Kansas beats Central Michigan 24-10 | The Wichita Eagle
Seven days after a 41-3 debacle at Duke, the Jayhawks responded with a victory that, for now, could be crucial for Weis’ immediate job security. The Jayhawks were hardly dominant or impressive — the defense carried the day in a slugfest — but they managed to survive the afternoon. Weis improved to 3-21 against Bowl Championship Subdivision teams at Kansas.

You are Kansas quarterback Montell Cozart. It’s third-and-9 at your own 40 early in the fourth quarter, game tied, your team desperately needing a big play in a so-far disappointing season. The snap comes and you look to your left. The safety chases tight end Ben Johnson to the flat. With your peripheral vision you can see Central Michigan’s strongside linebacker moving to the inside, meaning receiver Nick Harwell is being double-teamed on his curl route...

A first-half game plan by John Reagan designed to rebuild Cozart's confidence resulted in a 15-of-22 passing performance and allowed the quarterback to feel comfortable enough in the second half to try some throws with a higher degree of difficulty.

What we learned in the Big 12: Week 4 - ESPN
Kansas’ defense ought to keep it in games: At the beginning and the end of their 24-10 victory over Central Michigan, the Jayhawks produced some big plays offensively. But the defense was the reason Kansas ultimately prevailed, as its offense endured some shaky stretches over the second and third quarters. Led by linebackers Ben Heeney and Jake Love, the Kansas defense forced three turnovers, sacked Central Michigan QB Cooper Rush three times and limited the Chippewas to just 279 yards of offense. Wins haven’t been easy to come by at Kansas, but the defense should give the Jayhawks a chance to win again this season while the offense attempts to harness semblances of consistency.

WR Justin McCay, Kansas: His numbers aren't staggering. His impact was. The Jayhawks receiver changed the game with his 60-yard catch and run for a touchdown early in the fourth quarter. McCay finished with two receptions for 66 yards and the score but KU might not have defeated Central Michigan, 24-10, without McCay's big play.

NCAA College Football Recap - Indiana Hoosiers at Missouri Tigers - Sep 20, 2014 - CBSSports.com
Indiana entered the game as a double-digit underdog after losing 45-42 at Bowling Green last week, prompting coach Kevin Wilson to want his team to ''play with our hair on fire.'' The team gained 493 total yards but finished just 1 of 14 on third-down conversions.
The Hoosiers finished 2 of 2 on fourth-down conversions, though, and were helped by a pass interference penalty on Missouri's John Gibson during the final drive. Facing fourth-and-6 at his own 29-yard line, Sudfeld attempted to find Dominique Booth across the middle of the field, but Gibson wrapped his arms around the receiver before he could make the catch.
