The Penn State men's basketball team will host Miami (FL) in the 2021 Big Ten/ACC Men's Basketball Challenge inside the Bryce Jordan Center on Wednesday, Dec. 1, as matchups for the 23rd-annual challenge were announced Monday afternoon.
Tip times and network designations will be announced at a later date. ESPN, ESPN2 and ESPNU will combine to televise all 14 games of the event, with all contests also available to stream via the ESPN App.
Penn State is 3-0 all-time against Miami with the last meeting coming in the first round of the 1995 NIT. Trailing 48-28 with 14:07 left, Penn State outscored the Hurricanes 34-8 the rest of the way to capture the first-round victory that eventually propelled PSU into the NIT Semifinals. The Nittany Lions are 2-0 against the Hurricanes when playing in Happy Valley. Penn State and Miami have never met in the Big Ten/ACC Challenge.
Penn State is 11-9 all-time in B1G/ACC Men's Basketball Challenge matchups. The Nittany Lions have won three-straight B1G/ACC Challenge games and six of their last seven. Penn State defeated 15th-ranked Virginia Tech 77-55 on the road in last season's matchup on Dec. 8, 2020. The Big Ten has won the challenge in each of the last two seasons (2020, 2019) after the two conferences split 7-7 in 2018.

Season ticket renewals are now underway for the 2021-22 men's basketball season, with more information available HERE.  The student season ticket sale began on Tuesday, Sept. 7. Student season ticket pricing is staying at $35 this year and student season ticket packages include all 17 home games. More information on student season tickets can be found HERE. Single-game tickets will go on sale at the end of October with a Nittany Lion Club pre-sale, group sales and a general public sale. Pricing will be announced closer to the single-game sales.
