Two Publications Tab Kansas Football Fourth In Big 12 North

June 25, 2010

LAWRENCE, Kan. – Two preseason football publications have predicted the Kansas football team to finish fourth in the Big 12 North Division this upcoming season.

Blue Ribbon College Football Yearbook released its picks, along with an all-conference first team Friday. The magazine lists the Jayhawks behind Nebraska, Missouri and Colorado.

Jayhawk sophomore offensive tackle Tanner Hawkinson was tabbed as a preseason all-conference lineman.

Recently Phil Steele Magazine projected KU fourth in the same order as Blue Ribbon.

Kansas will open its 2010 season under first-year head coach Turner Gill hosting North Dakota State on Sept. 4. Season tickets are available at www.kuathletics.com, via phone at 1-800-34-hawks, or in person at the ticket office on the south end of Allen Fieldhouse.
