This news immediately sparked a question for BBN: Does this mean we play Kansas twice in one season? Kentucky is already locked into the Champions Classic with Kansas, Duke, and Michigan State. In fact, Kentucky is scheduled to play Kansas in the Champions Classic in November 2026. In 2028-29, UK plays Kansas in December (CBS), which means they will likely rotate to play Duke or Michigan State in the Champions Classic that year.
