2023-2024 IUBB Schedule

[Hovadipo]

Couldn't find a schedule thread for this season. Double/single plays released.

 

Here is what we have so far, via ITH:

• 2023 Empire Classic with UConn, Louisville and Texas at Madison Square Garden on Nov. 19 and Nov. 20, 2023
• vs. Kansas on Dec. 16, 2023
• Big Ten schedule
Home: Iowa, Michigan State, Northwestern
Away: Illinois, Michigan, Rutgers
Home/Away: Maryland, Minnesota, Nebraska, Ohio State, Penn State, Purdue, Wisconsin

Our conference opponents for the 2023-2024 season have just been announced, and as expected, because of our very tough schedule last year, our schedule this year is truly magically wonderfully excellent and full of double plays against likely bottom-dwellers:

Double Plays:

• Maryland,
• Minnesota,
• Nebraska,
• Ohio State,
• Penn State,
• Purdue, and
• Wisconsin

In Bloomington only:

• Iowa,
• Michigan State, and
• Northwestern 

 

Road only:

• Illinois
• Michigan
• Rutgers

This was reasonably expected, and is very, very nice.

By the way, our punching bag inferior cousins to the north will not have double plays against any of Nebraska, Penn State, or Minnesota.

Boy, the mods on this board leave a lot to be desired.  2 of them starting the same thread.  Sheesh!

Pretty reasonable draw for us. Big.

You just hate that for them.

"But, but, but...Why hasn't Braden Smith improved as a sophomore?!?"

(hint...it's because he doesn't get to stack his schedule with multiple games against Minny, PSU, and Nebraska the coming year).

Xavier Johnson might bully him worse than JHS did. Playing with your food.

Not playing at MSU is huge for us. We've won there twice since 1991.

X has some Russ to him in that he will absolutely delight in feasting on that kid.

Forget Smith….X is going to get completely Loyers skin.

Agree with your point, but wow is that depressing.

I will reserve my comments and opinions about next years B1G schedule until after each game has taken place. Learned my lesson this season, and will no longer take any team, regardless of the situation, for granted and will not label any match up prior. That L vs NW at home, ugh!

@ PU this year, Smith started hot and was peacocking at the first timeout. He was basically done producing, though.

JHS was terrific, no doubt, but the game turned when Trey put Smith in a vice after halftime.

X and Trey together…Loyer won’t get a clean catch or handoff.

Far be it from me to help PU but if Painter is going to play Loyer and Smith big minutes at guard they need JHS/Ivey/Carsten Edwards/Terrence Shannon-type production at the 3 IMO

ITH --

Indiana will host Harvard as part of its 2023-24 non-conference schedule, according to Jon Rothstein.  It’s the second non-conference home game to be revealed for next season.  The Hoosiers will also host Kansas on Saturday, December 16, 2023 at Assembly Hall.

Harvard finished last season 14-14. The Crimson are coached by Tommy Amaker. The two programs have only met once before. Indiana beat Harvard 97-76 on December 2, 1972 in Bloomington.

Nice top 150 KenPom opportunity.  Replacing teams ranked 300+ will help the metrics a great deal next year.  Love this.

I wonder if Ya had some influence in this. It could help recruiting if we show players from the south east that we're willing to play games in the area.

Woody doesn’t act like a scared coach that’s for sure. That will be a tough game.  The 2 in New York will be tough. Then the big East game.  That’s 4 really tough games. 1 at home, 3 “neutral” although 2 likely mostly road games.
