Kentucky Basketball's SEC dates set; Schedule now final
Get out your planners or Google Calendars, Big Blue Nation, because the Kentucky Basketball 2023-24 schedule is finally complete. The SEC just confirmed the dates for the conference slate (we already knew the opponents), giving us our first look at the entire schedule — although exhibition games, TV info, and tip times are still to be announced.
The Cats begin SEC play at Florida on Saturday, January 6, and return home to host Missouri the following Tuesday, January 9. Up next is a challenging trip to College Station to play Texas A&M on Saturday, January 13. Other big road games include at Arkansas on Saturday, January 27, at Auburn on Saturday, February 17, and at Tennessee on Saturday, March 9, the final game of the regular season.
Kentucky’s marquee SEC home games fall on Saturdays too. On February 3, Tennessee comes to town, one week before the game vs. Gonzaga in Rupp. The Cats have a tough stretch in late February, hosting Alabama on Feb. 24 before playing at Mississippi State on Feb. 27 and returning home to host Arkansas on March 2.
