Let’s try this again.
After having Wednesday’s season opener against Columbus State cancelled due to COVID-19 issues among the visitors, Tom Crean’s team will (we think) begin play this afternoon at 2:00 at Stegeman Coliseum against the Florida A&M Rattlers.
The Rattlers finished 12-15 last season, and a respectable 10-6 in the MEAC. But that record included a nine game losing streak to start the season against the likes of Tennessee, USC, and Seton Hall, before eventually catching Iowa State for an upset win. This FAMU team usually plays a front-loaded schedule and has experience against big time basketball teams.
