Friday, the team will face off against the Buffaloes at 4 p.m. in Boulder, Colo. On Sunday, the Jayhawks will meet the Longhorns in at 1 p.m. in Austin, Texas.

The Jayhawks tied Oklahoma State last weekend 2-2 through two overtime periods. Kansas lost the second game of the weekend to Oklahoma University 2-1.

Kansas has played conference rival Colorado twelve times, and the Buffaloes lead the record 6-5-1 and are 3-2 against the Jayhawks at home. Colorado took home a victory after playing Baylor last weekend 3-2 but fell to the Texas A&M Aggies 4-2. This season, the Buffaloes are at a 7-4-3-overall record, and are 3-2 in conference.

The Soccer America Poll ranked the Longhorns No. 1 in the country last Monday. They have since fallen to No. 6 after losing to Texas A&M 2-0. Texas has scored 25 goals this season, is 9-1-2 overall, and is 2-0-1 in conference play. Seven of the team’s nine victories have been at home this season, which is where the Jayhawks will meet them on Sunday. Kansas has only won one out of twelve games against Texas. They also tied once.
