Men's key matchups
NOV. 17 VS. MEMPHIS
This is the first rematch of the 2008 NCAA National Championship, with a little more intrigue to it. In addition to losing the game, Memphis recently lost C.J. and Xavier Henry to Kansas. The Henrys committed to Memphis until coach John Calipari left for Kentucky.
DEC. 6 AT UCLA
These are two of the most prestigious college basketball schools in history. The last time Kansas played UCLA (the Elite 8 in the 2006-07 NCAA Tournament), Kansas lost. Kansas was a No.1 seed at the time; UCLA was a No.2 seed. This time around, UCLA isn't highly ranked, but it still has a history.
DEC. 19 VS. MICHIGAN
Michigan has gone through the rebuilding process and looks to be a top-20 team this season.
JAN. 16 VS. TEXAS TECH
Texas Tech is the only team in the Big 12 to have a winning record in the past five meetings with Kansas. After last season's stunning 65-84 loss to the Red Raiders, the Jayhawks will look to rekindle the 109-51 magic they used on them in 2008.
Women's key matchups
— Corey Thibodeaux
NOV. 26 VS. XAVIER AT JUNKANOQ JAM
The Jayhawks will travel to Grand Bahama Island to take on Xavier in the Junkanoo Jam tournament. Xavier, who finished last season at 25-7 atop the Atlantic 10 and ranked 20th in the AP top 25, should provide a good early season barometer for Kansas.
JAN. 9 AT KANSAS STATE
Kansas opens up its conference schedule with a showdown in Manhattan against Kansas State. The Wildcats took both games from the Jayhawks last season, including a 72-39 loss at home. Kansas will be looking for some payback on K-State's home court.
JAN.23 AT OKLAHOMA
Courtney Paris or not, Oklahoma is still a perennial powerhouse in the Big 12, as evidenced by its preseason rank of No.4 in the nation. This marks another statement game for the Jayhawks, who will look to make a big-time splash with a victory over the
Sooners in Norman.
FEB. 28 AT BAYLOR
The Bears are coming off of a successful 2009 campaign, during which they won the Phillip's 66 Big 12 Championship, and lasted until the regional semifinals of the NCAA Tournament. The Bears will surely have last season's 69-45 defeat in Lawrence on their minds when the Jayhawks make the visit to Waco.
MAR. 6 VS. TEXAS A&M
The Jayhawks will close out the regular season against the Aggies, yet another Big 12 team who saw success in the NCAA Tournament a year ago. Kansas will look to close out Big 12 play on a high note and provide some momentum for the tournament.
