Can't say we don't play anybody! lol Hellacious schedule. We surely won't be marked down due to a weak schedule.

Borderline blue blood...

Amazing opportunity for the Zags. No 1 ranking and no 1 seed.

[Bogozags]

That’s a tough OOC schedule to say the least...

November 10th is the season opener against NC Central. That should be all 15 non-con games with 16 conference games.

15 potential games have now been scheduled. It is safe to assume that Gonzaga's out of conference schedule is now complete.

Have we ever stormed the court at the MAC? When was the last home court floor storming?

[Reborn]

Is the Arizona game going to be played in the Kennel?

The one instance that I seem to recall with my admittedly faulty memory was the Stanford Game Day match. As to our OOC schedule, I sure hope we get to see it happen; lots of great games for sure! Unfortunately I am hearing speculation that the season may be limited to conference play after the first of the new year.

I watch a lot of college basketball.
I’ve never heard of Tarleton State or Bellarmine. Are they D1? New? Made up?

New to D1.

Some way, some how, I dearly hope that schedule gets played out.

Few knows he put together the best team on paper in the country, and he wants to let them loose to prove it. That's a players' coach. They bought in and committed to GU to be the best and he went out and scheduled like a No. 1 team, not hiding to stack up wins. He's got his kids' backs. Wanted to let the prove it.

I have all my doubts but I have no doubt they'll do the right thing, whatever it is, and that is a schedule that anyone could be proud of.

[NotoriousZ]

Dug this thread out of page 5 or 6, I think it could be a good idea to make it a sticky. The schedule is going to get many updates soon!

[ZagsGoZags]

is the game with Baylor still getting cooked up in the back of the kitchen?

Very happy this was not one of our Maui years......

At least they’ll get to play the games.

It will be really interesting to see how the OOC shapes up with a start date of Nov 21, or 23, or 25/
What does this do to the games that were previously scheduled? A number were before this date.

From another thread:
Nov. 13 at Texas (Austin)
Nov. 17 vs USC (Portland)
Nov. 20 vs North Florida (Spokane)
Nov. 22 vs Cal State Bakersfield (Spokane)
Nov. 26-29 vs 3 of Boise St/Auburn/Xavier/Michigan State/Siena/Belmont/St. Louis (Orlando Invitational)
Dec. 5 vs Arizona (Spokane)
Dec. 8?? vs Tennessee (New York Jimmy V Classic)
Dec. 12 vs Washington (Spokane)
Dec. 14 vs Tarleton State (Spokane)
Dec. 19 vs Texas Tech (Phoenix)
Dec. 21 vs Bellarmine (Spokane)


I wonder which games the Zags will keep, which they will jettison and who the might add.

Hope this happens, the Orlando Invit and Tennessee for the Jimmy V is a good start to the non con schedule. Other side of the Jimmy V is Baylor and Rutgers. Maybe that will be 2 or 3 games instead of just the one against UT.

I have to imagine this is where/when that Baylor game that was announced will happen.

Rutgers should be pretty good this season too so it'd be great to add that matchup as well. I don't recall Gonzaga ever playing Rutgers.

[SorenTodd45]

I hope we get to keep the game vs NAU. My cousin's son goes to that school, and it's a beautiful campus. I wish the game would be at the Walkup Skydome, but we can't have everything.

[ZagsGoZags]

Does anybody know of the status of the game with Baylor at this point?

Nothing solid yet, but the assumption is that it will be played in the Orlando Bubble.

A game against Baylor could potentially be the Jimmy V Classic Championship Game
