2019-2020 Non-Conference Schedule
-
KU has announced their nonconference schedule for 2019-2020 and it’s a typical KU nonconference schedule.
Oct. 24 vs. Ft. Hays St. (Exhibition)
Oct. 31 vs. Pitt. St. (Exhibition)
Nov. 5 vs. Duke (Champions Classic, New York)
Nov. 8 vs. UNC-Greensboro
Nov. 15 vs. Monmouth
Nov. 19 vs. East Tenn. St.
Nov. 25-27 (Maui Invitational) (Field is BYU, Chaminade, Dayton, Georgia, Kansas, Michigan St., UCLA, and Virginia Tech)
Dec. 7 vs. Colorado
Dec. 10 vs. UW-Milwaukee
Dec. 14 vs. UMKC (Sprint Center)
Dec. 21 @ Villanova (Big 12/Big East Challenge)
Dec. 29 @ Stanford
Jan. 25 Big 12/SEC Challenge (Likely going to be against Kentucky at AFH)
-
Heard we are doing a Colorado home and away deal.
-
Overall the schedule is great, but the home schedule is WEAK.
-
@Woodrow The marquee home game is more than likely going to be the B12/SEC game which is more than likely going to be Kentucky since that’s KU’s typical opponent when they don’t play UK in the Champions Classic.

Great deal, KU fans will pack Boulder lol.
-
Man, good thing we have E. Tennessee, Monmouth, UW-Milwaukee, etc. Would hate to see us waste our time playing a Wichita St. team that would do nothing for us.
The images of a Jayhawk, running around, clucking, is still haunting me from debate’s past. Chick … Chick … CHICKEEEN!
*And yea, I know, we’d have to play at WSU too sometime to make the deal happen.
@Crimsonorblue22 Destined for the Sprint Center …
-
-
@HighEliteMajor don’t forget, Marsha has NEVER asked to play us.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I’d ask them just for the fun of, first, playing them – nice bit of intrastate venom; and second, so we can at least try to make up for the 2015 embarrassment. I think you’d like to see his drunk wife screaming as we waved the wheat.
-
@HighEliteMajor I think they would decline now that they suck but who knows.
-
Gregggggg wants no part of Kansas anytime soon
-
@FarmerJayhawk I’d like to hear the true story why the reeves kid left for ou. Had something to do w/gregggggg’s daughter. He had a huge turnover of ast.s too. Not a good look. He does some bad stuff on tv, wonder what happens behind the scenes?
-
I wish we could play Nevada. Then my wife would see what a real basketball team looks like. Haha I hope she doesn’t see this!

Yep I’ll be there.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich Wish I still had family in CO, would be a much easier trip to make if I could double dip it (and stay somewhere for free lol).
-
@BShark I can arrange a free stay if you want to come up here for a KU game.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich Awesome. Will have to see when that game materializes and if I can get time off.
-
@BShark maybe we should all go
-
You guys can come but you will probably have to sleep on the couch, and then the floor, depending on who gets here first.
-
Wasn’t the last KU game in Boulder only available through buying season tickets to Colorado that season to prevent KU fans from buying up all the tickets? Seems like I remember there not being a very big KU crowd for that game like normal.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 yes, wonder if that’s changed?

This year would be the first year if the home and home and the Colorado game is at AFH. UMKC is the Sprint Center game this year.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 I forgot about the SEC challenge. Hopefully they get Kentucky. It’s still a weak home slate. Even the Sprint Center game sucks. It’s usually a decent mid Major.
I’m not complaining was just making a observation.
-
@Woodrow somebody said UMKC needed funds.
-
Wasnt that also the game one of their guards traveled about 20 feet before putting up a prayer 3 that won?
-
-
Time will tell on the non-con schedule. It will give these guys time to come together as a team…
-
The WSU/KU debate won’t heat up again until WSU has a contending team again. It might kick up again this year if Doke whacks his wrist again…
This is my day to say “again”… meaning… we haven’t heard the last of the debate.
-
I’m still hoping we book Perchtop University from the Canary League off the NW coast of Africa. They’ve got a 7’9" center who likes to grip the rim with his teeth.
-
That schedule is pretty dull except for the epic Villanova game and another beatdown of Duke.
-
@wissox Don’t forget it’s missing likely UK and possibly Mich ST but that depends on how the Maui tournament goes. There will be 1-2 really good games in Maui for sure.
-
@BShark SeC challenge for UK game?
-
@dylans Basically the only time we don’t play UK in the B12/SEC are the years we play UK in the Champions Classic. The last time KU didn’t play UK in a non-Champions Classic year was when we had the home and home with Florida.
-
@wissox Disagree. We could end up playing all 3 of the other teams in the Champions Classic…Michigan St, Tucky, and Dook. That’s going to be pretty damn exciting, in light of the fact that MSU and Dook are ranked preseason 1 and 2.
-
Yeah, I guess I see the 5 or 6 home games against mid majors and I always wish that it wasn’t like that. Sure I’ll be up for those games against the bluebloods like everyone else. I never like seeing us wait until Dec. 21 for a true road game either. I also was curious if we had a home and home with Marquette? We had them in AFH last year.
-
@wissox I wish we had 3 or 4 games against the weakest of the weak so we could get a good look at our newbies…
-
@wissox Sometimes the return game doesn’t happen for 2-3 years.
-
@wissox KU played Marquette in the NIT last year in New York, not part of a home and home.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 You’re right! I was thinking we had them in AFH.
-
We get Tennessee at AFH for the Big 12/SEC Challenge.
-
@FarmerJayhawk where did you see that?
-
@KUSTEVE It was posted on Twitter by Jon Rothstein.
Kentucky is playing Texas Tech
-
Not surprised! Based on previous season.
-
it is not official with the big12/sec challenge
-
@JAYHAWKFAN214 What do you mean? This is pretty silly, imo, if it turns out this way. Tennessee will be only a shell of the team they were last year and we will arguably be much better. Makes zero sense.

Ditto Kentucky playing Tech, who imo is going to fall off precipitously - Beard being a good coach aside.
-
If that ends up being true and KU doesn’t play Kentucky, it would only be the second time KU and Kentucky haven’t played in the B12/SEC Challenge in a year when they didn’t meet in the Champions Classic.

When is it we start the Big East Challenge? - -it should be coming pretty soon shouldn’t it? - to go along with the SEC challenge?
-
@jayballer73 This year and it’s Villanova since that game was already scheduled.
