Before Kansas and UNLV football kick off Tuesday at Chase Field for the Guaranteed Rate Bowl, the two teams ingratiated themselves to the Valley by giving back for the holidays.
Kansas partnered with the Guaranteed Rate Bowl and Salvation Army in Phoenix on Christmas Day Monday. Players handed out meals and spent time with kids, playing games and working on arts and crafts at the Phoenix Convention Center.
