Maurice Gaddie animated a Kansas home finale by dousing teammates with Gatorade and ice water amid a 34-24 win over Iowa State. Senior moments included hugs among Dercher Thoren McGraw and Bratten, all from the 1994 recruiting class, as players anticipated a bowl bid and reflected on a final Memorial Stadium return.
Kansas University under first-year coach Terry Allen unveiled a more open attack in a 34-24 victory over Iowa State at Memorial Stadium. The Jayhawks racked up 355 total yards, including 162 passing, with Zac Wegner throwing for 140 yards.
Kansas fans saw a strong first half as blocked punts by Harris and Allen helped Kansas build a 27-3 lead. Zac Wegner connected for a 46 yard TD pass, while Jayhawks dominated with 355 total yards and a season high 162 passing yards. Kansas coach Terry Allen praised the effort as bowl hopes remained alive with two games left.
Kansas wore blue jerseys and blue pants for the first time since 1994. Ron Warner had four tackles for losses including two sacks to raise his season total to 12.5, sitting out last week on a one game suspension. KU finished 5-7 at home and beat Iowa State for the seventh straight season. Darren Davis ran for 261 yards on 42 carries for ISU. Joe Garcia kicked 21 and 44 yard field goals for KU. Matt Johner subbed for an injured Zac Wegner in the third quarter. The crowd was about 34,000 with a 60 degree, windy afternoon and a reunion of 1957 KU players present.
Iowa State coach Dan McCarney says injuries forced shuffles on special teams and defense, stressing it’s not an excuse but a fact as Kansas exploited the situation.
