That just might prove to be a mistake.Regardless of the Jayhawks' performance on field, Kansas fans continue to flock to Memorial in droves. 2009 represented a struggling Jayhawk squad who managed only five wins (after a stunning 12 win season only two years prior) but still averaged 50,581 fans in a stadium that holds 50,071.Built in 1920 to honor Kansas students who died in World War I, Memorial Stadium is a tremendous college football venue. The University of Kansas may be overlooked as a basketball school that is mildly interested in its football when in reality it is a hotbed of fanaticsm for both sports. This is a list not to be excited to be on BWM.

in the end, EMAW will always win.
Regardless of the Jayhawks' performance on field...
Awful nice of KU to add that new screen so visiting fans can watch their team ass rape KU in HD.
Husky Stadium is spectacular, it doesn't even matter that they also have a track around their field.
New video board this year:
When you look at Husky Stadium you fully understand how everything else in the Big 12 except CU sucks in comparison . . . and no, the stupid f'ing hill and the scum covered pond at ku doesn't even come close.
