Racers will host Mississippi Valley State
MBB: It'll be the first home game of the Ryan Miller era
Murray State announced Monday afternoon the Racers will host Mississippi Valley State in the home opener on Friday, November 7th.
This will be the first-ever meeting between the Racers and the Delta Devils. Mississippi Valley State finished 3-28 last season, winning just one Division I game. Out of 364 Division I teams last year, MVSU finished #364 in both the KenPom ratings and the NCAA Net rankings.
With today’s announcements, here’s how this season’s non-conference schedule looks at this moment:
TBA — Home vs. Little Rock (Back end of a home-and-home series that started in 2023-24)
November 7 — vs. Mississippi Valley State
November 11 — at SMU
November 23 — vs. Middle Tennessee (Cayman Islands Classic)
November 24 — vs. McNeese (Cayman Islands Classic)
November 25 — vs. George Washington (Cayman Islands Classic)
December 2 — vs. Morehead State
December 13 — vs. Akron (in Henderson, Nevada at the Jack Jones Classic)
With 20 conference games, Murray State still has three non-conference games to announce to complete their slate for next season. The Missouri Valley’s conference schedule likely won’t be released until closer to September.
