- Missouri State gets swapped in to replace Indiana State (roughly an even trade)
- Our home opener goes from March 13th to February 27 (brrr)
- "Homecoming" probably moves from April 17 to April 3
- Our game at SDSU is on March 6th, which is the same weekend as the Summit League basketball tournament in Sioux Falls (Scott Holland of the McDonough County Voice speculates that they might move that game a day earlier to 3/5 because of that).
2021 Season (Spring-ish)
So...

I'd imagine most of their fans (or as many as will be allowed) would be in Sioux Falls for the tournament. They're much more of a basketball school generally.

The Summit League Men's and Women's basketball tournaments will be held without fans and moved to a smaller venue in Sioux Falls.
It originally was slated for the Denny Sanford Premier Center which seats about 12,000. It will now be held at the 3,250-seat Sanford Pentagon.
