Just three games into the new season, the Kentucky Wildcats will face arguably their toughest regular-season test in the Champions Classic, where they’ll clash with the Kansas Jayhawks.
These are the top-two winningest programs in college basketball, as Kentucky ranks first at 2,239 wins, while Kansas is not far behind at second with 2,218 victories. These two programs have also combined for 31 NCAA Final Fours with Kentucky at 17 and Kansas at 14.
Oh, did we mention they’ve won 11 national championships? While the season is still young, just like the freshman-heavy Wildcats, both of these teams have the talent to be title contenders by the time March rolls around.
While Kentucky does have a 2-0 record vs. Kansas in the Champions Classic, the Jayhawks have won the last two regular-season meetings, having beaten the Cats Kentucky in back-to-back seasons in the Big 12/SEC Challenge.
