KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The good times continue in Lawrence, Kansas, as the Kansas football team announced its third-straight sellout at David Booth Memorial Stadium.

On Saturday, Texas Christian University will head to Lawrence to take on the Jayhawks in a top 25 showdown.

When the Jayhawks take the field, it'll mark the first time since 2008 that Booth Stadium sold out three games in a row.

Festivities on KU's campus will begin at 8 a.m. as ESPN's College GameDay heads to Lawrence for the first time.

The GameDay crew, featuring Desmond Howard, Kirk Herbstreit, Lee Corso, Pat McAfee and David Pollack, will provide coverage from The Hill on campus.

Right before kickoff, Corso will make his traditional pick by putting on the head of either the Jayhawks' or TCU's mascot.

The Jayhawks' game against TCU is the beginning of a tough four-game stretch that features match-ups against Oklahoma, Baylor and Oklahoma State.
