Kentucky vs. Abilene Christian: Preview, viewing info & keys to the game

It is finally here!

The Kentucky Wildcats will start tournament play on Thursday against the Abilene Christian Wildcats in their pursuit of the ninth national championship in school history. The game will take place at the VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville, FL, and will tip-off at 7:10 pm on CBS.

Although some are disappointed that Kentucky did not end up with a 1 seed or with the fact that they are not playing in Louisville, the Wildcats’ draw really isn’t bad. Without looking ahead too far, though, let’s spend some time on the opening opponent: Abilene Christian University (ACU).
