The game between the Wildcats and Mavericks, which is Greek Night presented by Arrow Ford, will be the sole linear TV broadcast of a regular season Western Athletic Conference men's basketball game this season. The Feb. 12 matchup will be the season's second between the two teams. UTA will host ACU in Arlington on Saturday, Jan. 10. The third meeting is the regular season finale on Saturday, March 7 in Abilene.
ACU has won four of its six games against the Mavericks dating back to November 2021 when Immanuel Allen hit a buzzer-beating three-pointer to send the game to overtime where the Wildcats won 80-71 in Arlington. It was Brette Tanner's first win as ACU's head coach.
