Kansas coach Lance Leipold has been impressed by what he’s seen from away fans during the month of October. UCF's Acrisure Bounce House, he said on Monday, was a “very impressive game-day atmosphere,” and Texas Tech's Jones AT&T Stadium was “the loudest place we’ve played out this year.” Now he wants to see that same fervor replicated at David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium on Saturday when ...
