The Kansas University marching band and many other high school bands from Kansas and Missouri perform during the halftime show as part of Band Day on Saturday, Sept. 12, 2015 at Memorial Stadium.

The Kansas University athletic department on Wednesday released the following game times for three KU football games this season.

Sept. 3 vs. Rhode Island, 6 p.m.

Sept. 10 vs. Ohio, 1:30 p.m.

Sept. 29 at Texas Tech, 7:30 p.m.

All three games will be televised, with the opener being shown on the Jayhawk Network, the Ohio game on FSN and the Thursday night Texas Tech Big 12 opener on FOX Sports 1.

A time and TV appointment for KU’s final non-conference game of 2016 — Sept. 17 at Memphis — is not yet available and the rest of the Big 12 slate will be determined on a week to week basis when the season gets rolling.

KU will take its first of two bye weeks on Sept. 24.
