- This season: Kansas is coming off a 52-6 win over Long Island in Week 1 in which it totaled over 600 offensive yards. The Jayhawks revamped their offense this offseason, losing Jalon Daniels to graduation but rehiring Andy Kotelnicki to call plays. Missouri obliterated Arkansas-Pine Bluff 54-14 to kick off the campaign and moved up two spots in the AP Top 25.
- Series history: Missouri leads the all-time series by a slim margin, though the two schools officially report their respective records differently due to a disputed game in 1960 that KU won but was ordered to forfeit. KU's official records have the Tigers winning the series 57-55-9 after last year's win.
Meet the Coaches

- Eli Drinkwitz, Missouri: Drinkwitz came away victorious in his first and only meeting with Kansas a year ago. He has spent the last seven seasons in Columbia after getting his first head coaching opportunity at Appalachian State.
- Lance Leipold, Kansas: Entering his sixth year at the helm in Lawrence, Leipold holds a 28-35 record with the Jayhawks. This could be one of, if not the biggest, wins for Kansas during his tenure.
