RUBillsFan Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 It's going to be 19 home games this year. http://www.slubillikens.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=27200&ATCLID=209600513 "The 2014-15 schedule, which will be released in the coming weeks, features 19 home contests. The Billikens’ A-10 home and away matchups were announced earlier this year. SLU will host four A-10 squads that reached the NCAA Tournament last season – Dayton, UMass, Saint Joseph’s and VCU." Good call. I guess there is a chance they start a new home & home at home this year, but that seems unlikely. I would guess as long as we are in the A10 w the 18 game schedule we'll see a similar format as this year that you outlined. The key will be to get decent buys and make sure the non-buys aren't against crappy teams. We need SIU to step it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slufan13 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 2 of the home games are vs crappy teams from the Corpus Christi Tournament. I think the teams possible are Mississippi Valley St, NC A&T, Radford, and Texas A&M Corpus Christi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kshoe Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 VCU announced their non con schedule today. Tennessee in Annapolis TOLEDO MARYLAND EASTERN SHORE Villanova in Brooklyn Oregon/Michigan in Brooklyn @Old Dominion @Illinois St VIRGINIA NORTHERN IOWA BELMONT @Cincinnati ETSU CLEVELAND ST That's the kind of schedule I'd like. 5 Power 5 opponents, one historical rival in ODU and 2 MVC teams.

Still with all their big name cachet they can't get a BCS team to play them at home, besides the obligated in state rival. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder what Virginia has to gain by playing VCU?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetorch Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 ... the obligated in state rival... Wonder what Virginia has to gain by playing VCU?? Virginia is not obligated by law to play other in state teams but they have in the recent past played ODU, GMU, and VCU. Shake Smart called out the other scools in the media a couple years ago, saying the best teams in Virginia played in the CAA. Suddenly he had games against Va tech and Virginia.

cheeseman Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 As I have stated before, I have no interest in playing Missouri anymore. After the girl keeps telling you that she has to wash her hair you finally realize that there are plenty of other girls out there who want to be with you and you will be better off with them.

Cowboy Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 -it would seem that until a new athletic director is in place in Boone County there won't be any movement on this very beaten and extremely overworked topic, but we'll continue to rehash it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoop Posted August 20, 2014 Author Share Posted August 20, 2014 Any word on our home opener? I'm guessing it will be Sat Nov 8th since there is a comedy show the night before. Seems like its always a team from the OVC in recent years. Give us the schedule already! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
