The Jayhawks make their first appearance in the preseason top 25 since 2008.
The Kansas Jayhawks are back in the national spotlight, securing the No. 24 spot in the preseason US LBM Coaches Poll, as announced on Monday. This marks Kansas' first appearance in the preseason Coaches Poll since 2008, signaling a resurgence under head coach Lance Leipold.
Kansas' return to the rankings comes on the heels of a strong finish to the 2023 season, where they were ranked No. 23. The Jayhawks made four appearances in the poll throughout the season, peaking at No. 23 on October 29, 2023. This preseason ranking is only the third in Kansas' history, with previous appearances at No. 13 in 2008 and No. 24 in 1996.
The 2024 season kicks off for Kansas on Thursday, August 29, with a home game against Lindenwood at Children's Mercy Park. The Jayhawks, led by standout quarterback Jalon Daniels and star cornerback Cobee Bryant, are poised for a potentially historic season, with aspirations for the Big 12 title and a spot in the College Football Playoff.
Kansas joins an elite group of five Big 12 Conference teams in the preseason poll. Utah leads the way at No. 13, followed by Kansas State at No. 17, Oklahoma State at No. 18, Arizona at No. 21, and Kansas rounding out the group at No. 24. The complete poll ranking features powerhouse programs, with Georgia topping the list, followed by Ohio State, Oregon, Texas, and Alabama rounding out the top five.
