i never understood why it takes so long for the upcoming season schedules for bball to come out and football schedules are known 3 or 4 years in advance :glare:

Compared to some on the board I am a novice, so I am not sure this is really accurate but here are my assumptions:

1. There are three times as many games to fill.
2. Games seem to be dropped and added more often.
3. College basketball coaches to have more control and leverage with scheduling, because of 1 and 2, and try to tailor their schedules from year to year based on their teams perceived ability.

Correct on all three points.

Basketball also has alot of tournaments that send invitations every year. These can definitely affect how you would finish up or start your schedule.

Maaaaaaaaan. That's going to be an early morning for the 1500 students who will actually get to go to the game...

Seems like we end the SEC season at home against the Cats, that has the makings for a game with a ton of implications for both teams.

Hopefully Gus Johnson or Bill Rafferty will call that one.

Probably should've looked at the link...nevermind there's still a week left after our matchup.

Why wouldn't it be? It's the CBS game.

Yeah, it looks like they're ending the season a week later because of the leap year's effect on the calendar. I am hoping our last home game will be on the weekend so I can go. UT has ended the last two seasons on the road. I will also definitely be at that Sunday home game against UK.
