I get why John Calipari prefers to schedule neutral site games over home-and-homes. There’s more money to be made at neutral sites and the environment mimics what players will experience in the NCAA Tournament. That logic checks out.
Kentucky’s schedule features at least two of those each year, opening the season with the Champions Classic and celebrating Christmas with the CBS Sports Classic. The destinations have rotated between New York City, Chicago, Las Vegas, New Orleans, Atlanta and Indianapolis. Chicago and Atlanta (vs. Georgia Tech on the day after Thanksgiving) are already on the schedule in 2020-21 and New York will be in the rotation the following year.
