The Border War is back. The Universities of Kansas and Missouri announced Monday night that they would resume playing one another in men’s basketball starting next season. The deal is for six years and will begin on December 12, 2020 at the Sprint Center in Kansas City. The six games are divided evenly with two at Mizzou Arena, two at Allen Fieldhouse and two at the Sprint Center. The last time the two basketball programs played an official game was in 2012. The series fell apart when Mizzou left for the SEC. In 2017 the men’s basketball programs met in the Sprint Center for an exhibition to raise money for hurricane relief. The event raised over $2 million.
