In a repeat of the 2021 national championship game, the teams will play a basketball game in December.
The teams will play at the Pentagon.
Scott Drew said he was excited for the early-season game against one of the sport's premier teams. This will be a terrific event for college basketball in one of the game's most unique venues.
Few expressed his admiration for Drew and his program, and noted that a game like this showcases college basketball.
Over the past three seasons, the Bears and the Bulldogs have been two of the most successful teams in college basketball, with the Bears going 81-13 and the Dogs going 90-7. Both teams have been 1-seeds in the past.
The teams are both ranked in the top 10 of the latest Way-Too-Early Top 25.
The two teams haven't played a regular-season game in four years. In the national championship game of the 2021 season, the Bears won 86-70, while in the second round of the NCAA tournament, the Zags won 83-70.
They were supposed to play a game in December 2020, but it was canceled because of coronaviruses.
