Kansas football: One player to watch against Oklahoma

The Kansas football team will face the nation’s third ranked Oklahoma Sooners Saturday. The season does not get any easier for David Beaty’s Jayhawks. After a few highlights but far too many first half turnovers, the Jayhawks have their most difficult test of the season.

As a matter of fact, 2008 was the last time a potential Heisman Trophy winning quarterback played at Memorial Stadium. Colt McCoy carved up the Kansas defense on that cold, snowy Saturday in November. The Longhorns won easily 35-7 before a crowd of over 51,000.

McCoy didn’t win the Heisman that season.
