I gotta go to work Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Heard that Harvard may be coming to Rupp next season. What does the rest of the non-conference look like to this point. Harvard vs Kansas (Champions Classic) Louisville vs UCLA (CBS Classic) @ North Carolina Big 12/SEC Challenge ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NKYknowitall Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Coming back to Chapel Hill and starting home and home again. Thank goodness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJAlltheWay24 Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 They won't play Kansas in the SEC/Big 12 challenge, so who do they get? I believe they have to be the away team. I say the Cats play in Morgantown. Texas would be the #2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJAlltheWay24 Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Didn't they play Baylor one year in the SEC/Big12? I think you are right. I guess they are an option too. I'd think we'd have to get one of those three on the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gotta go to work Posted April 7, 2017 Author Share Posted April 7, 2017 They've played Baylor twice, Kansas twice, and Texas once as part of the Big12/SEC I believe. West Virginia would be best choice next year IMO and a fresh opponent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gchs_uk9 Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Didn't they play Baylor one year in the SEC/Big12? I think that was before the SEC/Big 12 event entailed the entire conference. Only a couple of teams per conference participated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gchs_uk9 Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 West Virginia would be best choice next year IMO and a fresh opponent. I'm sure they'll look at who is ranked (or expected to be ranked) where before scheduling teams, but this is most likely. Kentucky can't play Kansas in this event next year because they are playing in the Champions Classic, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gchs_uk9 Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Coming back to Chapel Hill and starting home and home again. Thank goodness I'm guessing it is only a two-year home-and-home. The third year will pit Kentucky and Carolina in the CBS Sports Classic again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRCW Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Stupid stupid stupid I imagine they'll probably renew it after the 3rd year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stupid stupid stupid I imagine they'll probably renew it after the 3rd year. They took a year off because both Cal & Roy wanted it that way. I know for Cal it was because he didn't want to play both UL and UNC on the road in the same year. I look for them to renew it, but I believe I read where they both wanted a two year home-and-home with the third year being at a neutral site. My guess is when they renew the CBS Sports Classic, they'll renew another two year home-and-home. Cal has taken the same approach with both UCLA & Kansas.

Not wanting those road games against UL and Carolina is weak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gchs_uk9 Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Not wanting those road games against UL and Carolina is weak He wants one at home and one on the road. That's as much for the season ticket holders as anyone - they want one of those two in Rupp every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
