WACO, Texas (AP) — Kansas has no gaudy turnover chain to pass around on the sideline. The Jay-hawks instead have the “Swarm Master” award.

There is no physical trophy for the Kansas defender who gets the most turnovers in games and practices during the week, but the “Swarm Master” will be first in line for meals during the road trip to Baylor and represent the defense as the pregame captain Saturday.

“There’s a lot of competition,” defensive tackle Daniel Wise said.

And a lot of turnovers.

The 13 forced turnovers by the Jayhawks (2-1) are already four more than all of last season, and they lead all FBS teams with a plus-12 turnover margin. They have forced six turnovers in each of the last two games, coinciding with their first consecutive wins since the start of the 2011 season.
