Ranking this season’s SEC-Big 12 Challenge slate

Which matchups are you excited to watch on Saturday?

One of College Basketball’s premier events is back for the 2023 season.

The 2023 edition of the SEC-Big 12 Challenge will be the final installment, as the SEC is planning to transition to an all-new ACC-SEC Challenge that is set to begin during the 2023-24 season. The end of the deal is primarily due to ESPN ending the contract, and in small part due to Oklahoma and Texas joining the SEC in 2025.

The final SEC-Big 12 Challenge will feature several intriguing matchups against evenly-matched teams. The series will kick off with Auburn traveling to West Virginia for an 11 a.m. CT tipoff and will end with a marquee matchup between two of College Basketball’s winningest programs, Kansas and Kentucky.
