Kansas non-conf scheduling

Analysis: Welcome to the low end of the rankings. The (Rock-bottom Chalk) Jayhawks best ranking in any category is #105, which should tell you all you need to know. Their schedule is made up of at least one I-AA team, a couple of below-average non-BCS teams, and maybe (just maybe) a BCS team or above average non-BCS team. Probably the most challenging game they set up in the BCS era was when they played @ Toledo in 2006. Yeah.

Fact: The single elite team Kansas played was UCLA in 2001 (the Bruins finished 5th & 8th in 1997 & 1998 respectively).

Fact: Without the 5 BCS schools they’ve played, Kansas’ other opponents averaged exactly 3 wins per season.

2008 Outlook: Well, at least they have a BCS team on there – and it’s an away game to boot. @ South Florida should be tough, but home against Florida International, Louisiana Tech, and I-AA Sam Houston State can’t be considered challenging. Low end for 2008, as usual.
