Victories been few and far between during the past five years for the Kansas University football program, so it’s always cool to get a glimpse into the locker room after a big win by the Jayhawks.

Here’s a cool look from Kansas Athletics and Rock Chalk Video at last night’s locker room celebration that followed the Jayhawks’ 34-14 victory over Iowa State, which not only snapped an eight-game Big 12 losing streak but also gave interim head coach Clint Bowen his first victory as the leader of the Jayhawks.
