[RFMichigan]

CUC vs. UConn at Hartford tonight. The only question: Will CUC keep it within the 73 that CU-AA lost by to the University of Michigan?

[WLCALUM83]

Per the result on the UConn schedule, the answer to that question is "yes".

Opening Weekend is upon us!!

Friday, 11/15

Ripon vs Aurora: Spartans should be able to handle Ripon here.

Loras at Rockford: Not a clue on this one.

Wisconsin Lutheran at Lawrence: Too many new faces make it tough for the Warriors to win this one.

Martin Luther (MN) at Lakeland: Muskies have no trouble here.

Concordia Wisconsin at Carroll: CUW seems to be taking a step back this year. Carroll has big things in their sights this year.

Saturday 11/16

Martin Luther (MN) at Marian: Want to see where this Marian team goes this year in the NACC.

Concordia Chicago at Robert Morris-Chicago: Prove it to me CUC.

Aurora vs IWU: IWU wins this running away.
