The 2018-19 season tips off on Tuesday, which is an odd night for a season opener — not only is it Election Day/Night, it’s the first time the Bluejays have begun a campaign on a Tuesday since 1991, and the first time at home since 1986. Both of those teams began the year against Iowa State; Tony Barone’s ’86 crew won 80-65, while Rick Johnson’s ’91 squad lost 92-75. For that matter, it’s been over a decade since the season opened during the week instead of on a weekend — the 2007 season began on a Monday night against Mississippi Valley State; every season since has tipped on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday.
