The Kentucky Wildcats have added a new opponent to the non-conference slate.
On Thursday, the school announced a three-year series with the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, which will begin next season in Rupp Arena. The series will also include a neutral-site event in 2021 (located to be determined later) and a road game in South Bend, Indiana, in 2022.
“If our previous games are any indication, this is going to be a great series,” UK head coach John Calipari said in a press release. “I can remember playing Notre Dame in 2010 in Freedom Hall and Ben Hansbrough going crazy in the first half and Terrence Jones willing us to victory in the second half. We went to South Bend a couple years later and that place was nuts. The football team was there and they thumped us. And then the game in 2015 in the Elite Eight was one of the best all-around games I’ve been a part of. Elite play from both teams.
