It won’t come as much of a shock, but Kentucky men’s basketball is getting star treatment for the inaugural ACC/SEC Challenge.
On Monday, ESPN announced the TV assignments for all 28 of the men’s and women’s ACC/SEC Challenge matchups, which will run from Tuesday, Nov. 28 through Thursday, Nov. 30. Kentucky is set to take on Miami (FL) in Rupp Arena on Tuesday, Nov. 28 at 7:30 p.m. EST. The news? It will be one of two marquee games broadcast on ESPN that day.
This matchup will mark just the fourth time in history that Kentucky and Miami (FL) will play each other, and the first instance of the John Calipari era.
