The matchups for the 2K Classic were announced on Wednesday, with Marquette drawing Michigan while SMU and Pittsburgh face off in the other semifinal at Madison Square Garden on November 17. The winners of those matchups will play for the tournament title on Nov. 18 and the losers will square off in a consolation game the same day.

SMU vs. Pitt will open the championship round of the tournament, with their game scheduled for 6 p.m. Marquette and Michigan will play afterward, with the tip-off coming at approximately 8:30 p.m. Both games will be on ESPN2.

The matchup between the Golden Eagles and Wolverines will be the 20th all-time. Michigan owns a 13-6 advantage, but Marquette won the most recent game between the two, winning 79-65 at the Old Spice Classic on Nov. 27, 2009.

Wednesday's 2K Classic bracket release also included the regional round matchups for the tournament. Marquette will host Howard on Nov. 14 and IUPUI on Nov. 22. The regional games do not impact which teams play in the championship round in New York.

Below are the non-conference games Marquette has announced thus far. The annual matchup with Wisconsin — expected to take place Dec. 10 at the BMO Harris Bradley Center — is yet to be officially announced. The program will continue unveiling its 2016-'17 non-conference schedule on Thursday via Twitter.
