LAWRENCE, Kan. – No. 25 Kansas (1-1) will play host to Texas A&M-Corpus Christi (1-2) on Tuesday, Nov. 11. The contest will tip from historic Allen Fieldhouse at 7 p.m. (Central) and be broadcast on ESPN+.
Kansas holds a 1-0 all-time series edge on Texas A&M-Corpus Christi, with the lone meeting a KU 82-41 win on Nov. 23, 2010, in Allen Fieldhouse.
Kansas is coming off an 87-74 loss at No. 25 North Carolina on Nov. 7. Texas A&M-Corpus Christi is looking to end a two-game losing streak after its 85-77 loss at Tarleton State on Nov. 8.
Kansas has won 21-straight non-conference games at Allen Fieldhouse, beginning on Nov. 7, 2022. Additionally, Kansas is 160-6 (96.4%) against non-conference opponents inside Allen Fieldhouse under head coach Bill Self.
Through two games, Kansas is averaging 84.0 points per game and has a plus-15.0 scoring margin. The Jayhawks pull down 35.5 rebounds per contest with a plus-3.0 rebound margin.

The Jayhawks are fourth in the Big 12 in three-point field goal percentage (42.3%), which is 33rd nationally and in threes made per game (11.0), which is 54th nationally.
Freshman guard Darryn Peterson leads Kansas with a 21.5 points per game average. He is the first KU freshman to score 20 or more points in back-to-back games since 2022 All-America Ochai Agbaji did during the 2018-19 season. Peterson leads KU with six threes made and four steals through two games. Sophomore center Flory Bidunga is next in scoring at 15.5 points per game, which includes a career-high 23 points in the season opener versus Green Bay (11/3).
