Duke gets two home games in a row? How is that fair?
Duke getting a home game 2 years in a row is a JOKE.
Like...reporters should demand answers for this. It's a F*CKING JOKE.

Great news! We can close the all-time head-to-head gap a bit more. Right now we trail by 7.
This will make it 6.

NC State at Auburn is intriguing
LSU at BC...is not

Is there an SEC school getting 2 straight home games too? As it stands its 8 SEC and 8 ACC home games.
Duke at Rupp and UK at Cameron would’ve been massive. I can’t believe that did not happen. What a blown opportunity for CBB.

It's simply not acceptable that Duke and Kentucky only play each other in the regular season twice a decade. These are the two best programs without question and the powers that be treat them like they're an old divorced couple that hates each other.
UF vs Duke
UNC vs UK
Louisville vs Arkansas
Games I’ll definitely be watching.

Wish Arkansas was playing at Louisville just for the Cal/Payne reception.
Not making a big deal out of a selective "modern era" angle on the head-to-head: But I will note that in this century, since 2000, Kentucky leads the series 12-9, and that's despite the horrific screw job by the Rooferee, and the BCG mini-era...
Some classic moments in the series this past quarter century: Beating UNC-CHEATS twice in the Dean Dome by 17 points each time in 2000 and 2002, a crazy shot by Gerald Fitch to seal a win at Rupp, Tayshaun's "he's not a Prince, he's a King" 3-pointer explosion, John Wall's "rack attacks" to let the country know UK hoops was back, DeAndre Liggins' 3 to send the Cats to the Final Four, AD's legendary block of Henson, Malik Monk's 47 point masterpiece, the 28-point blow-out in Oscar's first year just to name a few...

Time for UNC to come take their medicine at Rupp!

UNC is fine, wanted to play Duke though because it rarely happens. I guarnetee you ESPN sees Florida going to Duke as some kind of reward for Florida, since they won the title.
Now all that’s left for the schedule is the 2 cupcake games before Louisville, and the SEC schedule. Correction probably 3 cupcake games
It’s espn we’re talking about
Defending national champs have to go to Cameron. LMFAO. What a joke! Heaven forbid Duke has tough road game until the Final Four.
This has to be one of the best schedules we've had going back to when Rupp would play anybody anywhere. Awesome
Im looking forward to what should be an easy win against UNC. As opposed to a little more difficult Duke matchup. Our schedule from start to finish is tough enough.. so having a notable-but-crappy opponent (who is also a rival) is perfect to me. This is better than playing Clemson or something.
Didn't Florida play at UNC last year, that matchup makes sense but it should be @ Florida.
The year UK is down or supposed to be down and Duke has another NBA lineup is when UK will play at Cameron. The year UK is stacked, it will never get DUKE here. Might as well get used to it. It is ESPN driven. No one wants to see DUKE at UK except UK fans. Heck UK fans want to see both ways.
You guys remember the BS foul on Prince back when Kentucky was beating Duke late in the early 2000s that sent Jay Williams to the line to tie the game and send it to overtime?
I effing hate Duke. I hope Scheyer stays for years to come, given that he's a mediocre coach.

Should never play UNChapelHill EVER again in any sport, men’s or women’s. They are the biggest cheaters in the history of the NCAA. They skated and that was the day the NCAA died…they could no longer control college sports and NIL and the transfer portal were born. It won’t be long and college sports will only be a memory. Thank you Dean E. Smith.
FLA played vs Virginia on December 4th at Florida. ACC challenge. UNC was not the ACC challenge game. Dec 3rd and 4th.
Technically it was a "neutral" site game we played against UNC in Charlotte. Jumpman Invitational.
Kind of odd that you don’t see much posted about this game over on their board. Another chance to close the gap tighter.
PREDICTIONS — winner in bold
UF @ Duke
UNC @ UK
UVA @ Texas
NC St @ Auburn
Clemson @ Bama
LVille @ Ark
OU @ Wake
SMU @ Vandy
A&M @ Pitt
Miss St @ GT
Miami @ Ole Miss
LSU @ BC

I gave ACC a couple toss ups to make it slightly less lopsided. E.g. I don’t know the first thing about BC or LSU next year so I give BC the win…
Tally:
SEC 12
ACC 4
Congrats to ACC, big improvement from last year!
