From Duke SID.
"Duke's football game against Kansas scheduled for Saturday, September 19 in Lawrence, Kan., will kick off at 12 noon (ET). The contest -- the first between the Blue Devils and Jayhawks on the gridiron -- will be televised live by VERSUS."
Q "Why do you like Duke, you didn't even go there." A "Because my art school didn't have a basketball team."
Thanks, Jim.
2 years ago I trekked out to South Bend to see the ND game, b/c that's about as far West as Duke usually goes. Kansas is even closer (to CA), but I'm not sure there's the same allure. Now if this were a game at the Phog...
Any other Devils thinking about making the trip?
House party @ DukieInKansas's pad!!!!
With Ozzie's help, I will have 6 tickets to the game. Five are spoken for - so I have one available for someone. We can hit the Free State Brewery after the game for those of the beer persuasion! I'm sure a Duke shirt after our victory will get us free beer.
As opposed to getting arrested in Kansas City in '88.
Glad I saw this. I was about to book a trip to the game through St. Louis, in order to see the Cards on Friday night (#24 on my national baseball tour of stadiums.) Wouldn't get into KC until 10AM, that would only leave an hour (game time is 11AM CDT) from the airport. Looks like I'll have to catch the Cards another time.
I know it is out of Duke's hands as a road game, but it really would be nice if we didn't play at noon on Rosh Hashana...

If im not mistaken, VERSUS is a national tv station. If so, this would be Duke's first national televised football game since I can remember.
Those games they play on WRAL are only seen by people in the southeast.
ESPNU did a couple of Duke's games last year, but I don't count that as National TV.
This is a big game for duke, that hopefully they could win and start with a 3-0 record...
Duke @ Notre Dame - November 17, 2007 - NBC
Other than the ESPNU appearances, Duke hasn't been on national TV since 1996 (Duke@Tech on ESPN Thursday Night).
