ESPN College GameDay is returning to Rupp Arena this season for the first time since its record-setting stop in 2010. The GameDay crew will set up shop in Lexington on Feb. 23 for Missouri's first visit to Rupp Arena as a Southeastern Conference member. Although Kentucky has been featured on GameDay in each of the last two seasons, it will mark the first time Rece Davis and Co. have visited Rupp Arena since Feb. 13, 2010, when a record crowd of 22,144 fans showed up for the show. Later that night, UK surged past Tennessee, 73-62. The show will air live from Rupp Arena at 10 a.m. on ESPNU before switching over to ESPN at 11 a.m. GameDay will also have a pregame show at 8 p.m. on ESPN, followed by the UK-Missouri game at 9 p.m.
