SEC Basketball Schedule (with dates) coming next week, per report
Early next week, we’ll know Kentucky Basketball’s complete schedule. Jon Rothstein just tweeted that the 2024-25 SEC Basketball schedule — with dates — is expected to be released on Tuesday, August 20, meaning we are just a handful of days away from knowing exactly when John Calipari’s Arkansas Razorbacks will come to Rupp Arena to face Mark Pope’s Wildcats.
We already know the teams Kentucky will face in conference play. Back in May, the SEC revealed each team’s opponents. Kentucky will play all 15 teams in the conference, and Alabama, Tennessee, and Vanderbilt twice. Nine of those 18 games will take place at Rupp Arena and another nine on the road.
