Not a bad schedule at all. Nice to see Oklahoma State back on the schedule.

:goshocks:

[Shocker85]

It is a very good schedule, other than the MVC tournament being in Bugaha.

--'85.

I guess there's a new rule out there that games can't start after 6:30 now?

Nice schedule. Hopefully we can use it to our advantage.


Omaha = lame. 2,000/game tops.

I hadn't noticed the 6:30 start times. Is that an NCAA rule, MVC rule, or something else? A short search revealed no 'official' rule chage about start time - there are plenty of other rule changes here. Starting earlier will take a little getting used to, but I'll probably like games ending a bit earlier. It appears there will be a pitch and inning clock as well - a change I will welcome.

It must be NCAA, if anything, because even the non-conference games are all set up that way. Kinda weird. Maybe the NCAA thought 10:00 or 10:30 was a bit too late for the boys?

Yeah, the pitch/inning clock will help things move along more smoothly.

I guess it isn't a rule but just a trend.

Perhaps the coaches have gotten together on the earlier start times. I looked yesterday at several big name programs (Texas, AZ State, Fla St., and others and 6PM or 6:30PM starts are common.

+1.

Nice sched.

[tru2thaduce]

We have a nice schedule on the road.I think our home slate sucks.

[ShockerFever]

I think our home slate sucks.

Can't really disagree. Our best non-con series against a Pac-10 team is once again in the middle of freaking March.. :roll:

The reason for the earler start time is to hopefully draw a bigger crowd to the game. Earlier start time = Earlier ending time. So people that have young children could feel better about bring their kids out to the game and getting them in bed sooner, etc.

[tru2thaduce]

I really miss Arkansas,Oklahoma,Long Beach,Fullerton,ect on our schedule.I know there are reasons we don't play them anymore but I do miss those matchups.

[shoxlax]

I predict a meltdown on this board sometime in February.
