The Kansas Jayhawks and Kansas State Wildcats will play at the exact same time when they host Big 12 football games on September 27.

K-State will play UCF at 11 a.m. inside Bill Snyder Family Stadium on FS1.

Football fans across the Sunflower State can enjoy brunch while they watch their favorite teams kick off that morning.

The Wildcats (1-3, 0-1 Big 12) don’t play this week, but their game against UCF will have high stakes. Chris Klieman’s team is off to its worst start since 1989, and K-State is running out of time to turn its season around. The Knights are 2-0 with wins over Jacksonville State and North Carolina A&T.

The Jayhawks (2-1) are looking to bounce back from a loss to Missouri. They will host West Virginia at 5 p.m. on Saturday and then follow that up with another home game against Cincinnati.
