Kansas and Kentucky are taking a break from their busy conference schedules for a historic clash. It's an understatement to say Jayhawk fans are excited to host the Wildcats at Allen Fieldhouse on Saturday.

Given the histories of the two programs and with College Gameday on hand, the pre-dawn wake-up call will be worth it.

The Jayhawks and Wildcats tip off at 7 p.m. ET on Saturday.
