No. 22 Jayhawks head to Iowa State looking for consecutive Big 12 wins for first time since 2008
Kansas just knocked off its highest-ranked opponent in 15 years, became bowl-eligible a second straight year for only the second time in program history and is in a fifth AP Top 25 over two seasons after not appearing in the rankings since 2009. 22 Jayhawks would add another item to third-year coach Lance Leipold’s resume if they beat Iowa State on the road Saturday night. It would mark the first time they’ve won consecutive Big 12 games since 2008. The Cyclones already have faced three of the top five rushing quarterbacks in the Big 12 in Cincinnati’s Emory Jones, TCU’s Chandler Morris and Oklahoma’s Dillon Gabriel. “The only thing that’s beneficial is we’ve played some mobile quarterbacks already this year,” Campbell said, “and you’ve got to hang your hat on some of that.” JAYHAWKS’ 1-2 PUNCH Kansas’ Devin Neal and Daniel Hishaw are the top running back tandem in the Power Five with a combined 1,259 yards.
