With the 2023 Guaranteed Rate Bowl just hours away, UNLV (9-4) and Kansas (8-4) are going to clash for the first time in 20 years.
All the way back in 2002-03, both teams squared off in a unique home-and-home series against one another, splitting 1-1.
In Vegas, the Rebels were able to withstand a late, 10-point push by Kansas as UNLV won 31-20 on Sept. 7, 2002.
The Jayhawks would return the favor the following season by scoring 23 in the third quarter to power them to a 46-24 blowout victory in Lawrence, Kansas.
Ever since then, both teams have not met one another since until this evening, sparking a massive amount of uncertainty with what will happen.
