2014-15 Big East Basketball Conference Schedule Released

The Big East finally released the conference schedule for the 2014-15 season on Tuesday. With the round robin scheduling of the 10 Big East teams the mystery wasn’t who would play each other twice as was the case with the prior version of the Big East but more about timing of road trips and fans being able to lock in on dates on their calendars.

I have updated the 2014-15 Schedule page which is always in the top menu. This has the full schedule with non-conference and now conference matchups. Also included is the television network that the game will be played on (where known at this point).

The popular Big East New Years Eve conference season kickoff is back for the second consecutive year on Fox Sports 1. The Friars will be game 4 of the day and will tip off at 7:30pm vs. Creighton at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center which will be a cool rematch of the Big East Tournament Championship game. The full NYE schedule is (all games will be broadcast on Fox Sports 1):

  • 12:00pm St. John’s at Seton Hall
  • 2:30pm Butler at Villanova
  • 5:00pm Marquette at DePaul
  • 7:30pm Creighton at Providence
  • 10:00pm Georgetown at Xavier

Providence College Basketball 2014-15 Schedule So Far

On June 18th, Brendan McGair of the Pawtucket Times tweeted that he was hearing PC would play Stonehill for one of the exhibition games this upcoming season. I was able to confirm that report and have added them to the 2014-15 schedule page that is linked at the top of the site.

The non-conference schedule looks pretty challenging overall and features a few interesting opponents at interesting venues like Kentucky at Rupp Arena, Miami at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn and the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame Tipoff at Mohegan Sun. I’ll be doing an in-depth preview of each and every non-conference opponent as the season draws closer so keep an eye open for those previews which will most likely be done weekly beginning in the middle of August.

Providence Non-Conference Schedule Update

On Sunday night, the Providence Journal’s Kevin McNamara reported that Ed Cooley is “putting the finishing touches on a schedule “that may be too hard” and features home games against Rhode Island and Massachusetts, a trip to preseason No. 1-ranked Kentucky, a return to the Barclays Center in Brooklyn for a game against Miami, and games against Florida State and Notre Dame in the Hall of Fame Tip-off at Mohegan Sun casino.”

This morning Jon Rothstein tweeted that the Miami game will be part of a doubleheader with Manhattan vs. Fordham and will be played on 12/22/14. This confirms a previous report from John Rooke who hinted at this last week.

Let’s take a look at what we know so far:
