6Sports video: Jayhawks 2-0 on the season
1975 was the last time a Kansas football team held back to back opponents under ten points, until Saturday. The Jayhawks were looking to start the year 2-0 for the fourth straight season against FCS opponent Southeastern Louisiana.
The Fifth Quarter: Kansas 62, SE Louisiana 0
Tying up loose ends from KU’s 62-0 blanking of Southeastern Louisiana, which was the school’s first shutout since a 42-0 win over Southern Illinois in 2000.
Wolverines humiliated once more

Lions suffer bad breaks
Southeastern Louisiana’s football program, which netted $275,000 for playing at Kansas University, suffered a rather costly defeat Saturday night at Memorial Stadium. “It’s not worth a nickel to lose a guy like that for our season,” Mike Lucas, coach of the second-tier school, said dejectedly after a 62-0 loss to the Jayhawks.

(Not that it really matters, though)
It’s nitpicking at its finest, so here goes: Kansas University is struggling to create turnovers.

Band-day beatdown
Jayhawks rough up little Lions
In all aspects, Saturday’s snoozer at Memorial Stadium just wasn’t a fair fight. That was symbolized countless times in Kansas University’s 62-0 football victory over Southeastern Louisiana. The Jayhawks’ defensive line often would explode at the snap, toss the Lions’ offensive big boys aside and swarm to the football. Chaos ensued.

No. 9 V-Tech unravels at LSU

Lane lifts A&M in 3OT
Texas A&M turned to its powerful running back to stave off Fresno State on Saturday. Jorvorskie Lane rushed for two of his four touchdowns in the second and third overtimes as the 23rd-ranked Aggies beat the feisty Bulldogs, 47-45, in the first three-OT game in A&M history.
