Tonight @7PM CT versus the 0-4 Texas Southern Tigers, coached by one time Indiana coach Mike Davis.
FRIDAY (yes, Jayhawk fans, two games in one week!) is against the 2-2 Oakland Golden Grizzlies (who are in Auburn Hills, MI, by the way).
Both games in AFH, broadcast on Jayhawk Network TV on Spectrum (new name for TWC) and simulcast in the KC metro region on KCMI TV 38 (thank you again, KCMI TV!)
P.S. -- a hearty THANK YOU! and ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK! to jaythawk1 and son for the HAWK SIGNAL!

This ESPN televised game (4:30 pm CT) will be the last game in the Naismith Hoophall Miami Invitational for both teams.
Princeton and Miami will play the final game in the Invitational after KU v SU is over.
Our Jayhawks best slap on the Coppertone to play in the bright lights against Boeheim's 6-0 perennial powerhouse and his famed Syracuse zone defense.
But our Jayhawks can do it!
ROCK CHALK!

Playing another Syracuse style zone (Washington's coach is a former Boeheim assistant), but from a team without quite the same length as the Orange. link
This will be the boys only regular season game in the Sprint Center for this year.
Best of luck, guys, turn on that Power & Light!

Opening the run @8:00 PM CT tonight (ESPN2) for an unprecedented 14th straight NCAA Division 1 men's basketball conference title, on the road, deep in the heart of Texas at the Frank Erwin Center.
Bill Self thinks 13-5 will win the conference title outright this year.
Both asteroid (KU, WVU, TT, OU) and CorpusJayhawk (OU, TT, KU, WVU) have provided their pre-conference projections for this season, and it looks to be one of the toughest conference runs since the streak began way back with the 2004-05 season..
Here's Matt Tait on KU @tu.
Latest guesstimates I have read being bandied about are to expect KU to play shorthanded (1) tonight against Texas and (2) on Tuesday Jan 2 against Tech in the Jayhawks conference home opener before being joined by De Sousa and Preston for the Dec 6 road game @TCU. NCAA offices are currently closed for the holidays, but will be open again - IIRC - starting Jan 2, 2018 (if I'm wrong, then it's Jan 3).
Even shorthanded, KU is favored to squeak out a road win to add to asteroid's "Road Wins" table and a big "1" in the "Home Loss" table.for the SS Shorthorns.
Make it so, Jayhawks!

Our conference home opener comes against Texas Tech tonight, and Tech -- which has never won in AFH (KU presently 17-0 against them in The Phog).-- is a much different animal this year than in year's past. Tech comes in as the top defensive team in the conference, and in some projections (such as CorpusJayhawk's ) is currently the biggest roadblock in KU's path to #14Straight. asteroid's updated current projections has Tech 3rd behind KU and WVU.
Here's Matt Tait on TTech @KU.
Barring last minute news from the newly reopened post-holiday NCAA, expect KU to play without Silvio De Sousa and Billy Preston for one more game against Tech tonight. Hopefully they will both be on board for the Dec 6 road game @TCU, which promises to be another tough venue, as we saw in OU's win there this past weekend.
Even shorthanded, KU is favored by most (except Corpus' model) to win in AFH tonight. And this season, with the competition the toughest we have seen in years, defending the home court is a must for every team looking to make a serious run for the Big 12 title.
Make it so, Jayhawks!

JAYHAWK BALL NIGHT!
8 PM CT in Morgantown
Probability wise, I think we are all concerned that we will see what we've seen the last four years in Morgantown.
Heartwise, we know our guys have been solid on the road so far this year.
If they give it their best tonight they can enjoy the trip home for the first time since Spring 2013.
Let's GO, JAYHAWKS!
ROCK CHALK! JAYHAWK! KU!

JAYHAWK BALL NIGHT!
6 PM CT in Norman on ESPN
As always, the home court advantage looms large for the home team.
But this year, seemingly more than most, our Jayhawks have been even better on the road than they have at home in the Phog. Heresy, I know, but so far this season it has proved to be the case.
As noted by others on the RCB, tonight presents our Jayhawks with the golden opportunity to go 2 up on WVU and KSU, and to drop OU out of that group and back to the middle of the pack at 3 games back (4-4) with TX. Even though there will still be 10 games remaining in the conference schedule for everyone after tonight, and even though a KU win would not represent a certainty that #14 will be KU's, anybody -- fan or foe -- would have to like (or dislike, as the case may be) the title chances for the Jayhawks with a win tonight in Norman! So, come on Road Warriors!
Let's GO, JAYHAWKS!
ROCK CHALK! JAYHAWK! KU!

JAYHAWK BALL NIGHT!
Talk about your big games.
A win in Manhattan keeps KU all alone atop the Big 12 at least until next Saturday.
A loss and we could potentially see a 5 way tie for first in the conference between
KU
KSU
OU (hosts BU Tuesday)
TT (hosts TX Wednesday)
WVU (visits ISU Wednesday)
by COB Wednesday.
As always, the home court advantage looms large for the home team.
But to repeat my earlier point -- this year our Jayhawks have been even better on the road than they have at home in the Phog.
Come on Road Warriors!
Let's GO, JAYHAWKS!
