FAYETTEVILLE — Game times and TV designations were announced Wednesday for most of the 2017-18 Southeastern Conference basketball schedule.
Arkansas will play at least one SEC game on ESPN, as many as five games on ESPN2 and twice on ESPNU. All other conference games will be played on SEC Network.
The Razorbacks' game against Kentucky on Feb. 20 will be televised by ESPN, and the network also is considering a Feb. 17 home game against Texas A&M and the regular-season finale at Missouri.
The ESPN and ESPN2 exposure is as Arkansas received the last two seasons combined, when all but three of its conference games each year were shown on SEC Network.
One network notably absent from the Razorbacks' schedule is CBS, which will not show an Arkansas regular-season game for the third consecutive season.
The only conference game time not yet set is the SEC opener against Tennessee on Dec. 30. The SEC will wait until December to set a start time in an attempt not to interfere with a bowl game for the Razorbacks or Volunteers.
Game times and TV designations for some of Arkansas' 13 nonconference games are pending, although the Razorbacks' games at the Phil Knight Invitational in November and home game against Oklahoma State in January will be televised by an ESPN affiliate.
