Kansas football’s misery over the last decade can be summed up with the following: A losing record every season, shuffling through four interim/head coaches and a general ineptitude that has put the program among the laughingstocks of college football.
Things weren’t supposed to change much this season, as head coach David Beaty entered the 2018 campaign with a 3–33 record and justified that sorry mark when the season opener resulted in a loss to FCS opponent Nicholls State.
But the Jayhawks then put together a mini-winning streak by beating Central Michigan in Mount Pleasant, snapping a 46-game road losing streak, and destroying equally pitiful Rutgers the next week.
