Kansas running back Toben Opurum looks for a hole as he charges up field against the Duke defense during the fourth quarter Saturday at Memorial Stadium.

It’s been known for a while that Sept. 13 at Duke would mark the Kansas University football program’s first opportunity in 2014 to snap a 27-game road losing streak that dates back to the 2009 season.

Now we know what time that game will kick off.

KU and ACC officials announced Tuesday that the Jayhawks’ first road test during the third season of the Charlie Weis era would kickoff at 2:30 p.m., central time, and would be televised by the ACC Regional Networks.

KU football has not won a game away from Memorial Stadium since knocking off UTEP, 34-7, during the second week of the 2009 season.

There was a time when Duke would have seemed like an ideal candidate for the Jayhawks to snap the skid against, but the Blue Devils are coming off of a 10-win season that included a berth in the ACC championship game and a wild, 52-48 loss to Texas A&M in the Chick-fil-A Bowl. Duke also returns nearly all of its starters on both offense and defense.

KU is 1-0 all-time against Duke, with the only meeting in the series coming the week after KU’s last road victory at UTEP. The Jayhawks knocked off the Blue Devils, 44-16, in front of 50,000 fans on Sept. 19, 2009.

Kansas opens the 2014 season on Sept. 6 at home against Southeast Missouri State. A game time is not yet available for the opener, which, for the second year in a row, will come after an opening-weekend bye.

The ACC Regional Sports Networks (RSN) include Fox Sports South, Fox Sports Carolinas, Fox Sports Florida or Sun Sports, Comcast Sports Net Mid-Atlantic, New England Sports Network (NESN), the YES Network or MSG Network in New York and Root Sports in Pennsylvania, in addition to several other RSNs nationally reaching 71 million homes on average.

More details about the game’s availability to viewers in Kansas will be made available as the date gets closer.
