LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) _ Zach Lujan threw for 293 yards and three touchdowns, Isaac Wallace ran for 118 yards and another score and South Dakota State spoiled the debut of Kansas coach David Beaty with a 41-38 victory over the Jayhawks on Saturday.
Jake Wieneke had eight catches for 160 yards and two touchdowns, and Brady Mengarelli also ran for a score as the Jackrabbits hung on after blowing most of a 31-7 first-half lead.
The Jayhawks got in range to attempt a tying field goal in the final seconds, but quarterback Montell Cozart fumbled the snap when he merely needed to spike it to stop the clock. The last few seconds ticked away and the Jackrabbits raced onto the field to celebrate.
Cozart threw for 291 yards and a touchdown, though he also had an interception and lost a fumble. Junior college transfer Ke’aun Kinner ran for 157 yards and two scores.
