If you’re looking to gauge the real potential of the Jayhawks, keep an eye on their performance this Friday night. A dominating win against Nevada could very well signal their intentions for the rest of the season.
The Jayhawks’ schedule, particularly the game against Texas, is garnering a lot of attention. After Texas takes on Baylor, the Longhorns meet Kansas before a big game against Oklahoma. Given the stature of the two teams, they’ll be facing before and after Nevada, their game against the the Jayhawks seems like a potential trap. Texas must be wary, as this “sandwich” game offers the Jayhawks a prime opportunity to make a significant statement.
So, while the odds heavily favor Kansas in the upcoming game against Nevada, the real contest to watch out for would be when they square off against the Longhorns. Still, for fans and pundits, Friday night will be an excellent chance to scout the Jayhawks and see if they indeed have what it takes to challenge the big guns of college football this season.
