That Nov 13th date at Providence is pretty early. Kind of surprised to see us on the road that early in the schedule versus a good opponent. Anxious to especially see the November, December schedule. Very curious about our December Big Ten games. Thanks for all your efforts on Gopher basketball.

You're welcome.

With that quality Providence game so early, I would bet the farm the Gophers' season opener on Nov. 10 or 11 will be one of the softest pastries on their schedule. Will want to make sure they're 1-0 heading to the Dunkin' Donuts Center to play the Friars.

Here's hopping we play the powerhouse of Niagara at Barclays as to minimize the impact to our SOS.
