@OU_MBBall: Be on the lookout tomorrow for our 2014 non-conference schedule. 16 opponents/potential opponents combined to go 332-203 last year. #Sooners

Thanks!

Can't wait. Time to make some travel plans.

I think Kruger got away from doing this, but I'd love it if we had a game in Norman that was on the same day as one of the last two home football games. Used to make a day of it and attend both events.

All that means to me is that I can buy a cheap ticket, and move down near the court.

I assumed it was due to the kick-off times not being named until 12 to 6 days beforehand.

The downside is it takes away from Kruger, staff & players being able to fully enjoy the football gameday themselves.

Nah. In the past they'd just schedule the basketball game at a certain time, and change it if it conflicted with the football game. They did that a couple of times before LK got to OU. And attendance really doesn't matter, b/c it was usually one of those terrible opponents that wouldn't draw a good crowd no matter when you played them.

Probably just LK's preference, and that is fine. I just found it convenient for myself.
