However, it's good to see all the saturday games are at night. Love hitting the bowl, coming down to sitting back for a couple hours, have a couple PBRs and head to the game.

What's with all of the sunday games?

Looks like the Griz Sunday games fall into two categories:

1. FBS conferences tend to prefer Sunday hoops games. If a FCS/I-AAA program chooses to play a body-bag game, they tend to have to play by those rules.

2. BSC-ordered Sunday games for the convenience of TV. Many conferences have a tie-in to things like ESPN's Big Monday. I wouldn't be surprised if there were a similar thing on Altitude, which seems to cover the vast majority of in-conference Sunday games. The Weber Sunday game may well be a local TV game.
 
Good to see Griz hosting a round robin basketball tournament, something the Lady Griz have often done.

January 3rd will definitely be interesting for Griz-Cat fans. A day-night double header. lady Griz vs CAts will be playing at 2 pm same day.

I will be missing the Santa Clara game. :crybaby:

I will be in the vicinity of the Duke game but not close enough, so will be missing that also. :crybaby:

Have to agree with the OOC home schedule. It sucks.

Texas-Arlington (17-11), Mississippi Valley State (15 - 15) are the only teams that finished .500 or above last year.

Griz will be playing Portland State before Christmas in a conference game.

Griz at WSU on a sunday is because of TV. BSC scheduled a game each sunday last winter on sunday to be shown on Altitude.
So, judging by this game, looks like they will be doing the same thing.

Griz at WSU is NOT on a sunday but on a saturday. Should have noticed it earlier.
