Wouldn't surprise me if we get Syracuse. They've been pretty terrible setting up the matchups to this point.

I'm a fan of this. There's much more to gain for us than there is for Pitt. Plus, we'll get some national exposure on ESPN as well.

If Tennessee and Kentucky traded opponents, the Challenge would be set up about as well as it possibly could be.

I completely agree.

That UK-St Johns matchup is pathetic. The ESPN-types probably love it. And I don't understand why they would want us in a rematch? Give us something different.

I don't care about different, I want the best possible series. There are only two games of the twelve that I think aren't fairly evenly matched. Flip the opponents in those two and you have twelve dogfights.

I agree that the UK/St. Johns game isn't quite the best of matchups; BUT, St. Johns has the number three class in the country coming in. There will be some talent on that team. Just freshman heavy. Anyways, getting to Tennessee- I thought that in these challenges you got a different opponent every season?

I want a good series too... but if they're going to pit us against one of the better teams in the big east, I'd like someone else. Cincy or WVa

Over/under number of times Dike Vitale says "diaper dandy" while calling this game?

The best game of the SEC/Big East Challenge will be Louisville/Vandy. They should be two top 10 teams going into this matchup..

UT-Pitt isn't a bad matchup and neither is UK-St. Johns. I don't really understand the frustration some of you are having with these two matchups. St. Johns had a good team last year. UT won't get hammered by Pitt either.

Relax people, this really shouldn't be a concern

The person responsible for scheduling Ole Miss @ DePaul needs to have their head examined.
When I went to watch 'Nova @ DePaul in Feb the crowd was small and close to half were 'Nova fans.
There will be nobody at the Ole Miss game.

As the series is set up now, DePaul had to have a home game. Ole Miss makes as much sense as any. Nobody, outside of Kentucky, is going to draw there.
