The Southeastern Conference Television Series enters its 12th year and the Kentucky Wildcats will keep intact their record of having appeared at least three times each year, making it the only SEC team to claim that magnetic attraction for its brand of basketball.
In fact, two of their games will be featured nationally and both will be in Lexington-Jan. 17 against Vanderbilt, and Mar. 6 against Alabama. The other SEC series game will be Feb. 7 at Tennessee.
Three teams-Alabama, Auburn and Tennessee are scheduled three times also, while Georgia and Vanderbilt will appear twice. Florida, LSU, Ole Miss and Mississippi State will appear only once.
The 10-week series over a regional network again will be produced by TVS Television of New York. AU games will be played on Saturday afternoons. Auburn opens the series at Louisiana State Jan. 3.
Kentucky has won 26- and lost only 14, for a 65 per cent win average during the eleven year series. The year-by-year breakdown: Won one of three games in '64-65, three of four in '65-66, two of four in both '66-67 and '67-68, three of five in '68-69, all four in '69-70, three of four in '70-71, two of three in both '71-72 and '72-73, one of three in '73-74, and all three in '74-75.
