LEXINGTON - The 2021-22 college basketball schedule should look something closer to normal after a year drastically altered due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
For Kentucky, that means fans back at full capacity in Rupp Arena, a full slate of non-conference games and the return of preseason exhibitions and Big Blue Madness.
Big Blue Nation will also hope it means the return to national relevance to the program after an embarrassing 9-16 record last season.
The 2021-22 schedule was finalized on Sept. 9 with the release of dates for Southeastern Conference games. Television information and start times will be announced at a later date.
