Kansas State Wildcats

The Kansas Jayhawks take on the Iowa State Cyclones on Homecoming weekend, and they are trying to stay undefeated on the season.

I'll be giving updates live throughout the game here, so make sure you check back frequently. You can also follow live updates on the Rock Chalk Podcast Twitter account, and join the conversation in our Discord server.

5:55pm: Kansas forces another 4th down, and Iowa State is kicking the field goal for the tie. AND IT'S WIDE LEFT!

5:52pm: Kansas missed another chance to put this away.

5:47pm: Not good execution by Kansas on offense, and they have to punt. Jaylin Noel got a decent return, but it's coming back 

5:43pm: The fans are not happy about this one right now. Kansas has had too many mistakes and the play calling has been super conservative. There is a lot of tension in the stadium right now.

5:38pm: Kansas allowed a first down, but Lonnie Phelps had a huge sack to kill the drive, and Kansas has the ball back with 5:21 to go and a 3 point lead.

5:30pm: Bad news for Kansas all around. Hishaw tries to make a play and ends up fumbling. But even worse is that he is down injured, and the cart is out on the field.

5:25pm: Kansas didn't do anything on that drive, but a fumble by Iowa State on the punt gives the ball back to Kansas!

5:20pm: The interception was overturned, but a bad Dekkers pass fell incomplete on 3rd and 9 and then this happened:

5:15pm: Cobee Bryant picks off another pass at the KU 3 to stop the ISU drive. The play is under review.

5:12pm: Kansas missed on multiple chances to get off the field, and now ISU is driving at the Kansas 29. They converted a 4th and 7 to keep the drive going.

5:04pm: And we're on to the 4th quarter. Kansas still leads 14-11, but ISU is driving.

5:00pm: The Jayhawks were not successful in stopping the Cyclones, giving up 11 yards on 3rd and 9 from the 2.

4:56pm: Kansas takes the ball out of Jalon Daniels hands on that drive, and end up punting on the ISU 38. The ball was downed inside the 1.

4:49pm: Sevion Morrison, looking to give Kansas a spark, returns the kickoff to the KU 45.

4:44pm: After ISU methodically moved down the field to the Kansas 18, Kenny Logan knocked the ball out of Xavier Hutchinson's hands in the end zone. To say it was big would be an understatement.

4:37pm: Jayhawks had something going, but then stalled out at the ISU 45. There were plenty of reactions to the decision to punt:

4:33pm: And the second half has started. Sevion Morrison returned the kickoff and only made it to the 21.

4:11pm: It doesn't come back to bite them, as Kansas gets the sack from Craig Young to end the half.

4:10pm: A baffling sequence as Iowa State goes nowhere, but then is able to run down the clock to just 3 seconds.

4:06pm: A promising Kansas drive fizzles pretty quickly, ending up in a missed 50-yard field goal.

3:58pm: Talk about weird. Uncharacteristic penalties on Iowa State, but they are saved by a PI on Cobee Bryant. Then the snap was bobbled on the extra point but the holder was able to run it into the end zone.

3:49pm: Another week, another rushing TD for Jalon Daniels.

3:45pm: Big gain by Quentin Skinner was called back fo an ineligible player downfield, but a review overturned the penalty. Then Matt Campbell did it again:

3:39pm: Huge series by the defense! A huge tackle for loss, and a pick by Cobee Bryant on 3rd down puts the Jayhawks in the red zone.

3:34pm: Kansas does nothing on that drive. short run, missed pass and then the receiver getting legs tangled with the defender and the Jayhawks have to punt it right back.


3:31pm: Iowa State goes nowhere on their drive, and then a special teams penalty gives Kansas the ball at their own 48.

3:22pm: The ruling stands, and Kansas leads 7-0!

3:17pm: Pass interference moves the ball down for the Jayhawks, then a pitch to Neal on the option and some strong running by Daniel Hishaw gets the ball into the end zone. But it's under review.

3:14pm: First play of the quarter, Hishaw gets a big gain. Iowa State ended up with the ball, but he was ruled down. Play stands on the review.

3:07pm: The first quarter is over, and it was a weird one for sure. 

3:02pm: Kansas gets a very weird stop, with an assist from the goal post.

3:00pm: Iowa State converts after 3rd and 20 and 4th and 7. 

2:56pm: Fans not happy with the refs. Looked like Kansas might have had a perfect jump but they called offsides.

2:49pm:  Holding call on Casey stalls out the drive. Lots of people questioning that one though.

2:46pm: Big roar from the crowd as Jared Casey hauls in a big catch.

2:44pm: Kansas gets a stop with a huge play by Berryhill.

2:39pm: Kansas will kick off to start the game. Plus, some good recruits in the stands for today.

2:36pm: Audible boos as Iowa State enters the field.

2:35pm: The Jayhawk Jet is in the air! Kansas is in the tunnel waiting to enter the stadium. It's not as full as last week, but we are at at least 85% capacity.

2:22pm: Band is out on the field for the pregame show. Big roar from the crowd. Stadium is roughly 2/3 full.

2:12pm: The Jayhawks are wearing blue pants, blue jerseys and white helmets.

1:53pm: The band is ready

1:51pm: The crowd is still out enjoying the festivities, but enough have come in to make some serious noise already.

1:26pm: There are a LOT of extra people here to check out this game
