Houses of the Enemy - Memorial Stadium

The second away game for the Red Raider football team will be Memorial Stadium in Lawrence, Kansas. Not to be confused with Memorial Stadium in Manhattan, Kansas, which is the former home for the Wildcats, this stadium has been home the Jayhawk football team since 1921. As one of the oldest stadiums in the Big 12 and the country, it is a historic building, but Tech doesn't seem to be too intimidated by it, with an overall record of 8-0.

History

The first 2 years of Kansas Jayhawk football were played in a park in Lawrence, but they did not have a true football field until 1892.
