Wichita State won the opening coin toss and elected to give the ball to the Kansas Jayhawks Saturday, choosing Jake Smith as the strong wind in Memorial Stadium.
Little did the Shockers know that their offensive unit would not cross into KU territory until 5:20 remained in the middle. The Jayhawks had built a 54-10 lead.
KU, with last year's 13-10 WSU
batter memory, rolled to a
72-6 out of 84.
"I'm sure they wanted to try and hold us down at that end and make us kick into the wind," KU Coach Mike Gottfred said. "It it didn't work out too well for them. They're a better football team than they showed."
The Jayhawks quickly established control of the game, driving 70 yards in 12 plays. Kerwin Bell scored from the two-vardial to give KU a 7- lead.
BELL CARRIED six times for 20
yards on the drive as KU ran 7:12 off the clock. Bruce Millemy's extra point was the first of 21 points he would score in the game, setting an NCAA
"We planned to establish the running game early," said offensive lineman Paul Fairchild. "It took a lot of pressure off our passing game."
Shocker Coach Willie Jefferies then watched his team turn the ball over on its next four possessions, including three bumples, eventually resulting in 24 Jayhawk points. WSU fumbled seven times in the game, losing six of them.
"We were ready on defense," said defensive end Lyndall Yarnell, who recovered two of the fumbles. "We watched the game films and knew they would cough up the ball, but I wasn't expecting anything like this."
THE FIRST WSU FUMBLE, by punter Dave Armagost, was recovered by Elvis Patterson and gave the Jayhawks the ball on the Shocker five-yard line. Frank Seurer capped the abbreviated drive with a three-yard touchdown pass to Bell.
Jeff Collier intercepted a Tyrone Mitchell pass on the next WSU series, and returned the ball 41 yards to Chelsea. Jim Mimbs scored on a one-yard plunge.
Adrian Shipp then fumbled on the open plays of WSU's next two drives, with Yarnell recovering both, on the Wichita 35 and 15 respectively.
E. J. Jones scored on a five-yard run and Bruce Mankley kicked the first of two field goals in the third.
"Wichita State has a good team, but they got behind early and turned the ball over on their own end," Gottfried said.
JEFFERIES ATTRIBUTED the turnovers to "lack of concentration and mental toughness."
The Shockers were also without tailback Eric Denson, who had gained over 100 yards in each of WSU's two games. The Titans were imply, was suffering from a hip pointer

the first half. Searer threw a 30-yard completion to Sandy McGee and ball ran for 10 yards before Seurer conferred on a seven-vard touchdown pass.
But the Jayhawks weren't through. After a WSU肘, Mimbs took a screen pass and sprinted up the sideline for a 4-yard gain, setting up a 23-yard Kallmeyer field goal. KU led 41-0 at the half.
IF ANY HOPES of a WSU second-half comeback were alive, they were quickly squelched as Mitchell fumbled in the second half. Patterson recovered.
A pass interference penalty, one of 15 infractions called against Wichita for the game, set up a five-yard scoring line from Seer to later end Ernie Wright.
"Frank made some mistakes in the first half, and needed a couple of good series at the start of the second half." Playing to play two series, no matter what.
Seurer scrambled for 19 yards in his
last series, which resulted in a 40-yard Kallmeer field goal.
WSU FUMBLÉD its next drive, with Shipp the culprit again. Line-backer Dane Griffin recovered the ball on the 35-yard line. Klaverly booted a 34 yard field goal, bringing his string of defensive field goals for this season to nine.
Wichita State then drove 80 yards on 12 plays with Jose Wilson scoring on a 2-yard run for the Shocker's first and only score.
Kallmyer missed a 28-yard field goal to break his string, but added a 33-yard field goal to break the record
Both teams cleared their benches in the final quarter.
"We got to play a couple of freshmen today," Gottfried said. "We also made some decisions. We didn't play Mike." They had been going to probably go to redshirt them.
"We're getting better. We need to get that much better next week. Like I said, the whole thing is like a book. We had pages and now we have a good one.
Bruuuuce! Kallmeyer's 21 points set NCAA mark
Kicker's five field goals ties own Big Eight record

"Bruuuuce! Bruuuuce!"
The fans at Memorial Stadium Saturday were on their feet chanting as KU place kicker Bruce Kallmeyer trudged onto the field for the 22nd time. With 42 seconds left and KU leading 54-6, the outcome had long been decided.
Under normal circumstances, Coach Mike Gottfried would not have sent Kallmyer on the field, letting the Jayhawks run out the final quarter.
But these were no ordinary circumstances.
Kallmeyer had already kicked four field goals and six extra points, and was two points away from the NCAA record for most points scored by a kicker in one game.
The Jayhawks had run the ball to the middle of the field, purposely setting up the record attempt. The 22-yard kick was a chip shot for Kallmeyer, who had earlier boomed a kickoff into the end zone against a stiff wind.
"It was all up to the coaches," Kallmeyer said. "There was no pressure. It was pretty short, and I knew I could make it."
THE KICK was perfect, and Kallmer could tally another record onto his long list of accomplishments. The old record was shared by Princeton's Charlie Gogolak and Colorado State's Mickey Barilla. "It was all up to the coaches," Kallmer said. "There was no
pressure. It was pretty slow and I kept a 4-6 in on the Kallmyer, a senior from Shawnee Mission South High School and an academic All-American last season, did not know that he was closing in on the record until the final drive.
we wouldn't have taken that last field goal if it hadn't been for the record," Gottfried said.
"The coaches knew about it, and that's the reason we went for it," Kallmeyer said.
KALLMEYER TIED his own Big Eight record with five field goals in one game, and ran his string of consecutive points after touchdowns to 41 nine away from a KU record.
"I should have had the record the time before, but I placed the down wrong." Kallmeyer said of his mate. "We were rushing it. We were running it."
He also tied a conference record by hitting his first four field goals, which gave him nine in a row this season. Kallmeyer missed a fourth quarter kick from 28 yards out.
Kallmeyer said that 21 points in a single game was hard to imagine. His previous high for one game was 15 points against Nebraska in 1981. "It means a lot to get the record," Kallmeyer said. "There are a lot of different conferences in the country. It is a real honor holding an NCAA record."
The 25-second clock appeared to have expired before the ball was snapped.

"As far as the men's team was concerned, I thought we played well, and it was a great effort," Scott Perelman, KU tennis coach, said. "Wichita just was a very tough team.
"As far as the women were concerned, I was a little bit more disappointed," Perelman said. "Talent wise, we're just as good as they are, and yet they beat us badly."
