The Utah men’s basketball team has agreed to a deal for a two-game series with the Kentucky Wildcats for the next two seasons. The agreement, which remains in the works and is not finalized yet, was first reported by ESPN 700.
The agreement, per the report, has Utah traveling to Lexington, Ken., this upcoming season to play the Wildcats at Rupp Arena, with the second part of the deal featuring the Runnin’ Utes and Wildcats facing off at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas the following year.
Utah’s non-conference schedule in 2018-19 appears to be its stiffest to date under coach Larry Krystkowiak.
