NORTHEAST KANSAS (KSNT) – It was a star-studded fall episode of K-Nation.
Kansas football picked up a big home win against UCF on Saturday, vaulting the Jayhawks back into the AP Top 25. K-State struggled on the road, falling to Oklahoma State. K-Nation breaks down both matchups.
During the Jayhawks’ win against UCF, KU unveiled its two latest inductees into the Ring of Honor. Running back Tony Sands and linebacker Nick Reid take time with K-Nation’s Lainey Gerber to talk about the two’s legacy-defining achievements.
Outside of the win over UCF, the Jayhawks’ basketball teams hosted Late Night in the Phog, an annual rally to celebrate the new year. K-Nation has the recap, in case you couldn’t make it or miss it already.
