UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH DAKOTA
LAWRENCE, KAN.
'For the second straight season the Jayhawks open up at home against a team from South Dakota. Last year's 31-17 victory over South Dakota State became Kansas' lone victory and one
of the only bright spots of head coach Charlie Weis' first go-round with the Jayhawks. A victory against the University of South Dakota may not prove much but confidence counts for a lot at the beginning of the year.

Forty-five yards and a few seconds separated the Jayhawks from back-to-back wins last season as the Owls scored nine unanswered points in the fourth quarter to edge out a one point victory. Rice pushed Kansas' defense around for more than 400 yards, a troublesome sight early in the season.

ST. LOUIS — Joe Kelly tossed six strong innings and Matt Holli-drove in a run for a seventh straight game, lifting the St. Louis Cardinals to a 6-1 win over the Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday night.
St. Louis has won six of its last seven, including the first two games of this three-game set. The first-place Cardinals have won eight of their last 10 against the third-place Reds and lead them by $4\frac{1}{2}$ games in the NL Central.
