Memphis will play Wichita State in a neutral site game next season as a part of its non-conference schedule. The game will be played in Sioux Falls, South Dakota at the Sanford Pentagon, and will likely be in early November

Wait, What?

[Shock Top]

In South Dakota??

I guess that REALLY is neutral..

[KochHead22]

Like it, besides the randomness of where the game is.

[NCAABound]

Quick - somebody check for any top notch recruits in that area!

[martymoose]

I guess we truly will play anyone ANYWHERE....

Just looked up that Sanford Pentagon listed as the venue for this game and it's the home of the Sioux Falls Skyforce (NBA D-League) but only holds 3250 spectators.

This has to be some sort of joke, a funny one though.

Next thing you know, WSU will be playing SDSU in Billings, MT..

Well, the memphis fans over there seem to think it is serious. This has to be one of the most bizarre things, if true, in regards to scheduling in a while.

Where are the Memphis fans going to sit?

So...

We arent gonna be in the AAC next year?

I was hesitant to post it after reading where it would be played. Could still be an early April Fools joke.

There are MTEs played in gyms that hold less people, so maybe this is going to be similar, but in a non-tournament format.

It's kind like those games Gonzaga played against Duke in Madison Square Garden, only it is in South Dakota.

What a weird choice. Makes you think it will be tied in to some sort of early season tip-off event.

Nevertheless, always great to have a neutral court game against a good opponent lined up.
