Arizona center Dusan Ristic, left, grabs a rebound from Michigan State forward Kenny Goins, right, in the Armed Forces Classic on Nov. 11, 2016, in Honolulu. The Wildcats and Spartans have not played since then but will do so on Thanksgiving.

The Arizona-Michigan State matchup has been set for 1:30 p.m. Pacific Time on Thanksgiving Day at Acrisure Arena in Thousand Palms, California.

Assuming Daylight Savings Time is not made permanent by then, the game will be starting at 2:30 p.m. in Arizona. It will be televised on Fox after its NFL coverage of Green Bay and Detroit.

Tickets are scheduled to go on sale Wednesday at 10 a.m. via acrisurearena.com and ticketmaster.com, as well as at the UA, MSU and Acrisure box offices.

Called the "Acrisure Classic," the Arizona-MSU game will be technically part of a four-team "multi-team event," in which Arizona is also scheduled to host a low-major opponent to be named later on Nov. 19.
