It took KU 11 seasons to make it back to another bowl game when they met Brigham Young in the 1992 Aloha Bowl on Christmas day in Honolulu, Hawaii. The game got off to a less than stellar beginning when BYU’s Hema Heimuli ran back the opening kickoff 94 yards for a touchdown.
The rest of the game went much better for Kansas which went on to best the Cougars 23-20.
Senior Dana Stubblefield sacked BYU’s Tom Young three of the six times the Jayhawk defense dumped the quarterback behind the line of scrimmage. On the strength of those sacks, Stubblefield was named the game’s most valuable player.
