Cody Green has started the last two games -- both wins -- but the true freshman was pulled in the second quarter of the 10-3 win over Oklahoma in favor of Zac Lee, who started the first seven games of the season.
Pelini hinted that it could be later on in the week, if not right up to game time, before anyone outside the program knows who the starter will be against Kansas.
"We've got to go week to week and we're going to do what we feel like we need to win each football game," Pelini said according to the Lincoln Journal Star.
"It could be a combination of the two. It could be Zac. It could be Cody. It's something we're going to figure out as time goes on and we put in our game plans, and give us the best opportunity to win football games."
Pelini did allow that Green and Lee would likely know in short order who will start under center against the Jayhawks.
