Born in 1890 in Lawrence, Kansas, Kansas Jayhawks Football blends tradition with a forward drive that keeps Saturdays buzzing on the hill. From the first kickoffs along Mount Oread to packed Big 12 matchups, KU football anchors a campus and community that rally together every fall.

Highlights span conference titles in the MVIAA and Big Eight eras and a signature 2008 Orange Bowl win over Virginia Tech that capped a 12-1 season under Mark Mangino. Legends like Gale Sayers and John Riggins set the standard, while the annual Sunflower Showdown with Kansas State fuels bragging rights statewide. At David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium, the Booth erupts as students roar Rock Chalk and fans wave the wheat, with pregame tailgates lining the hill and the Marching Jayhawks driving the beat. It is welcoming, loud, and unmistakably KU.
