Syracuse football is expected to add Kansas to its 2024 non-conference schedule, according to a report from Bryson Stricker of Bleacher Report. No official word has been given by either side, including which game it would replace on the Orange’s schedule. What makes the most sense is that it would replace the Army game as Army is joining the American Athletic Conference and therefore revamping its schedule. Previously, Army was one of a few remaining independents.

If this becomes official, it would give new Syracuse head coach Fran Brown a marquee non-conference game for his first season at the helm. Kansas has spent time in the top 25 polls the last two seasons, and finished the 2023 season in the others receiving votes following an 8-4 campaign. Kansas is slated to face UNLV in the Guaranteed Rate Bowl on December 26th.

The Orange’s current non-conference schedule for the 2024 season includes home games against Ohio (August 31st), Holy Cross (September 28th) and UConn (time and location TBD). The Army game is currently scheduled for September 21st and would be at West Point. If Kansas replaces that game, it would make sense to slot in on the same day. Again, nothing official has been announced.

Syracuse finished the 2023 season 6-6 and is facing South Florida in the RoofClaim.com Boca Raton Bowl on Thursday, December 21st.

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting.  EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans.  After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years.  Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports.  Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more. Mr. McAllister has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting and Information Management from Roberts Wesleyan College.
