How Kansas’s Future Football Schedule Comes Together
Each season Kansas plays a nine-game Big 12 slate the conference assigns, plus three non-conference games the school books on its own, often years ahead. Under the Big 12’s scheduling model, Kansas’s protected annual rivals (Kansas State) recur every year while the rest of the schedule rotates, which means the Jayhawks see the whole conference on a regular cycle.
As the Big 12 finalizes dates and Kansas fills its remaining non-conference slots, this Kansas future football schedule page updates so you always have the current opponent list and printable in one place.
