San Diego State men’s basketball announced its 2020-21 season schedule Tuesday – just eight days before the team tips off its first game.
An initial conference-based schedule was announced on Oct. 9 but was changed a month later due to challenges posed by COVID-19. The new schedule reduces travel between conference opponents and adds flexibility if a coronavirus outbreak were to occur.
“This is probably the toughest schedule that we’ve played in my 20 years here,” Head Coach Brian Dutcher said after the revised schedule was announced. “We’re going to be challenged right away and I told the team that we have to be at our best early in the season.
