Kansas football headed to college game’s birthplace | KUsports.com
“It’s a pretty cool place to play,” said Likens, who made trips to Rutgers when he coached running backs and wide receivers at nearby Temple from 1998-2003. “I’ve been there before, been up in the booth before. ... It’s an historic stadium, an historic place, and it’s gonna be a lot of fun. I’m looking forward to it.”
Getting to know Rutgers | Smithology | KUsports.com
All that disarray has led many who follow Kansas football to circle this week’s game at Rutgers (11 a.m. kickoff on Big Ten Network) as one of the few winnable dates on the schedule. But before deciding if that’s the case, we should probably get to know the important remaining members of the Scarlet Knights, because those players will be the ones trying to extend KU’s 33-game losing streak away from Memorial Stadium.
Uh oh: KU-Rutgers getting the wrong kind of attention | Tale of the Tait | KUsports.com
This weekend, when KU plays at Rutgers, two of the worst programs in the so-called Power 5 conferences will be squaring off in a game that both sides have to be looking at as a winnable and welcomed vision. One problem: The rest of the nation has caught on to just how bad these two programs are at the moment and they're not afraid to poke a little fun.
So what follows might seem disrespectful to both programs. It is perhaps unfortunate that this little ditty might seem as though it encourages college football fans to leap into the air and click their heels together with sadistic glee over the fact that, at the very least, their team isn't Rutgers or Kansas. Call this sentence an apology in advance.
Kansas Jayhawks hope Rutgers Scarlet Knights issues could open door to road victory | FOX Sports
"You see it every time you turn on ESPN, but you try not to pay attention to it," Jayhawks quarterback Montell Cozart said. "Everyone around the country has something going on with them in their locker room. Those guys are kind of going through something right now, but on Saturday when 11 o'clock comes around, they're going to be ready to play football."

Big 12 Preview: Kansas Seeks First Win at Rutgers - Big 12 Blog - Big 12 Conference Blog
When Kansas takes on Rutgers Saturday at 11 a.m., no current Jayhawk that steps on the field after kickoff will have experienced a victory away from Memorial Stadium. Kansas will look to snap a staggering winless streak of 33 games played outside of Lawrence. The last time a Kansas team recorded a victory in a hostile or neutral environment, the 2015 freshman class of Jayhawks were just eighth graders.

So many bigs: KU's front court could be crowded this season | Smithology | KUsports.com
The Jayhawks rarely lack in the depth department down low. Now entering his fourth season in Lawrence, Lucas (who red-shirted his first year) has played alongside or practiced with interior contributors such as Tarik Black, Joel Embiid, Kevin Young and Jeff Withey in the past. Still, the 6-foot-10 Lucas said the 2015-16 KU roster is more crowded in the front court than any he has seen.
