And so it ends.
Unlike last year, where the season just kind of (fittingly) abruptly ended, we got an actual conclusion to 2021, and surprisingly it wasn’t all bad! Kansas ended the season with three one-score conference games, and even won one - on the road!
The two-win Jayhawks were 21-point dogs coming into this one as they took on a team looking for bowl eligibility, but it was far from a cakewalk for the visitors. Kansas hung around and even had the opportunity to recover an onside kick and go for the win late. Obviously the Jayhawks couldn’t convert, but simply being in that position is an improvement.
