Kansas Athletics announced the non-conference schedule for the 2011-2012 men's basketball season on Sunday. On November 15th, Kansas will face Kentucky in the Inaugural Champions Classic, which is a three-year series that also features Duke and Michigan State. The Jayhawks will face Michigan State in Atlanta in 2012, followed by a matchup with Duke in Chicago in 2013.
The team will then travel to Hawaii for the EA Sports Maui Invitational from Nov. 21-23. With a field of perennial college basketball powers, Kansas could potentially face Arizona, UCLA, Georgetown, Memphis, and Duke while in Hawaii. Kansas and Ohio State also begin a home-and-home series in 2011. The Buckeyes begin the series with a trip to Allen Fieldhouse on Dec. 10. Other notable games include a matchup with Davidson at the Sprint Center in Kansas City on Dec. 19, a home game against Big East foe South Florida on Nov 19, and a trip to USC on Dec. 22.
