-- After two straight road games #8 Kansas (8-0 overall, 4-0 Big 12) will return home to host Nebraska (4-5, 1-4) in its annual homecoming game... The game, which will kickoff at 11:30 a.m., will be televised nationally on Fox Sports Net (FSN)... Kansas has played three of its last four games away from Lawrence... KU has won seven straight home games (5-0 this year) as well as 16 of its last 18 at home in the last three seasons... KU has the nation's 23rd-best home record in the last five years at 24-7, 77.4 percent according to research by the Navy SID office... KU will be looking to match a school record with six home wins in a season (done eight previous times)... KU has won 11 of its last 12 games played anywhere dating back to last season... KU's eight straight victories give KU its longest winning streak since winning nine in 1951-52... The 8-0 record is the best eight-game mark since posting an 8-0 mark in 1908 (that team went 9-0)... KU's eight-game winning streak is tied for the fourth longest active streak in the NCAA behind nine by Hawai'i, Ohio State and Boston College... KU will be playing on national television for the fourth time in five weeks. </p> <p align="left"></p></font><b> <p align="left">ALREADY SOLDOUT</b><font size="1"> -- This week's game against Nebraska was announced as a sellout on Oct. 9. The Jayhawks are already on a school record attendance pace for the third straight season (averaged a then record 43,675 in 2005 before breaking that mark last year with a 44,137 average). This season KU is averaging 44,096 through five games prior to this week's sellout. The last KU sellout was last season's home finale against Kansas State when 51,821 were in attendance.</p> <p align="left"></p></font><b> <p align="left">IN THE POLLS</b><font size="1"> -- Kansas enters the week ranked eighth in all four major polls (AP, <i>USA Today</i>, Harris Interactive and Bowl Championship Series). The ranking of eighth is the highest for KU since being listed sixth in the AP poll on Oct. 28, 1995. It is also just the 29th week the Jayhawks have been listed among the nation's top 10 in the AP poll all-time. The highest KU has ever been ranked by the AP? Third, for three weeks in 1968. (KU's 2007 week-by-week rankings in the polls can be found on page 21 of this release).</p> <p align="left"></p></font><b> <p align="left">LAST TIME OUT</b><font size="1"> -- <a href="/web/20080105065437/http://kuathletics.cstv.com/sports/m-footbl/mtt/mcanderson_brandon00.html">Brandon McAnderson</a> rushed for a career-high 183 yards and two scores on 21 carries and the Jayhawk defense came up big once again as Kansas posted a 19-11 victory at Texas A&amp;M on Saturday. McAnderson had four rushes of more than 20 yards as the Jayhawks ran for 227 yards and passed for another 180 in the road victory. KU limited Texas A&amp;M to 127 yards and no points through three quarters before the Aggies rallied and had a chance on their final possession. However, four straight incompletions, including a toss into the end zone on the game's final play gave KU the win. <a href="/web/20080105065437/http://kuathletics.cstv.com/sports/m-footbl/mtt/reesing_todd00.html">Todd Reesing</a> was 21 of 33 passing for 180 yards and no interceptions. <a href="/web/20080105065437/http://kuathletics.cstv.com/sports/m-footbl/mtt/briscoe_dezmon00.html">Dezmon Briscoe</a> was the team's leading receiver with six catches for 49 yards.
