The following games have been set, and they all of will be home games in Rupp Arena:

• Nov. 11 vs. Stephen F. Austin -€” 7 p.m. on SEC Network

It's good to see UK once again playing an afternoon game on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, which gives players and coaches more time to get back to their families for the holidays.

With the completion of the schedule, Kentucky will be on national television (CBS, ESPN, ESPN2, SEC Network) in all 31 regular-season games. Even UK's exhibition games, Big Blue Madness and the Blue-White Scrimmage will also be on national television.
