Kentucky Wildcats: Grambling State is the next game

The next future game on the Kentucky Wildcats men’s basketball schedule is against Grambling State on Monday, November 16, 2026. The matchup is listed at Rupp Arena at Central Bank Center in Lexington, with a published time of 7 p.m. The available source does not identify the time zone or currently list a broadcast option for this game.

Kentucky–Northern Arizona should no longer be presented as the next matchup: it was scheduled for November 13 at 7 p.m. ET, and that time had already passed when this edition was prepared. Because the available sources do not provide a final score, this article does not assign a result to the game.

Kentucky’s next two games

The official men’s basketball schedule lists these future matchups:

| Date | Opponent | Venue | Published time |

|---|---|---|---|

| Mon., November 16 | Grambling State | Rupp Arena at Central Bank Center, Lexington, Kentucky | 7 p.m.; time zone not identified |

| Fri., November 20 | Indiana | Lucas Oil Stadium, Indianapolis | 8 p.m.; time zone not identified |

Grambling State is listed as a home game. The Indiana matchup appears with “vs.” on the schedule and will take place at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. Times and operational details may change, so check the official page again before watching or making travel plans.

Broadcast information is not yet confirmed

The available schedule text does not associate the Grambling State or Indiana games with a television network, streaming platform, radio outlet or live-statistics link. It is therefore not possible to promise where either game can be watched.

The SEC Network Plus coverage and the “Watch,” “Listen” and “Live Stats” options appeared specifically for Northern Arizona in Kentucky’s game preview. Those details should not be carried over to later matchups.

Where to check for an official update

The program’s men’s basketball page gathers Kentucky news and directs readers to institutional coverage. The schedule remains the most direct reference for any added viewing links, time changes or updates to a game’s status.

Because the future times appear without a time-zone label in the available text, they are reproduced exactly as published rather than converted.

What came earlier in the season

Before the Northern Arizona date, Kentucky had two regular-season wins and one loss. The Wildcats defeated Manhattan 85–57 and James Madison 89–80, then lost 89–69 to Kansas at the Champions Classic in Chicago.

Kentucky’s preview recorded 15 Wildcats turnovers in the Kansas loss, from which the opponent scored 22 points. Those figures provide context for the opening stretch but do not establish the later result against Northern Arizona.

Why Northern Arizona is not in the future schedule

The Northern Arizona game was listed for Friday, November 13, at Rupp Arena, with a 7 p.m. ET start. Although the available schedule material still displayed it without a result, the scheduled start time had passed. Presenting it as an upcoming event would be inaccurate.

Northern Arizona’s schedule did not provide useful game details in the extracted text. No score or further information has therefore been inferred from that page.

“UK” means University of Kentucky

In this context, “UK” identifies the University of Kentucky and its men’s basketball program, the Kentucky Wildcats. The schedule above does not concern another university, a women’s team, a national team or a club with similar initials.
