Kansas has played football since 1890 and is 560–679–54 in the 1,293 games on record here, which start in 1892. Their best finish in the final AP poll is No. 7, in 2007. They have won four Big Eight Conference titles (the last in 1968) and two Missouri Valley Conference titles, counting shared titles. Since 1944, the NFL Draft has taken 98 players from here in its first seven rounds, 9 of them in the first round. The AAFC and AFL drafts also took three players from here. The College Football Hall of Fame holds 5 players and 1 coach from Kansas. Doc Kennedy (1904–1910) won more games here than any other coach: 53. The most-played rival is Kansas State: 124 meetings; officially, Kansas leads 65–53–5 by Kansas’s count and 64–54–5 by Kansas State’s (the 1980 game, which the Big Eight ordered Kansas to forfeit, is disputed) (65–54–5 as played). This season, under Lance Leipold, they’re 2–4.

Conference titles

- 2007 (tied)
As the program counts them in its Wikipedia article, shared titles included, and listed under each conference’s current name (a Western Conference title of the 1900s counts as a Big Ten title); season pages use the name the conference had that year. A title the article files under a conference the team wasn’t in that season is listed under the one it was. Division titles include years the team tied for its division.
