WATCH: UConn's Paige Bueckers, Kamorea Arnold, and more announce 2024-2025 Big East schedule in hilarious way
After putting notes on Paige Bueckers and the entire UConn crew during their hallway walks, the Huskies social media team has pulled off another stunt. Instead of doing it like most programs, the Huskies released their Big East schedule through their lineup.
In the latest endeavor, Bueckers, Kamorea Arnold and the UConn roster are showcased in their natural element. However, as the cameraman mentions a potential matchup, the players pretend to be disturbed by their chore at hand to inquire about the face-off.
"The 2024-25 BIG EAST schedule is HERE‼️" the program wrote on its Instagram post.
The Huskies will face 10 fellow conference programs for 18 matchups. Beginning December 15 against Georgetown, they will play Providence on the 29th.
With that, Marquette Golden Eagles present the first matchup of the new year, on January 1, followed by Villanova (January 2 and 22), Xavier (8th), a rematch against Georgetown (11th), St.John's (15th), Seton Hall (19th) and Creighton (25th).
Moreover, February presents the second leg against Providence Friars (9th), St. John's (12th), Seton Hall (19th), Bluejays (27th), and two matchups against Butler Bulldogs (February 2 and 22nd).
Paige Bueckers and UConn up for a tough season
UConn Huskies will open their season by playing three games in first eight days. Fort Hayes on November 3 (exhibition), Boston University on November 7 and South Florida on November 10.
They will then face the North Carolina Tar Heels and Fairleigh Dickinson (15th and 20th) before heading towards two neutral site games in the Bahamas. They will kick things off against Oregon in the Baha Mar games, with Boston College or Ole Miss being the second matchup.
Another neutral arena game comes on December 7 in Brooklyn against Louisville for the Women's Champions Classic. The squad then partakes in the Basketball Hall of Fame Women's Showcase against Iowa State on the 17th.
Moreover, alongside Holy Cross (3rd), the Huskies also face their rival Notre Dame and a restocked USC in December, potentially becoming the most tiring stretch for the youngsters.
The two other rival games in UConn’s schedule are also on the road, the Lady Vols on February 6 and the non-conference stretch’s last game against the reigning champions South Carolina Gamecocks on February 16.
