At one point midway through the 4th quarter, with about 7:30 left to go, Kansas was down 16 points (2 possessions) and had just picked off Brock Purdy. The Jayhawks were 70 yards away from making this a one-score game late. The offense promptly went three-and-out, losing 13 yards in the process, and Iowa State went on to cover the 28-point(!!!) spread.
Another day in the life of Kansas football.
Out of 14 possessions, Kansas went 3-and-out six times. The offense didn’t get going until well into the second quarter, when things finally opened up and KU began throwing the ball down the field.
