BU will play 34 regular-season games in addition to a pair of exhibition contests. Fourteen of those regular-season tilts will take place at Agganis Arena, including a Nov. 23 game against Notre Dame and a Jan. 14 matchup with Cornell, which will mark the first time since Nov. 24-25, 2001, that Cornell visits BU.
