Kansas fans are still reeling from Saturday’s difficult 42-31 loss to the Missouri Tigers in what was the first matchup between the two since 2011, and eventually the biggest comeback win the SEC side has seen since 2016, with that 15-point comeback effort.
Now is no time to throw all the toys out of the pram. Despite what the scoreline may suggest of a double-digit loss, the game reads much closer, as it was ultimately one sustained Mizzou stint that pushed Eliah Drinkwitz’s team past the Jayhawks.
The Jayhawks still look well-rounded on both sides, and quarterback Jalon Daniels has been able to work with a revamped core of receivers that has seen him already amass 679 yards in three games.
