The University of Minnesota women's basketball team has announced its remaining 2010-11 game times, along with the fact that 15 of the Golden Gophers' games this season will be streamed live on BigTenNetwork.com.

With the exception of the contest against Wisconsin on Jan. 20, which is set to start at 7:30 p.m., all of the Gophers' weekday night home games will tip off at 7:00 p.m. (CT). The Gophers also will play seven regular season home games on Sundays, with all but the team's Best Buy Classic and Subway Classic contests beginning at 2:00 p.m. (CT). The two tournaments will have Sunday schedules consisting of a 1:00 p.m. consolation game, followed by the championship contest at 3:30 p.m.

As previously announced, head coach Pam Borton's Gophers will have a total of five games televised live on Big Ten Network -- at Illinois for the Big Ten-opener on Dec. 30; at Wisconsin on Jan. 9; at home against Wisconsin on Jan. 20; at Iowa on Feb. 10; and at Northwestern on Feb. 20. Minnesota will also have its Dec. 5 game at Baylor televised live on FOX Sports Southwest.
