9. Kansas Jayhawks (Record: 1-4)

Kansas went into halftime against TCU trailing by just four points, but with a first quarter shutout, many believed the Jayhawks were controlling the game.

The Jayhawks were doing a nice job of containing TCU, and even managed three interceptions off Horned Frogs’ quarterback Kenny Hill. But on each of Kansas’ three possessions in the fourth quarter, moving the chains was an issue, which forced the Jayhawks to rely on kicker Matthew Wyman. Unfortunately for Kansas, Wyman missed 3/6 field goal attempts, and despite its best defensive efforts, ended up losing a tough one on the road by a single point.
