OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE GAME: DE'ANDRE MANN
BRUNH. DE ANDREL MANY
The running back had 12 carries for 65 yards. He also had a catch-and-run of 36 yards in the fourth quarter, although the game was well out of reach by then. He picked up a key first down on the jayhawks' scoring drive in the first quarter.
DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE
GAME: JACOREY SHEPHERD Going into the game, the Kansas secondary focused on Duke receiver Jamison Crowder. Shepherd was key in covering Crowder and limiting him to two catches for 14 yards
PLAYER KANSAS STRUGGLED TO CONTAIN: SHAUN WILSON
The freshman running back burned Kansas and ran for 245 yards and three touchdowns. With his eight-yard run as time expired, he broke Duke's single-game record for rushing yards. He was also virtually untouched by the Kansas defense on his long touchdown runs of 69, 68 and 45 yards.
OFFENSE SUMMARY
OFFENSE SUMMARY The whole offense had a game to forget, especially quarterback Montell Cozart. He often looked uncomfortable and nervous. He bobbed snaps, kept the ball too long and overthrew receivers.
DEFENSE SUMMARY
The scoreboard says it all. The Kansas defense gave up big plays, including Wilson's touchdowns and a 36-yard touchdown through the air to start the game.
KHLOE KIM/THE DUKE CHRONICLE Sophomore quarterback Montell Cozart scrambles from Duke defensive tackle Carlos Wray. Cozart headed a Kansas team that was defeated 41-3 on Saturday in Durham, N.C.
SPECIAL TEAMS SUMMARY
QUARTER SUMMARIES
SPECIAL TEAMS SUMMARY Punter Trevor Pardula was the bright spot. He was called on to punt eight times, and his punts averaged 51.8 yards, including a booming 72-yard kick in the third quarter. The Jayhawks were unable to return any of Duke's punts, but Shepherd had a nice 31-yard kickoff return in the second quarter.
PLAY OF THE GAME
Wide receiver Tony Pierson converted on a third down in the first quarter with a 14-yard catch. It set up Matthew Wyman's 34-yard field goal.
PLAY OF THE GAME
QUARTER SUMMARIES First quarter On its opening drive, Duke quarterback Anthony Boone connected with Max McCaffrey for a touchdown. Duke would add a field goal and Wilson's first touchdown run to start 17-0. Wyman made a field goal for Kansas' three points.
KHLOE KIM/THE DUKE CHRONICLE
Second quarter Duke tacked on a field goal to make it 20-3, but otherwise the Kansas defense held. Cozart threw his second pick of the game. On a promising drive, Cozart was sacked and was driven out of field goal range.
Third quarter - Visions of the first quarter came back and haunted Kansas. McCaffrey and Wilson scored their second touchdowns.
MOVING FORWARD
Fourth quarter — Duke and Kansas each had a turnover on downs. Kansas running backs Mann and Corey Avery had a couple nice runs that didn't turn into anything. Duke capped its scoring with Wilson's third touchdown.
There seems to be cause for concern, especially with Cozart. At times, he looked like he didn't know what to do and didn't want the ball. The wide receivers were never part of the game. Three receivers, Pierson,
down the field when it wanted to. At the very least, this Kansas team shows it has road jitters. It will be interesting to see how the team responds next week at home.
Nick Harwell and Justin McCay, each had two catches; tight end Jimmay Mundine added three. The running game showed promise, but was not utilized. The defense was burned for big gains, but also let the Duke offense march
Kansas tennis has mixed results at weekend tourney

The Kansas women's tennis team cannot call its tournaments in Midland, Texas, and Little Rock, Ark., a success, but coach Todd Chapman didn't call it a failure either.
"It was definitely a learning experience for us," Chapman said. "Some of our results weren't exactly what we hoped to have. We had a couple girls that did really well, but we had mixed results."
For seven of the 11 players on the team, the tournament was their first time on the court at the collegiate level. Smith Hinton, a freshman from Raleigh, N.C., advanced to the quarterfinal in Texas, but her remaining match was rained out. Hinton was the only player to win a match at the Midland Invitational.
Overall, senior Maria Belen Luudena was the most successful Jayhawk of the weekend. At the CCLR Collegiate Invite in Little Rock, she defeated Arkansas'
Oleksandra Shkorupeieva to become the singles B Flight champion. Luduena was the only player for Kansas to win on the first day of that tournament.
"It was definitely a learning experience for us. Some of our results weren't exactly what we hoped to have."

Kansas tennis coach
These tournaments included other Big 12 competition like Oklahoma State and Texas Tech, as well as some ranked opponents. Chapman said that his team needs to acclimate itself to face better competition.
"When you're playing against really good players, which we did at both tournaments this weekend, you get mentally and physically fatigued with every single point, and as a group we have to get used to doing that," Chapman said.
Kansas' doubles record over the weekend was the most concerning for Chapman; the Jayhawks did not win a doubles match over the entire weekend.
"We've got to get a lot better at our doubles," he said. "Our doubles results were not very good at all in both tournaments."
Chapman said it was important to challenge his players by sending them to tournaments that show their weaknesses.
"[Playing better competition] exposes weaknesses and that's why we're playing in the tournaments we play in. We want to see what our weaknesses are... it lets us know what we need to work on," Chapman said.
The team will play in the Oklahoma Invitational next weekend. Chapman said he hopes to improve in doubles matches and gain more collegiate experience for the young team.
