Kansas trailed Texas 24-7 when the Longhorns punted with seven minutes remaining. But the Jayhawks weren’t out of life. A touchdown and field goal around a recovered onside kick made the Longhorns sweat out a 24-17 victory.
The Longhorns will play in the Big 12 championship game for the first time since 2009, when they defeated Nebraska 13-12 on a last-play field goal. Remember, there was no title game between 2011-2016.
The Jayhawks will move ahead with the 40th coach in school history, Les Miles, who was introduced last Sunday.
