The most expensive home game left on Kentucky's schedule is against Florida on March 7th. Florida is one of the few teams in the country that has something in common with Kentucky basketball, back-to-back national titles. Florida did it in 2006 and 2007 and Kentucky accomplished this back in the 40's. Florida came into this season with some high expectations and a high preseason ranking. However, Florida has struggled so far. However, Kentucky fans should expect Billy Donovan to have his team ready to go to battle as Florida is usually in top form towards the end of the season. Tickets for this game are currently going for $558.23 on the secondary ticket market and the get-in price is $136. If Kentucky continues their perfect season, expect ticket prices to skyrocket as this is the last regular season game of the year for the Wildcats.
The next big ticket on the Kentucky basketball home schedule is a Valentine's Day matchup between the Wildcats and the South Carolina Gamecocks. With a fiery Frank Martin on the opponent's bench, it should equate to a heated battled on the court. South Carolina knocked off a top-10 Iowa State team earlier in the year and despite their 10-5 record, only one of their losses was by more than five points. Fans can expect to pay $410.67 on the secondary ticket market while the get-in price is $129.
A week later, Auburn comes to town for a Saturday night matchup. The Tigers after having an average season under new head coach, Bruce Pearl. Wildcats are certainly familiar with Pearl, who formerly coached at Tennessee. Tickets for this matchup are currently going for $389.16 on the secondary ticket market while the get-in price is $111.
