However, despite a strong start of 3-0 and a crucial game this week against Duke, they received news that stunned the greater college football community.

Kansas made the formal announcement on Thursday that they had sold out of tickets for Saturday's game versus the Blue Devils at David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium.

It is only the second sellout in the previous 13 seasons and the first sold-out game since 2019.

The Jayhawks have a 3-0 record, which is their best start since 2009.

It's important to remember that Kansas won their first five games in 2009, including a victory over Duke,

only to lose their next seven and lose their chance to play in a bowl game. Since then, they have changed.

Only 22 games were won by the Jayhawks between 2010 and 2021, and only seven of those victories came against Big 12 opponents.
