Game Balls

Tony Pierson, who a year ago rushed for 120 yards on 19 carries (6.3) in the Rice game, this time caught four passes for 95 yards, 77 yards coming on a touchdown on which he outran the defense along the right sideline.

• Safety Isaiah Johnson’s interception and return set up a KU touchdown.

Gassers

• Tight end Jimmay Mundine dropped a third-down pass that would have gone for a first down late in the second quarter and dropped another that would have gone for a big gain late in the fourth quarter.

 Quarterback Jake Heaps threw two interceptions, one returned for a touchdown, and showed questionable judgment making both throws.
