BATON ROUGE – The Southeastern Conference unveiled its 126-game men’s basketball schedule for the 2017-18 season on Thursday and the LSU Tigers will host Will Wade‘s first SEC game against the University of Kentucky.
That game is set for Wednesday, Jan. 3 and will mark 18-straight playing dates against league opposition through the end of the season on March 3 when LSU hosts Mississippi State.
Times and TV accommodations for each of the games will be announced by the league and the television partners in the days ahead.
Each SEC team plays the other 13 teams at least one time during league play. They will then play their three permanent opponents a second time (LSU’s permanent opponents are Texas A&M, Alabama and Arkansas) and the remaining two games will be scheduled on a rotating basis (Georgia and Vanderbilt in 2018).
After the Kentucky game on Jan. 3, the Tigers will host league games in January at Saturday, Jan. 13, against Alabama, Tuesday, Jan. 16, versus Georgia and Tuesday, Jan. 23, against Texas A&M.
February home contests find the Pete Maravich Assembly Center and the Tigers hosting Arkansas on Feb. 3, Ole Miss on Feb. 10, Missouri on Feb. 17 and Vanderbilt on Feb. 20.
