butler
ACC/B10---Road game

Not sure after that...

Duke will be in the battle for Atlantis with WVU, Creighton, Ohio State, Memphis, Wichita State, Utah and Texas A&M and this should be the best early season tournament field. Teams from all power 5 conferences. Should be a great test for my Mountaineers.
 
We get to beat Kentucky next year OOC

So far Purdue's non-con is:
  • Notre Dame in the Crossroad Classic in Indy
  • WVU in NYC
  • Yale in Mackey
  • ACC-B1G challenge game (we had a home game this year, but that doesn't disqualify being at home again)
  • Gavitt game against the Big East (played away this past year)
  • Rider in Mackey
  • Cancun Tourney -- 2 of Illinois State/Mississippi St/Clemson

I know Michigan comes to Eugene. I'm excited for that one. The home and homes are dying in college basketball so I'm excited to play a big time program like Michigan at home.

What about a Gavitt game in Mackey? Or am I remembering wrong?
 
ACC/BT Challenge TBD home
Gavitt games BE/BT TBD away

after that is to be determined even the preseason Tourney

that ussually is not annonced until May with the OOC games till the end of 1st part of June.

kind of curious has to who they will/can get for their OOC, considering the preseason rankings for the upcoming season.

my biggest hop is the lowest team will be 199. as I know the tourney people can't get 8 top level teams in their event.

question is there still the preseason NIT? if so would like to see Iowa in that one to avoid playing teams in the 300 range.
