Kansas QB Jason Bean did work as he passed for two TDs and 163 yards on 26 attempts in addition to picking up 53 yards on the ground. WR Lawrence Arnold was in the mix, too, providing the Jayhawks with two touchdowns.
South Dakota's loss came about despite a quality game from RB Travis Theis, who punched in one rushing touchdown.
