Arizona State-Kansas weather forecast: Excessive heat warning in Phoenix area
From long flights to irregular sleep to time zone changes, road games come with many challenges.
When it comes to October college football in Tempe, Arizona, you can add weather to the equation.
The Kansas Jayhawks will be walking into a literal inferno on Saturday at Arizona State, with game time temperatures expected to be hovering around 105 degrees. The National Weather Service issued an excessive heat warning on Friday afternoon … and it remains in effect until Monday at 8 p.m. MST.
The NWS classifies an excessive heat warning as “dangerously hot conditions” that could lead to heat cramps, heat exhaustion and heat stroke.
This is nothing new for the Sun Devils, who deal with 100-plus degree temperatures from May through October. The Jayhawks, on the other hand, aren’t used to playing in this kind of heat. The temperature is expected to remain above 100 degrees until the sun goes down at 6:06 p.m. MST. The temperature should drop into the high 90s for the second half.
Arizona State’s first two home games of the season – Aug. 31 vs. Wyoming and Sept. 7 vs. Mississippi State – both kicked off at 7:30 p.m. MST, well after sunset. The Kansas-Arizona State game is scheduled to kick off at 5 p.m. MST, which means it will be played under a scorching sun for at least an hour.
“Once you’re above 90, it’s pretty darn hot all the way around,” Kansas coach Lance Leipold said earlier this week. “So it’ll be a challenge, but we can’t let it get to us.”
The game time temperature will rival the hottest ever recorded for Arizona State – and the top 5 hottest games were all played in late August and early September. To have a game this hot in early October is clearly an outlier.
Arizona State’s game vs. Sacramento State on Sept. 5, 2013 was the hottest game time temperature ever recorded in Tempe at 107 degrees. A close second was ASU vs. Eastern Washington on Aug. 31, 2002 at 106 degrees. Saturday’s game vs. Kansas could easily come in third.

Chiefs vs. Saints Injury Report: KC Loses Another Receiver, Add Tight End to Roster
The Kansas City Chiefs have already placed their top two wide receivers, Rashee Rice and Marquise “Hollywood” Brown, on injured reserve early in the 2024 NFL season. During this week of practice ahead of a Monday Night Football showdown with the New Orleans Saints, another wide receiver has landed on the injury report, putting his status in doubt for Monday night’s game.
Mecole Hardman was limited on Thursday and did not practice on Friday due to a knee injury, according to the team.
During the Chiefs’ press conferences on Friday, special teams coordinator Dave Toub was asked who could take on Hardman’s special teams duties if he’s sidelined against the Saints.
“We have a number of guys that can do it, obviously,” Toub said. “Nikko [Remigio] can do it, [Montrell] Washington can do it. Any of those two guys can possibly pop up if Mecole was down. Obviously, we have other guys in the mix. I mean, [Xavier] Worthy can be a punt returner, Skyy Moore, we have a lot of guys, we have a lot of options there.”
Remigio or Washington would have to “pop up” from the practice squad, which already seemed plausible as the Chiefs currently have only five receivers on the 53-man roster, including Hardman. Remigio became a favorite of fans and coaches alike during this summer’s training camp. Depending on what the Chiefs value on the active roster, as Justyn Ross also waits on the practice squad, Remigio could be a useful elevation both as a dynamic returner and a plausible offensive depth piece.
On Thursday, running back Kareem Hunt (shoulder) and defensive end Mike Danna (calf) were both limited in practice, meaning that they took some reps but less than a typical full workload. The duo shared the same designation again on Friday, both officially “limited.”
Hunt, who played in his first regular season game of 2024 after not participating in training camp or the preseason, could simply be getting a bit of extra rest before another game of heavy usage against New Orleans. Danna, who missed Week 4, should be considered a toss-up for Week 5. With the Chiefs’ bye week coming in Week 6, one more game on the sidelines would give Danna an extra week of recovery before the Chiefs take the field again in San Francisco on October 20.
Tight end Jody Fortson, who returned to the Chiefs’ practice squad on September 26 after an offseason stint with the Miami Dolphins, has been signed to KC’s active roster. In a corresponding move, cornerback Darius Rush has been signed to the practice squad to take Forton’s place.
With KC’s depleted wide receiver room, they’ll now carry four tight ends on the active roster: Travis Kelce, Noah Gray, rookie Jared Wiley, and Fortson.
