Absolutely love it. Woulda been perfect if they gave Creighton Baylor. Shaka is gonna whoop his old crew.

 

[Drumguy]

Like those top 4 games!

Kansas has won 87% of their nearly 900 games at Allen Fieldhouse over the years, so this is not going to be easy. Should be fun, though!

 

[Waquoit]

How could it not be UConn-Kansas? Battle of the Blue Bloods!

 

[HuskyHawk]

Oh yeah. Nobody is happier about this than me. Except my friend Jeff who has bitched at me about not coming to KC to visit. I am definitely up for this. Now I check the dates and inevitably it will be the week I'm in Ireland.

Anybody wants info on AFH and Lawrence let me know.

weird KU played at home against Hall last year...two home games in a row for them but i'll take it

 

[navery12]

If this ends up being true I like that they scrapped needing to swap home and away every year in favor of getting the best matchups. A team like Creighton does get screwed with 2 straight road games, but on the whole I think it's for the best

 

[Rico444]

UConn/Kansas is going to be one of the games of the year. That's going to be a lot of fun.

We've never beaten them.

EVER. (albeit only 0-3)


Im glad we get a chance in pre-season OOC and not with Tournament pressure to break this damn seal.

 

[Com'rGordon]

I'm buying tickets for this the second they come out! I've been looking for an excuse to go to Allen Fieldhouse for years, this is perfect

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Couldn't have been better. So excited!

Now, if I can make it to Lawrence for that game it would knock off a bucket list arena to visit and get to watch UConn play!

Another fun fact is that Lew Perkins took prime seats away from Phog Allen's grandson because he didn't have enough donor points.

No info needed, but I will take a pair of tix

 

[August_West]

Man the bottom of our league is in for a rough time.


Jamie Dixon will eat Cooley's lunch.

I'm fairly confident I can get some. Just not sure I can get extras. It's obviously going to be a hot ticket.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

The bottom of the BE will get curb-stomped.

 

[Da_Aisijimo_Gou]

5 > 4

 

[How Sway?!]

Nice of the big 12 to remind Cincy and UCF of their place in the hierarchy

If @kobe didn't already know his school was a mid-major, I think his new conference just hammered that point home.

Also would love some if you can pull off some extras

 

[Umami Zen]

Of course its at Kansas.. If you think Bill Self is goin' to bring his squad to itty bitty Storrs.. BB Capital of the World.. You be crazy!!

 

[Blue Blood]

5 > 4

Needs to be on a shirt for that game

Include me in this!

This is better for us. Think about it. We'll get a home game next year. Eventually it will be KU.

We had OSU this year.

 

[HailUConn]

Keep these marquee games, they are magnets for recruiting.

 

[shizzle787]

Nice. Need three more H/H P5 series. Two at home; one away.

 

[Brochacho]

We had OSU this year.

Interesting to note Kansas had a home game last year too. They must've tweaked the matchups with the added teams and Texas/OU on the way out.

@ Kansas, 2 vs Texas, Louisville, or Indiana and the Jimmy V is a heck of a 2023-24 OOC schedule. Hope we can add a good home game, but with the strength of the BE if Hurley wants to do 7 cupcakes more power to him.
