The new era of Kentucky men’s basketball begins TONIGHT! And we’ve got pregame entertainment to help get you ready for tipoff.

After two exciting, yet non-threatening, exhibition wins, Mark Pope will lead the Wildcats into the 2024-25 season-opener against Wright State at Rupp Arena. The Raiders also welcome a new head coach but expect to roll out a similar offense from last season, which was among the nation’s leaders in three-pointers.

With KSR’s Steven Peake behind the camera, we’ll be livestreaming our walk to Rupp as we talk about the ‘Cats and chat with members of the Big Blue Nation. Myself, Jack Pilgrim, and Brandon Ramsey will make appearances along the way.

Tipoff is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. EST on ESPNU. Come hang out with us and talk some hoops!
