Chatter about UConn playing Michigan State as part of a doubleheader in Eugene, Oregon early next season has been around for a while. Well, now it is official.
The game will be part of a doubleheader on Nov. 25 at the University of Oregon's Knight Arena as part of the Phil Knight Invitational in honor of the Nike founder's 80th birthday.
UConn will face Michigan State and Oklahoma will play against host Oregon.
“I am already looking forward to competing in the Phil Knight Invitational out in Oregon next November," UConn coach Geno Auriemma said in a statement.
