BYU comes into the matchup with a No. 6 ranking in the latest College Football Playoff Top 25 rankings.
The Cougars are one of four undefeated teams remaining in college football this season.
Kansas comes into the game with a 3-6 record and 2-4 mark in Big 12 play. Led by QB Jalon Daniels and RB Devin Neal, Kansas is beginning to find its stride on the offensive end with first-year offensive coordinator and former BYU play caller Jeff Grimes.
If BYU comes away with a victory, it would give BYU their fourth 10-0 start in program history. The other occurrences where BYU started 10-0 were 1979, 1984, and 2001.
KSL Sports is on location for tonight’s Big 12 Conference clash. We will have updates throughout the evening from inside LaVell Edwards Stadium.
