Apparently the rumored Michigan State-North Carolina game on an aircraft carrier will happen in San Diego sometime in November. The aircraft carrier will be able to support a crowd of about 6,000, and there is a backup plan if it rains that day. ... they'll play the game below deck but with a much smaller capacity. Most of the tickets will go to servicemen/servicewomen.

That means Tom Izzo already has UNC and Duke (Champions Classic) on his 2011-12 schedule, not to mention whoever the Spartans draw in the Big Ten/ACC Challenge.

Speaking of nonconference games, here's hoping a little bit of Izzo rubs off on Tubby and the Gophers are able to pull off the rumored (according to Grandpa Sid) nonconference game vs. UCLA next season at the Xcel Center.
