Do you want to see Kentucky take on Ohio State in the CBS Sports Classic in New York City? Set an alarm because tickets go on sale tomorrow, Thursday, August 22 at noon ET.

This year’s event takes place on Saturday, December 21 at Madison Square Garden. UCLA faces North Carolina in the first game of the doubleheader at 3 p.m. ET. Kentucky vs. Ohio State will take the floor thirty minutes after the conclusion of that game, so around 5:30 p.m. If you can’t be there in person, you can watch on CBS or stream on Paramount+.

Ohio State has a 2-0 edge over Kentucky in the CBS Sports Classic, winning the 2015 game in the Barclays Center (74-67) and the 2019 game in Las Vegas (71-65). The last time the event was in Madison Square Garden was 2022, when Kentucky lost to UCLA 63-53. The Cats are an even 5-5 in the CBS Sports Classic overall.

Of course, from the head coach to the roster, this year’s Kentucky team is completely different than the one that beat North Carolina in last year’s CBS Sports Classic in Atlanta; however, there will be a familiar face on the Buckeyes’ sideline. Aaron Bradshaw transferred to Ohio State in April after John Calipari left for Arkansas. Bradshaw averaged 4.9 points and 3.3 rebounds in his lone season at Kentucky. Now, he’s primed for a new start in Columbus, with one game against his former team.

Siri, if you’re listening, tickets for the CBS Sports Classic go on sale Thursday at noon ET on Ticketmaster.com and MSG.com . If you register on the CBS Sports Classic website , you’ll be eligible for the presale, which just started.
