In this story:

The Kansas Jayhawks have lost two of the last three (both on the road) and are looking to get back in tomorrow's Homecoming game against the Oklahoma Sooners. 

And coming off of a full week of rest, some of the more troubling injuries in the last couple of games don't seem to have been able to keep players out of the lineup.

As usual, the final depth chart is still subject to change based on practices and during the week game-planning.

Takeaways

The only real change to the depth chart is that Hayden Hatcher is still in a "in case of emergency" type spot. When asked about injuries this week, Lance Leipold shared that Jalon Daniels and Hayden Hatcher were both participating in practice, but that both were doubtful for the game against Oklahoma. Given what we have seen from the team, it's likely that the loss of Hatcher might be more impactful in the game than the absence of Daniels.

There are still plenty of reasons to be excited about this team, starting with an offense that was absolutely electric in the last few games with a nearly identical depth chart. On the defense, despite the loss of Hatcher and a potentially limited Jereme Robinson, the fact they play much better at home should go a long way to keeping them in this game.
