Times announced for 2017 SEC/Big 12 Challenge

The times and networks for the 2017 SEC/Big 12 basketball non-conference challenge were announced on Monday.

The event will take place on January 28, which serves as a bye to the SEC and Big 12 conference slates.

For Georgia, they will face the Texas Longhorns at Stegeman Coliseum in Athens. The game will take place at 4 p.m. ET and will be broadcasted on ESPN.

Last season, Georgia played Baylor on the road in their first-ever SEC/Big 12 Challenge appearance. Unfortunately for the Bulldogs, they fell to the Bears 83-73. But now they get the chance to play on their home court and try to earn their first challenge victory.

The SEC/Big 12 Challenge features 10 SEC teams clashing against 10 teams from the Big 12. Here’s a look at the full schedule:
