Hayden High School alum DeShawn Hanika got the Jayhawks on the board first with a 4-yard touchdown reception in the opening quarter. Quarterback Jalon Daniels had a stellar performance, tossing four touchdowns and finishing 18-of-25 for 280 yards, along with an interception.

For reference, KU — under Grimes — only attempted 15 fourth-down attempts all last season. Kansas converted 10 of its tries, for a fourth-down conversion percentage of 66.7%. Still, the Jayhawks’ number of attempts ranked dead last in the Big 12.

In what may seem like an insignificant game, Kansas could still use the upcoming contest against Wagner to further its preparation for the Border Showdown.

College football returned this weekend as the Kansas Jayhawks took on Fresno State. The game took place inside the newly renovated David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium.

Kansas football won its season opener at home against Fresno State. Now, it looks ahead to a game at home against Wagner and a chance to go 2-0.

If you identify as a “sicko,” please don’t feel bad about the nickname. It’s a term of affection in college football circles that means you love the sport so much that you’re willing to watch (and bet on) just about any game that shows up on your TV.

A new documentary premieres soon featuring the unforgettable 2007 matchup between Kansas football and their hated rivals.
