What time is the KU football game? How to watch, stream Kansas vs. Baylor
Aiming to snap a two-game losing skid, Kansas football hits the road for the second straight week to clash with Baylor.
Kickoff is slated for 11 a.m. CT Saturday. ESPN2 will televise the game, and fans can also stream the action through the Watch ESPN app using their cable provider login.
Kansas (5-2, 2-2 in the Big 12) quickly became college football's Cinderella story, opening the season undefeated through its first five games. Since then, though, the Jayhawks have fallen out of the rankings with losses to No. 8 TCU and Oklahoma. The Jayhawks are still without star quarterback Jalon Daniels, who's recovering from an injury. Jason Bean filled in well so far in Daniels' absence, throwing for 527 yards, eight touchdowns and a pair of interceptions.
Baylor (3-3, 1-2 in the Big 12) also enters Saturday's contest riding a two-game losing streak. The Bears lost to West Virginia last weekend and to No. 11 Oklahoma State on Oct. 1. Quarterback Blake Shapen is the man to watch for Baylor. He's thrown for 1,444 yards, 11 touchdowns and just three interceptions in six games this season.
Saturday marks the 22nd meeting between these two programs. Baylor boasts a 17-4 series advantage and it hasn't been close as of late. The Bears have won the last 12 meetings. Kansas' last series victory came in 2007.
