Butler to open Big East competition against Villanova on New Year's Eve

According to SportsNola.com writer Lenny Vangilder, Butler will host Villanova on New Year's Eve, December 31st, to begin Big East play.  This game is the fourth game of a five game marathon on the new channel Fox Sports 1.  December 31 is a Tuesday this year, so I would imagine this game would be the Bulldogs' second game following Christmas.  They will most likely play their last non-conference game on Saturday, December 28.

Also, I was sad to hear that David Woods will not be covering Butler basketball for the Indianapolis star anymore.  He did a great job covering games, scheduling, recruiting, coaches' and players' perspectives, and I enjoyed reading his "Bulldog bits" at the end of each article.  He is part of what inspired me to start writing this blog, so I will miss his coverage a lot.  I wish him the best of luck covering Olympic sports for the Star in the future.

Stay tuned for more Bulldog schedule updates!
