Here’s how to watch Kansas football vs Illinois, including streaming info, kickoff time

CHAMPAIGN, Illinois — Kansas football’s 2024 regular season continues Saturday with a non-conference game on the road against Illinois.

The Jayhawks topped Lindenwood last week to open the season 1-0. The Fighting Illini are also 1-0, after a season-opening win against Eastern Illinois. The two sides met last year in Lawrence, where KU captured a 34-23 victory.

Kansas will be the favorite, considering it’s entering the matchup as the No. 20-ranked team in the nation. Illinois, though, has home-field advantage. So, it’s an intriguing contest.
