No. 19 Kansas looks for signature road win against Illinois

Associated Press  

The AP Top 25 college football poll is back every week throughout the season! Among Kansas’ weapons are quarterback Jalon Daniels, who missed much of last season with a back injury after being named the preseason Big 12 Player of the Year, and running back Devin Neal, who has 13 career 100-yard rushing games. But he’s a running QB.” Praise for the Illini Leipold called Illinois a physical team that has improved through recruiting and the transfer portal since the Illini’s disappointing 5-7 season last year. ‘Superhero’ backfield Kansas offensive coordinator Jeff Grimes describes the running back duo of Neal and Daniel Hishaw Jr. this way: “Devin has the best make-you-miss ability of any big back I’ve ever seen and Daniel doesn’t want to make you miss. If you could combine those two things or challenge each of them to become more like the other, you might have a superhero.” Rare full house The sellout of Saturday’s game is the first at Memorial Stadium since 2016, when Illinois lost 48-23 to North Carolina in Lovie Smith’s second game as coach.
