Kansas played Arizona State in London at Wembley Stadium on Saturday, Sept. 19, 2026, with kickoff at 11 a.m. CT (noon ET), matching the claim as of the Sept. 17 post. The claim's 11 a.m. time is a Central time figure; other sources list it as noon ET or 9 a.m. MST, which are the same kickoff.
This claim is about the present, so it is judged as of the day it was checked.
What was said
… Stand, bright and early on Saturday morning, you're going to be calling a game in Manhattan. We'll save that one. Let's start with the KU game first, because this is KU's season. I feel like on Saturday in London against Arizona State, they're going to kick off at 11 a.m., and they decided to wait and go late, which I think Kansas State did last year going to Ireland, and Arizona State left last week right after their game and spent the whole week there in London. Does it matter, and is this a game that KU can possibly win? …

Supports. AP News reports Kansas and Arizona State played an NCAA college football game at Wembley Stadium in London on Saturday, Sept. 19, 2026.[1]
Supports. Multiple schedule and preview sources give the kickoff as 11 a.m. CT on Saturday, Sept. 19, in London, consistent with the claimed time.[2][3][4]
Supports. Sun Devils and Sporting News previews list the kickoff as 9 a.m. MST or noon ET, which equals 11 a.m. CT, so the time is consistent across sources.[5][6]
Context. The claim's wording was extracted from a post that refers to KU's game, so 'Kansas University' is the post's own referent and no details were added beyond the passage.
