With their backs against the wall, the Jayhawks have won three consecutive games against ranked opponents — all in highly cathartic fashion — to preserve what once seemed like the faintest possible hope of bowl eligibility. “We’ll see how it all finishes up, but I feel like at the end of the day, it’ll be one of the most rewarding seasons ever, just considering a month ago kind of where it was at,” ...
With the early signing period just days away, the Kansas football team got a bit of bad news on the recruiting trail as 2025 linebacker Kenyon Rivera flipped his commitment to Memphis.
