The SEC/ Big 12 Challenge isn’t going away anytime soon

The SEC/ Big 12 Challenge is here to stay.

Each conference and ESPN announced they had reached a deal to extend what’s become one of college basketball’s signature regular-season events for six more years.

The annual event is in its sixth year this season, and held games on Saturday. TCU took on Florida at Schollmaier Arena in an early game.

“The extension of this preeminent basketball series assures our teams and fans high quality intersectional match-ups for years to come,” Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby said in a statement.
