Miami to Host Arkansas in 2024 SEC/ACC Challenge

CORAL GABLES, Fla. – The University of Miami men’s basketball team will host the Arkansas Razorbacks on Tues., Dec. 3 in the second year of the SEC/ACC Challenge, as announced jointly by the league offices Wednesday.

In 2023, the Atlantic Coast Conference and the Southeastern Conference each won seven games to split the first iteration of the challenge. The Hurricanes are 0-1 in the challenge after facing a 95-73 setback at No. 12 Kentucky last season.

Head coaches Jim Larrañaga and John Calipari will meet for the second straight season in the challenge as Calipari was named the head coach at Arkansas in April. Between, Calipari and Larrañaga have 1,553 career wins and currently rank first and sixth, respectively, in total wins among active Division I head coaches.

This year’s contest will be just the second ever game between Miami and Arkansas as the programs’ only other meeting came on March 17, 2000 in the NCAA Tournament. The Hurricanes came away with a 75-71 victory in Nashville, Tenn.

Tipoff time and television designation will be announced at a later date.
