Kealing picks 11 winners, misses 2
You know, I thought I really had a chance at a trip to the land of perfection this week.
e
When I saw Fresno State pummel Kansas State, I thought my big gamble had paid huge dividends. Then, while I was sitting in the box press high above Memorial Stadium, I heard the unbelievable.
It had happened. The unranked Fighting of Notre Dame had knocked off No. 7 Michigan. I was speechless. When I had last looked at that game, the commentators had all but given the game to Michigan. I guess that shows what sportswriters know.
KICK THE KANSAN
Overall, I went 11-2 this week, with my other loss being the Washburn-Emporia State

game. Emporia State lost 28-10,
even though it recorded 382
yards of total offense. Washburn
noticed just 317 yards of total
offensive production.
Fortunately for me, no one else did any better than I did. Therefore, I'm going to consider myself the winner of the week. Two individuals did post 11-2 record, as I did. Darcy Webb and Kayvon Sarraf both missed the Notre Dame victory while Webb
picked Texas Tech over New Mexico and Sarraf selected Northwestern over Arizona State.
Somehow, everyone except my roommate liked Fresno State over K-State. When I made that selection, I thought I was being unusual. The same day I turned my picks in though, I saw an Associated Press writer pick Fresno State as well. That was where it started, but before the game kicked off, ESPN broadcasters, Lawrence Journal-World writers and others had all lined up against the Wildcats. I guess I'm just a trendsetter.
This week, I finally got to pick the games that will be in the contest, I think. The games include Notre Dame in its battle with the
other school from the Wolverine State, Michigan State. Also, the games will include Nebraska on the road at Pittsburgh. That was supposed to be Nebraska's first test of the season, however, I think Southern Mississippi already took that honor.
By going 11-2 this week just as good as everyone else I'm going to declare my overall record, Kealing 1, Campus 1. Next week, the campus is going to have to stand up and perform, otherwise, it could become a runaway. As always, good luck to all. There are a lot of games left.
Kealing is a Chesterfield, Mo. sophomore in journalism and political science.
ROCKETS: Offense shines in second victory of the season
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
The Rockets' first score came during its ninth series of the game. Starting on its own 14-yard line, junior quarterback Bruce Gradkowski led his team 86 yards in just three plays. The drive ended with a 51-yard touchdown pass to sophomore Steve Odom, who turned a short pass into a long score after shaking a couple of Kansas defenders.
The 'Hawks were quick to muster a response, however, and after a two-yard touchdown run by Randle, Kansas went into the locker room at half time with a 49-7 lead.
Randle, who received the nod to start from Mangino, racked up a personal-best 104 yards rushing with two touchdowns.
He also caught a touchdown pass and had 79 yards receiving.
"John Randle worked hard," Mangino said. "He picked up tough yardage and ran well in the open field."
While Kansas' defense led the way last week, it turned in
another strong performance this week.
Not only did it limit Toledo to only 14 points and 298 yards of offense, it also forced four takeaways.
Senior safety Tony Stubbs and junior linebacker Reid Reid each hauled in an interception.
The Jayhawks also forced two fumbles, one of which was picked up and ran in for a touchdown by junior college transfer Charlton Keith, a defensive end who joined the team last month.
Game Notes:
■ Kansas' official attendance was 41,251; 7,271 more than the number who came to see the jayhawks play their second game last season.
Freshman Scott Webb set a school record with his nine extra points in Saturday's game. The previous mark was eight.
Mangino is 4-0 in games when he wears his blue sweater vest.
Senior kicker Johnny Beck lost the extra point kicking duties after a poor performance last week. While he performed
