Does Kansas play today? College football schedule for Jayhawks' next game after Week 7
The Kansas Jayhawks (1-5, 0-3 Big 12) suffered a heartbreaking 35-31 loss to Arizona State in Week 6, marking their fifth loss of the season. They have won just one game against UNLV, which was also a close matchup, with Kansas winning 23-20.
Currently in last place in the Big 12, the Jayhawks had a successful run last season, finishing with a 9-4 overall record and a 5-4 conference record. However, their hope for a huge comeback looks challenging as they will face stronger opponents in the second half of the season. As they desperately need a win, let’s look at who they will face next.
Does Kansas Jayhawks play today?
No, the Kansas Jayhawks won’t be playing today, as they have an off in Week 7. The Jayhawks will use this week to prepare for a comeback in Week 8 when they host Houston on their home turf on Saturday, Oct. 19. The game will kick off at 3:30 p.m. ET from GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City.
Can Jayhawks make it to the College Football Playoff this season?
The Kansas Jayhawks have slim chances of entering the playoffs this season. With five significant losses in six games, they are focused on winning as many games as possible to improve their overall record.
However, while they face a struggling Houston Cougars team next week, their matchups will get tougher afterward. After Week 8, they will play three consecutive games against highly ranked teams: No. 18 Kansas State, No. 11 Iowa State and No. 14 BYU.
They will also face Deion Sanders' Colorado Buffaloes, who have generated considerable hype with their impressive 4-1 record. So, Kansas is in for a real challenge, and it remains to be seen how many games they can win this season.
