**1. Justin Springer:** He’s everything a team would like in a somewhat undersized middle linebacker. He’s quick, tough, strong, relentless. Had seven solo tackles and eight assists and just about every one of those tackles left a bruise.
**2. James Sims:** Became the first freshman to rush for 100 yards in his debut. Had 101 yards on 17 carries and showed excellent vision and power.
**3. Daymond Patterson:** His quickness, drive, balance, and flashiness all were on display during his 32-yard touchdown reception. For the day, he totaled seven catches, 85 yards and one penalty for diving into the end zone.
**4. Jordan Webb:** Injury-slowed RT Brad Thorson had a tough time keeping his man off Webb’s back, but Webb, a redshirt freshman making his first start still had a big day and showed a lot of fire. He completed 18 of 29 passes for 179 yards and three touchdowns.
**5. Steven Johnson:** Showed a lot of quickness and toughness in making five solo tackles and six assists.
**6. Keeston Terry:** What an open-field tackler this guy is and he tackles with such authority he’ll force a lot of fumbles in his career, such as Saturday’s. Great future.
**7. Bradley McDougald:** Scored the first touchdown and other than a couple drops had a big day, catching five passes for 44 yards.
**8. Alonso Rojas:** Nailed two punts inside the 20 and still averaged 43.4 yards on his five kicks.
**9. Jeremiah Hatch:** Started at center, which was one factor in the offensive line performing so much better.
**10. Angus Quigley:** Rushed for 46 yards on eight carries. Possible future of the KU run game: Sims at running back, Quigley at fullback.
