MILWAUKEE — With the release of the Big East schedule on Wednesday morning, Marquette's 2012 slate is finally complete.

The conference schedule includes five Saturday matchups, and opens up on New Year's Day with a Tuesday home matchup against Connecticut.

The Golden Eagles will play five of their first seven conference games at home at the Bradley Center against Connecticut, Georgetown, Seton Hall, Providence, and USF. However, that means Marquette will finish the conference slate with a road-heavy stretch, playing five of its last eight games on the road.

Marquette kicks off with Marquette Madness on October 12, and the team's season will officially begin in the Carrier Classic in Charleston against Ohio State on November 9.
