Sims stands out for Kansas once again

By Staff     Nov 24, 2013

**1. James Sims:** Rushed for 96 of his 114 yards in the first half and repeatedly pushed a pile of defenders, making something out of nothing.

**2. Jake Love:** Led team with 13 tackles, two for losses.

**3. Jake Heaps:** Betrayed by more drops that a carton of Smith Brother’s lozenges, Heaps zipped accurate passes, sometimes into tight spots and all he had to show for them were lousy numbers: 7 for 19, 72 yards. The line protected well for him, but Kansas desperately needs to recruit another impact receiver or two to join Miami (Ohio) transfer Nick Harwell.

**4. Dexter McDonald:** Showed good balance and hands, leaning back and reaching up to snag an interception.

**5. Tedarian Johnson:** Will play a key role in the middle of the defense next season. Had five tackles.

**6. Dexter Linton:** Had four tackles, one for a loss.

**7. Courtney Arnick:** Quick linebacker/nickel back had seven tackles.

**8. Ben Heeney:** Missed more tackles than he usually does but also had some big ones, catching ball carriers from behind.

**9. Riley Spencer:** Did a nice job in protecting the quarterback’s blind side.

**10. Damon Martin:** Right guard has two remaining years of eligibility, which means two more years to improve his already impressive strength and two more years to become well-conditioned.
