UConn men’s basketball to play West Virginia in 2021 Big East-Big 12 Battle

UConn men’s basketball will be renewing one of its old Big East rivalries when it takes on the West Virginia Mountaineers in the Big East-Big 12 Battle.

The Huskies will travel to Morgantown, West Virginia on Dec. 8 for the matchup. Though the time and broadcast information is still TBA, ESPN owns the Big 12’s television rights which means the game will likely be on the ESPN family of networks.

The two schools are plenty familiar with each other from battling in the old Big East where West Virginia was a full-time member from 1995 until 2012, when it departed for the Big 12.
