Big East/SEC challenge

UC announced today that it will play Mississippi State next year in the Big East/SEC Challenge at U.S. Bank Arena on Dec. 18. The other game at U.S. Bank will feature the return of former UC interim head coach Andy Kennedy, whose Ole Miss team will play Louisville. On Dec. 16 in Nashville, Vanderbilt will play South Florida and Marquette will play Tennessee. The teams are chosen by ESPN in consultation with the leagues based on geography and competitive criteria.

are these 2 games paid attendance for the price of one ticket?
Or are they two seperate events with two tickets?

This will be cool - will be great to see AK in town - he should have a decent crowd on hand to root on his gang (esp. since they are playing Louisville). It's a shame UC doesnt play AK and his team.

to max the money, expect two seperate events. One ticket per event.

Why is it that they took all of the tanked teams from the SEC and all of the non-ranked teams from the BE. Are they trying to provide the SEC with 4 wins?

Did you mean to say tanked or ranked?

Why not call it the SEC/ex-CUSA challenge?

Only "tanked" if WVU was involved

We wouldn't be in this mess if NanZi had just 'hired Andy'

AK and Huggins will have their teams in the NCAA tourney this year, while the Bearcats will be lucky to make the NIT.
