Big 12 Football Cornhusker rushers quell Jayhawks

Going into Saturday's game against Nebraska, the Kansas football team knew what it had to do to win.
The Jayhawks' best chance for victory was to get ahead of the Cornhuskers early and force them to abandon their powerful running game in favor of a catch-up passing attack.
It didn't happen.
The No. 4 'Huskers (8-1, 5-1 Big 12 Conference) scored the first five times they had the ball and jumped out to a 35-3 halftime advantage. Nebraska ran for 281 yards in the first half while holding the Jayhawks to 1 net yard rushing.
By the end of the game, Nebraska had amassed 507 yards rushing, completed seven of the eight attempted passes and rolled to a 56-17 win against the Jayhawks (4-5, 2-4).
127 yards on 13 carries and scored four touchdowns.
Three Cornhuskers finished with 100 yards or more rushing. Quarterback Eric Crouch ran the option effectively and finished with
Running back Dan Alexander, who weighs 245 pounds, ran with power through the Kansas defense and gained 119 yards rushing on 15 carries. Correll Buckhalter, Alexander's backup, rushed 16 times for 100 yards.
The Jayhawks' running game was hampered by the absence of senior fullback Moran Norris, who said his injured ankle kept him out of his second consecutive game.
"I just couldn't go today," he said. "But there's two games left, and hopefully I'll be able to go in those."

Kansas senior quarterback Dylen Smith, who ran for 29 yards, said the Jayhawks anticipated that Norris would miss the game.
"We prepared like he wasn't going to play." Smith said.
Senior running back David Winbush injured his ankle fairly early, stayed in the game for a while and finished with only six carries for negative 5 yards.
The Jayhawks' running game had a bright spot. Redshirt freshman Reggie Duncan, Wnbush's backup.
broke away for a 34-yard run in the fourth quarter and accumulated 96 yards rushing. Some of his yardage came after Nebraska began rotating its second-team defenders into the game.
Duncan said he had been ready to
play Nebraska.
"I knew I was going to play," he said. "Coach talked to me earlier in the week. With Moran's injury, I knew I was going to be able to get in to play."

the Longhorns led 26-17.
No. 19 Texas 29, Texas Tech 17
Stockton tied a school record by kicking five field goals.
Texas running back back Hodges Mitchell run for 292 yards and two touchdowns, helping No. 19 Texas rally from a third-quarter deficit and overcome Texas Tech 29-17 in Lubbock, Texas, on Saturday night.
Texas quarterback Major Applewhite left the game in the third quarter because of an injured knee.
Red Raider running back Ricky Williams had put Texas Tech (6-4, 2-4 Big 12 Conference) ahead 17-16 when he scored on a 1 yard run with 10:35 to play in the third quarter.
The Longhorns (7,2, 5-1) regained the lead on Kris Stockton's 36-yard field goal on the next series. Mitchell scored on a 14-yard run with 2.07 remaining in the third quarter, and
No. 16 Kansas State 56, Iowa State 10
No. 18 Kansas State 56, Iowa State 10
Kansas State (6-2, 4-2) made Iowa State (6-3, 3-3) look bad in Manhattan on Saturday.
The Wildcats will play No. 4 Nebraska on Saturday in Manhattan. The winner of that game will likely capture the Big 12 North championship.
The Cyclones, who had already clinched their first winning season since 1989, were never in the game—the Wildcats scored early and often. K-State's Josh Scooby ran for 149 vards and four touchdowns.
No. 23 Texas A&M 21, Oklahoma State 16
Texas A&M (7-2, 5-1) stopped Oklahoma State (2-6, 0-5) at the Aggie 15-yard line with 37 seconds to play, hanging on to win in Stillwater, Okla.

Texas A&M plays No.1 Oklahoma in College Station, Texas, on Saturday.
No. 1.Oklahoma 56, Baylor 7
Oklahoma (8-0, 5-0) and the best team in the Big 12, had little trouble against Baylor (2-7, 0-6), possibly the worst team in the Big 12.
Oklahoma quarterback Josh
Heupel passed for 314 yards and three touchdowns in the first half, helping the Sooners to a 42-0 halftime lead against Baylor in Waco, Texas.
The Bears have now lost 19 consecutive Big 12 games and have scored only one offensive touchdown in their last five games.
Colorado 28, Missouri 18
The Buffaloes scored 21 points as a result of three Tiger turnovers.
Colorado (3-6, 3-3) built a 28-6 half time lead and held on, beating Missouri (2-6, 1-5) in Columbia, Mo.
Missouri closed to 28-16 in the fourth quarter, and with 6:46 left to play. Buffalo punter Jeremy Flores deliberately took a safety to make the score 28-18.
