I know its long off, but does anybody know some of the teams we will be playing in out of conference
Hey All: Sorry for the hiatus I took over this past few months. I had too many computer problems, niece and nephew concerns I had to deal with, and it's just too hard to say no to Newport Beach weather. I have read a few threads over this past weekend, and I was wondering if I can have a play-by-play on our 2007-2008 schedule, i.e. what games do we have planned already (dates and all) or what teams do we know we are playing (OOC of course). I compute a lot of NYC, Philly, and the District, so if there are any good games (Temple, the Garden, Georgetown) that will be planned I would love to know. Thank you all for your help in this request.
Go Duke!
11/9 - N.C. Central
11/12 - New Mexico St
11/19-21 - Maui Invitational
11/27 - Wisconsin
12/1 - Davidson
12/17 - Albany St
1/6 - Cornell
No word yet on whether Kentucky, Kansas, Arizona, or UCLA will also be on the 2007-08 schedule.
I believe you can also count on the following non-conference:
Home: Michigan (probably 2nd week December), St. John's
Neutral: Maui (11/23-11/25), TBD in NYC (probably Pittsburgh on 12/20).
Probably Away: Temple.
1 game TBD. My guess this would be a midmajor played in Cameron between the NYC game and the Cornell game on 1/6. I know K likes to give long Christmas breaks, but that ends up being 17 days without some game in there.
Based on the various reports, this is what we know of the schedule so far:
30 games (Maui counts as 3 exempt games in addition to the 27 game regular season limit instituted last year):
Non-conference:
1. Fr. 11/9 - N.C. Central (H)- Time TBD, TV TBD
2. M. 11/12 - New Mexico St.(H) - Time TBD, ESPN2
3. M. 11/19 - Maui #1 - TBD, ESPN/ESPN2/ESPNU

6. Tu. 11/20 - Wisconsin (H) - 9p, ESPNHD (might play a weekend game at home before, but there don't appear to be enough games)
7. Sa. 12/1 - Davidson (@Charlotte) - TBD, TBD
8. TBD - Home game, could be St. John's, who we play at home (probably ESPN/ESPN2)
9. Sa. 12/8 (date not official) - Michigan (H) - TBD (afternoon), CBS
10. M. 12/17 - Albany (H) - TBD - ESPN2
11. Th. 12/20 - TBD @ MSG (Pitt is the rumor) - TBD, ESPN/ESPN2
12. TBD
13. Su. 1/6 - Cornell(H) - TBD, TBD (probably an FSN game)
14. TBD (Bet its 3/1 or 3/2) - Temple (A) TBD, ESPN/ESPN2

Clemson
GIT

UVa

MD (you just know one of these game is ESPN's ACC Wednesday at 9 on 3/5)
HOLES:
1st game (AWAY) is ACC game #8 (there is an extra week in the calendar this year, so the game is back to its customary spot and isn't game #10 like the last few years) Tu/We/Th 2/5/6/7 - 9p ESPN or ESPN2/R/LF
2nd game (HOME) - Sa. 3/8 - 9p - ESPNHD (Saturday Primetime, maybe Full Circle).

I need a life. Let's see how this compares to the official schedule in mid-August.
I thought we were gonna play Kansas in KC this year as they are opening a big, new arena. Anybody else heard something similar?

#Big 12/Pac-10 Harwood Series
Chuck, this link makes it sond like because of Maui, Duke cannot compete in another multi team even
http://www2.ljworld.com/news/2007/ma..._host_tourney/
and this link says Jayhawk "The early season event will allow both Arizona and Kansas to host the three mid-major teams, which have not yet been named, while the Wildcats and Jayhawks also will meet head-to-head in Lawrence, Kan., on Nov. 25."
Zona with its usual tough schedule could have a rough year with PAC 10 UCLA, Wash St, USC, Oregon and Sgtanford all projected to be better than Wildcats this year.

Since KS already has BC and GA Tech on its 2007-2008 schedule, unlikely they would schedule a third ACC team.

Has anyeone heard about any exhibition games? I heard a rumor that they will play Barton College (2007 Div. II National Champions).
Any word on if/when we are going to play there this season?
Somehow I see a "Blue Devil Invitational" with a championship game in NYC in years when we don't play in Maui/Alaska/PNIT.
The last game TBD is now EKU in Cameron.
Anyone know when the 2007-2008 Schedule is coming out? No ACC teams have released their schedules. I see that USC has, and quite a few other teams so it seems like it should be soon. Anyone know the exact date?
It was released around August 18th last season.
