KU Ranks 3rd Among Top Cage-Grid Powers
KU, with an 8-2 football record and undefeated in basketball. ranks third among the nation's major college grid-cage powers, according to standings compiled by Don Pierce, University sports publicity director.
The rankings are based on this school year's records in football and up to Jan. 4 in basketball.
Going into the Oklahoma game Saturday night, Jayhawker teams have lost only two of their first 20 contests in these two sports.
Only Michigan State, unbeaten in 15 combined starts through Jan. 4, and Illinois, with a 16-0-1 record, top the Jayhawkers in the unofficial national tabulations.
Kansas is the only member of the Big Seven among the top 20 in the survey. Each of the schools involved, except Texas Christian university, has dropped less than six games in the two sports.
billed table.
This is KU's best record in school athletics since 1909-1910 and the third best all time. Bert Kennedy's 1909 grid team won eight of nine games while the basketball team, coached by the late W. O. Hamilton, won its first 11 games.
The Horned Frogs lost five football games and have won 11 of 12 basketball games to rank 18th on the combined table.
This year's mark also surpasses ones established in 1923-24 and 1930-31. In the latter years Coach Bill Hargiss's Jayhawkers won six of eight games as they took the Big Six football championship and Coach Phog Allen's basketball team, also conference champs, won 11 of their first 12 starts.
KU went on to win the 1931 outdoor track crown to become the only school in either the old Big Six or the present Big Seven to win all three major championships in a single scholastic year.
This year's Jayhawk two-milers defeated four foes in dual meets, captured their fifth straight conference championship and placed second in the NCAA two-mile race.
Jayhawker athletic teams have dropped only three contests in 28 outings as the basketball team opened its conference campaign against Oklahoma Saturday night.
