Syracuse, N.Y. ―The broadcast networks and game times have been set for the 2022 ACC/Big Ten Challenge, including Syracuse’s game at Illinois on Tuesday, Nov. 29.

Sort of.

In announcing the times and TV information for the 14 games in this year’s ACC/Big Ten Challenge, the ACC gave two potential tip-off times and two options among the ESPN family of networks for the Syracuse-Illinois contest.

According to the release, the Syracuse-Illinois game will start at either 7 p.m. or 7:30 p.m. The game will be broadcast on either ESPN or ESPN2.

The Syracuse-Illinois game is in the same block as Maryland’s game at Louisville, which also was listed with the two tip-off times and two networks.

This will be Syracuse’s first game against Illinois in Champaign, Ill. The two teams met in the 1989 NCAA Elite 8. Illinois won that game to advance to the Final Four.
