As Joe Dineen promised, the Jayhawks shook hands with the Sooners. #KUfball
KU will receive the opening kickoff at No. 6 OU.

It's Pooka Williams with a 10-yard rush to open the night for KU. #KUfball

Bender-to-Booker connection gets KU in 3rd & 1 at own 44.
Dom Williams takes off for 13 yards to extend the drive. #KUfball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 12:38:31 AM
KU emptied the backfield on 3rd & 10 and when Bender tried to take off OU stuffed him at line of scrimmage.
32 yards and 2 1st downs for KU on its first series before a punt. #KUfball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 12:41:17 AM
Kyler Murray ranks 1st nationally in pass efficiency rating (212.9), yards/pass attempt (12.3), and yards/completion (17.4).

by SJacksonLJW 11/18/2018 12:46:11 AM
Pretty impressive form from Lipscomb to level Lamb. Not easy to do in space. Liscomb got to him before Lamb could take off. #KUfball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 12:46:29 AM
With OU on verges of TD drive, Mike Lee emerges from a pile with the loose ball after a fumble. Lee also caused it with a strip.
#KUfball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 12:51:14 AM
What a play by Mike Lee, seconds after he whiffed on a tackle that set up that first and goal for OU. #KUfball

by Matt Tait via twitter 11/18/2018 12:51:41 AM
OU crowd boos as play resumes without a review overturning the Sooners' fumble. #KUfball
Jayhawks get 5 yards on 1st down from Herbert.

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 12:53:57 AM
Wow. Dom Williams getting involved regularly early on and he already has 32 yards on 4 carries. #KUfball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 12:55:44 AM
Pooka Williams breakaway speed is alarming in the open field.
Got to be tough for defenders, too, as they've seen 3 different KU RBs involved early.
Pooka just ran for 39 yards. #KUfball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 12:57:10 AM
10 KU running plays so far and 3 passing plays.
86 rushing yards. 16 passing yards.
#KUfball
KU on verge of red zone on 2nd series.

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 12:58:41 AM
Wow. Pooka Williams breaks a tackle in the backfield and explodes for a 23-yard rushing TD.
Jayhawks lead 7-0 at No. 6 Oklahoma. #KUfball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 1:00:53 AM
Pooka brought the moves, but the #KUfball ground game as a whole dominated that drive. Smashed it straight ahead at the OU defense over and over until they wound up in the end zone. 7-0, KU.

by Matt Tait via twitter 11/18/2018 1:02:48 AM
Pooka Williams gives #kufball an early lead with a 23-yard touchdown run. t.co

Kyler Murray had a man open deep but overthrows him. #KUfball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 1:05:36 AM
Kyler Murray too tricky/fast in open field. Takes it in for a 7-yard TD.
A blown pass coverage earlier in the drive led to a 40-yard pass down the right side to Morris.
KU 7, OU 7.
1:19 1Q. #KUfball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 1:09:08 AM
13 runs for 117 yards in 1Q a huge part of this great start for KU.
Also Mike Lee robbing Kennedy Brooks of the ball on 1st & G.
#KUfball 7, OU 7 entering 2Q https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DsP1BaeU0AAsR7J.jpg

Herbert 2-yard run on 3rd & 2 opens 2Q for KU, extending drive with a 1st down. #KUfball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 1:16:04 AM
Bender easy throw to Pooka in right flat picks up 14 yards. #KUfball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 1:18:01 AM
Actually may be ruled a lateral and a rush. #KUFball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 1:18:28 AM
Our defense looks worse than a practice squad. Will be good to clean house

by David Kemp 11/18/2018 1:19:32 AM
Does Beaty get his job back if we win?

by PullnPray 11/18/2018 1:19:33 AM
3rd & 11 Bender pass to Booker only gets 6 yards.
But KU regains lead 10-7 on 45-yard FG by Oklahoma native Gabriel Rui. #KUfball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 1:21:04 AM
Oklahoma is 75-27-6 (.722) all-time against Kansas and has won 13 straight
in the series. It is OU’s longest active winning streak against an opponent.

by SJacksonLJW 11/18/2018 1:22:23 AM
OU has won 15 straight November games (last loss on Nov. 8, 2014). Since
the start of the 2000 season, the Sooners are 59-11 (.843) in the month.

by SJacksonLJW 11/18/2018 1:23:00 AM
So Tre Brown is sort of filthy in the open field.
33-yard kickoff return after bobbling the catch initially. #KUfball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 1:24:11 AM
In a word no! Beaty couldn’t save his job because it is only the 2nd quarter

by David Kemp 11/18/2018 1:24:30 AM
@SJackson: I'm sure a lot of teams' longest active winning streaks are against Kansas. Kansas hasn't done a whole lot of winning over the last decade

by Travis 11/18/2018 1:25:19 AM
Kyler Murray may not ever have an easier TD throw in his life.
Carson Meier wide open in the end zone for 20-yard score.
Sooners back on top. #KUfball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 1:29:00 AM
OU's 3rd possession goes 65 yards in 7 plays.
Sooners up 14-10.
#kufball 9:03 2Q

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 1:30:37 AM
Bowen’s defense is hapless. 3 man rush getting picked apart

by David Kemp 11/18/2018 1:30:54 AM
Miles can’t start soon enough

by David Kemp 11/18/2018 1:31:55 AM
How come we can’t get plays called!

by David Kemp 11/18/2018 1:37:31 AM
Personal foul and 15-yard penalty on KU OL Antione Frazier.
Makes it 2nd & 22. #KUfball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 1:39:47 AM
Bender spots Kerr Johnson breaking free across the middle on 3rd and 13 and hits him for 25 yards. #KUfball
