SEASON SUMMARY:
 

The first game in KU’s Hoch Auditorium was Jan. 6, 1928, a 29-26 victory against Washington University of St. Louis.  Hoch would see many conference championships won by KU, but not that season.  The Jayhawks finished 9-9, fourth in the Valley.  Those nine defeats, all in conference play, gave KU more conference losses than in its previous six seasons combined.
