Jayhawks in the Digital Rankings
EA Sports' upcoming College Football 27 has assigned the Kansas Jayhawks an overall rating of 77, placing them 66th among all teams in the nation.
The rating reflects a challenging outlook for the program, especially when compared to its conference peers.
Quarterback play has been identified as a particular weak spot, with both Chase Jenkins and Isaiah Marshall sharing the 20th‑best spot in the Big 12 and posting a 74 overall score, while teammate Cole Ballard sits at 70.
Wide receiver Nik McMillan, however, stands out as the Jayhawks' highest‑rated player, earning an 88 overall rating and topping the team's rankings.
McMillan's statistical profile highlights injury resistance (92) and speed (91), attributes that have propelled him to No. 31 in the Big 12 overall rankings.
Running back Dylan Edwards adds depth to the offense with an 86 overall rating and a No. 53 position in the conference, his agility and speed both rated at 95.
Despite the team's low national standing, these individual highlights suggest that Kansas possesses playmakers capable of influencing the game's dynamics.
The upcoming release of College Football 27 will likely draw attention to how these ratings translate into on‑field expectations for the Jayhawks.
