The Kentucky Wildcats suffered their first loss of the season on the road against the Clemson Tigers. They now have to head to Seattle to take on the seventh-ranked Gonzaga Bulldogs.
This game will take place at what is officially listed as a neutral site at Amazon, Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle, WA. However, it will feel like a road game, as Spokane, WA, is far closer to Seattle than Lexington, KY. Many Gonzaga alumni and fans live and work in or around the Seattle area. While Big Blue Nation travels well, it will still be a heavily Gonzaga-favored crowd.
The match is titled "Battle in Seattle," and it allows a strong basketball market that is suffering without NBA basketball to see high-level basketball. The game does not seem to be struggling for attendance, as reports are in that most resale tickets are north of $100, some as much as $400.

How can I stream the game?
If you would rather watch it online or on a streaming device, you can either find it on the ESPN app or "Watch ESPN" on ESPN.com. Alternatively, you can simply use this link to watch the game. This will allow you to stream the game from your computer or any other browser. You can also download the ESPN app on your tablet or phone to watch from there (with an account and a subscription). Or any of the subscription services that have ESPN channels. You can also use your cable TV package to sign in.
If you don't have any of those options, it would be strongly encouraged to get a subscription to ESPN at some point because ESPN owns the SEC Network, and almost all of the regular-season games for Kentucky basketball will be on some sort of ESPN or affiliate channel.
