UCLA men’s basketball releases official schedule for 2014-2015 season

UCLA basketball’s full 2014-2015 season schedule was released Monday night.

In late July, the program released a tentative schedule but the pencil markings were traced over in ink Monday night.

For the upcoming season, some dates to circle on the calendar are:

  • Nov. 14: UCLA tips off its season versus Montana State on a Friday at 9 p.m. at Pauley Pavilion.
  • Nov. 26-28: The Bruins travel to the Bahamas for the Battle 4 Atlantis tournament, featuring many topflight programs.
  • Dec. 20: At the United Center in Chicago, UCLA and Kentucky square off in a marquee non-conference game.
  • Jan. 2: UCLA opens Pac-12 play on the road at Colorado
  • Feb. 21: In the teams’ lone meeting of the season, UCLA plays at Pac-12 powerhouse Arizona

Overall, UCLA basketball will be televised on the ESPN family of networks at least 10 times this season, and all 31 games will be televised live.

Also of note, there will be more Wednesday night Pac-12 home games (3) than the customary Thursday night conference home games (2).
