Kansas Jayhawks Game Notes
Jason Bean completed 15 of 32 passes for 218 yards and two interceptions during Saturday’s 38-33 win against Oklahoma. He also had four rushes for 62 yards with one touchdown. Bean may have not been great in the stat-line, however, he did help the Jayhawks pull off one of the biggest upsets in school history. They spoiled Oklahoma’s undefeated season and Bean added his first rushing score of the season. It was reported that Jalon Daniels could be back for this game, but that did not happen. Kansas will play at Iowa State next week who have one of the better defenses in the conference.
Iowa State Cyclones Game Notes
Rocco Becht was 19-for-31 passing for 238 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Saturday’s 30-18 win versus Baylor. Becht had thrown at least one touchdown pass in eight straight games. Over the last few weeks, he has played more of a game manager role which has worked well for the Cyclones as they are 4-1 in the conference. Becht will likely be asked to do a bit more over the next month of the season as they play tougher competition. That starts this next week with Kansas.
