This year’s Blue-White Game is going to look a little bit different than in years past. The event is headed to Memorial Coliseum.
UK announced on Friday morning that the preseason intrasquad scrimmages for Kentucky men’s and women’s basketball will take place inside the newly renovated Memorial on Friday, Oct. 18. Additionally, all proceeds from the event will benefit Club Blue, one of the school’s primary NIL partners.
This scrimmage is being labeled as a “Preseason Event”, with UK’s social media post indicating that there will be more going on than just the scrimmages. Regardless, this will be our first true look at 5-on-5 action for both Mark Pope and Kenny Brooks‘ squads as they enter year one as head coaches of their respective teams.
Big Blue Madness is scheduled for the week prior on Friday, October 11 inside Rupp Arena.
