UT men's hoops at VCU on ESPNU Nov. 18th
Part of the ESPN Tip-off Marathon. Game starts at 6:00 p.m. Eastern.
Even better news: apparently (unless I missed something in the schedule, always a possibility) we don't have to worry about one of my biggest complaints regarding college basketball on TV: the 2-hour time block. Doesn't appear to be a game at 4 Eastern on ESPNU. Games inevitably run more than 2 hours, and fans miss part of a game unless ESPN is able to switch it to another channel. So if I'm right about that and we see it from start to finish ...
Here are two links. This was announced almost 2 weeks ago, and I just saw it for the first time. I don't remember seeing it posted here. Sorry if it was and I missed it.

E$PN is dumb for giving only 2 hour blocks for the game. Should be 2:15 at a minimum.

You're absolutely right. And it doesn't seem all that difficult to figure out either. On those rare occasions when a game runs less than 2 hours or 2:15, they have guys in the studio to discuss games and show highlights until the next game begins.
