Randle touchdown gives KU win (2004 Season)

Just two plays after a Kansas State punt that went out of bounds at the Wildcats' own 38-yard line, KU running back John Randle put the game out of reach. Randle took a toss to the right, broke a couple tackles near the line of scrimmage, spun out of another, slipped through Jesse Tetuan's hands and nearly carried Cedrick Williams into the end zone. Randle's spectacular 43-yard scoring run gave KU a 10-point lead with just ... View play.

Clark Greene nears the century mark (2003 Season)

Who would think that amidst Whittemore's 42 passing attempts for 243 yards and 17 rushes for 84 yards that a running back would have any time to get just as close to that century mark in rushing? Well, much like he has all season, Clark Greene made a valiant effort ... View play.

Whittemore Improvises (2003 Season)

Just when you think that he's been knocked out of his senses, Whittemore bounces back and brings the team with him. Yes, much as we all know Whittemore often carried the Jayhawks to their much-improved 2003 season record of 6 wins and 7 loses overall (in fact, they were one of the top 3 teams in the country to improve so dramatically this year). In this play, he demonstrates ... View play

KU QB shotgun draw (2003 Season)

KU QB shotgun draw
Bill Whittemore's ability to both scramble and throw deep forces defenses to stay honest. It also gives the Jayhawks a chance to run plays like this for big gains. Lined up in the shotgun, Whittemore (4) takes the snap and drops back a step. Similtaneously, Brandon Rideau (84) runs a slant-corner, Moderick Johnson (6) runs a few yards and blocks the cornerback ... View play.


KU play-action post (2003 Season)
Another way the Jayhawks put pressure on a defense is by running play-action passes. In this case, Bill Whittemore drops back and fakes a handoff up the middle to running back Clark Green. Fullback Austine Nwabuisi fakes a lead block then runs off to the right flat and Green stops just past the line of scrimmage as outlets for Whittemore, who is really looking deep for ... View play

Nick Reid: hit of the day
Some of the best free shots don't get any better than this. Standing directly behind the defensive end, Nick Reid waits patiently for the ball to be snapped. As soon as the ball is snapped, defensive end Charlie Dennis runs into the backfield to get the attention of the fullback making the block for the quarterback. As soon as the fullback comes out to block Dennis, Reid goes in for the kill. View Play.

KU v. CU (October 12, 2002)
What Red Zone?
This touchdown connection was made twice in the game against Colorado, this one for a 26-yard touchdown. While maneuvering around the cornerback and leaving the free-safety in the dust, Marcellus Jones found himself wide open in the end zone. View Play.

KU v. Bowling Green (September 21, 2002)
Scrambled or Baked? Why Not Both
Here is yet another play in which KU's quarterback, Bill Whittemore, is challenged to produce when forced to scramble out of the pocket as the Bowling Green defense takes advantage of what could be a missed blocking assignment from the KU offensive line. View Play.

The Real McCoy
Perhaps this hit became one of the reasons why Bowling Green decided to change their offensive scheme after the first quarter. Open field hits like this cannot be allowed by an offense. View Play.
