The Florida basketball team will kick off the 2019 SEC/Big 12 Challenge for the 2019 season, according to the Southeastern Conference.
On Monday, the conference announced the schedule for the annual event.
The Gators will travel to Texas to face Texas Christian for a 12 p.m. tip-off on Jan. 26.
“The Big 12/SEC Challenge is a unique opportunity to showcase our basketball programs. Playing the event on a single-date in January puts our programs in the college basketball spotlight,” SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey said back in May when the pairings were announced.
