Kentucky basketball game in London rescheduled to 2022
No game vs Kentucky next season. London was pushed to 2022 which caused the game in Lexington scheduled for then to be moved back another year.
Sources: Kentucky and Michigan will not play a game next season as expected.

Thanks for the update. We have been waiting to hear about this. Doesn't surprise me, but sad, because it was going to be my girls' first live Michigan sports event. :(
Really couldn’t careless about these gimmick games internationally. The professional leagues can do whatever they want but I see little value to these games for college athletes. It’s one thing to play a tournament there but a one off is really pointless. Jet lag, interrupting a student athlete schedule, playing the game at an odd time or having to watch it live at an odd time, not to mention an expense for both athletic departments and one less game we can attend in person. Play a home and home and then pick a neutral college campus for the 3rd game. That way I can go to the game and experience a college campus I may not have been to.
Good points and I agree. No point in exporting college sports. The ND football game played in Ireland was OK for should be a one time only.
