This past weekend the upcoming basketball schedule was released. With Big Blue Madness getting the fans ready for the season on October 17th, the Cats are sure to start the season off with a bang, The secong game of the season will be against the likely preseason #1 UNC. We have an early January date with little brother U of L. Here is the schedule and my predictions for the outcomes:
