It is the Jayhawks' 134th season. The Jayhawks play their home games at David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium in Lawrence, Kansas, and compete in the Big 12 Conference. They are led by third-year head coach Lance Leipold.
They entered the season with their highest expectations in several years. They were picked 9th out of 14 teams in the conference, their highest selection since the Big 12 eliminated divisions. In the preseason Coaches poll released on August 7, Kansas received a vote to be ranked. It was their first vote in a preseason poll since 2009. They also received 10 votes in the AP poll. They had 4 different players selected to the watch lists of 7 awards and five preseason All-Big 12 selections. Quarterback Jalon Daniels was also named the preseason Player of the Year for the Big 12.
The Jayhawks won their first four games to start 4–0 back-to-back seasons for the first time since starting 4–0 three straight seasons from 1913 to 1915.[1] After defeating 6th ranked Oklahoma on October 28, Kansas became bowl eligible for the 2nd consecutive season, the first time being bowl eligible back-to-back seasons since 2007 and 2008. The win also gave the Jayhawks their first win over Oklahoma since 1997, their first win over a top 10 ranked team since defeating 3rd ranked Virginia Tech in the 2008 Orange Bowl, and their first win over a top 10 ranked team at home since defeating 2nd ranked Oklahoma in 1984.[2]
The Jayhawks finished Big 12 Conference play 5–4, their most conference wins and their first winning record in the conference since 2007. They also finished tied for 7th in the conference. While they finished tied for 7th the previous season, the Big 12 expanded resulting in the Jayhawks finishing ahead of six teams instead of just two teams like the year before.
