From BYU thriller to Baylor blowout: Frost's Knights aim to snap road skid at KU

Scott Frost’s UCF football team recorded one of the biggest wins of the entire college football season two weeks ago. The Knights, playing at home, shocked previously undefeated, No. 2-ranked BYU 39-31 in a double-overtime thriller on Saturday, Oct. 24 in Orlando. Then, playing six days later, again in Orlando, the Knights were crushed by Baylor, 41-9. It was a Bears team that had just fired head coach Dave Aranda in the aftermath of a 25-24 loss to Kansas on Oct. 24 in Lawrence. “This game will reward you and this game will humble you,” Frost said this week. His Knights (4-4, 2-3 Big 12) will take on Kansas (3-5, 1-4) at 2:45 p.m. Saturday at David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium. The game will be shown live on ESPN2. “I said after last week we’re good enough to play with and beat anybody in the league,” Frost said. “We’ve got to play our best. I don’t think that was the best version of us out there and we got whipped by a good team that played really well. You never want to let your highs be too high and your lows be too low. I don’t know if the team

How KU hoops S'Mya Nichols prepared for senior year as a top WNBA Draft prospect

The Kansas Jayhawks have had just one first-round WNBA Draft pick in program history. S’Mya Nichols could be the second. The senior guard has lived up to her hype as a five-star women’s basketball prospect — and now she could even surpass it with a stellar senior season in 2026-27. She’s been an All-Big 12 first-teamer for all three record-setting years she’s spent in Lawrence thus far, growing each season as a scorer and distributor. Nichols has been a key piece for the Jayhawks since she stepped onto campus. She saw her heaviest workload in her junior year, setting career highs in games (36), minutes (1,024), points (628) and shooting (48.2 FG%, 42.93 3PT%, 84.7 FT%). But wear and tear took a toll on her body. As soon as the season was over, she immediately went into recovery mode. Nichols wanted to be in top shape for her senior year, but more importantly, she need to prepare for evaluations as a top draft prospect. “I just knew that it was time for me to completely lock in, especially on my health, because my ankles were bad that whole season. So I took that very serious,” Nichols told The Star. “I

In the sort of move that has been rather rare during Lance Leipold’s tenure as head coach, Kansas has played the same five offensive linemen for every snap each of its last two games.

“There is more consistency, and that’s what we’re looking for,” associate head coach Andy Kotelnicki said on Tuesday. “… We can’t rotate people in at any position just for the purpose of ‘Oh, we’ll get them a few reps.’ If they merit that, they can do that.”

Frontcourt duo powers Kansas women's basketball to season-opening win

Kansas women's basketball dominated down low in its 66-48 season-opening win over Omaha, powered by a masterful performance from starting bigs Jaliya Davis and Regan Williams. The frontcourt duo combined for 33 points and 17 rebounds. Williams had a block, while Davis added five blocks and two steals. This dominance down low proved essential as the Jayhawks finished the game, shockingly, without a single 3-pointer.
