2016 Barclays Classic

[SFspidur]

A lot better than Pepperdine at MSG...

Outstanding! OSC

This is good. I hope BC and K-State are improved next year, BC has not been very good for awhile and K-State has been in a downward spiral.

Wow. Awesome tourney!

 

[SpiderHoops32]

Great news!

 

[Eight Legger]

Sounds good. Is this an actual two-game event or just a one-day thing?

 

[MolivaManiac]

HELL FREAKING YES!

 

[SFspidur]

It's an exempt tournament, so the usual four-game event. Two games against low-level teams at home followed by two games each among the headliners at Barclays. The lower-level teams will have their own bracket played at a different site so that everybody involved gets four games.

Nice to see 2 good tourneys in a row after the MSG debacle last year.

As was said though BC and K-State haven't exactly been great programs in the past couple of years, but next year is a long way away, its nice to get our exempt tournament locked in early. Headlining with 3 BCS programs is pretty nice. Hope we get a game with Maryland.

I'll never complain about getting a game against BC or K-State, even in a down year.

Maryland projected as a possible Top 10 program by the Washington Post last week. BC and KS in rebuilding mode, but will not be pushovers.

Agreed... We always are looking for BCS opponents--down year or not--who cares if it a down year for them. Its a BCS program, and we will get some attention from the game no matter what.
