Kansas’ defense stymies UCF to escape with 27-20 win
Kansas defense forced four goal-line stops and limited UCF to 375 total yards to overcome a 14-point deficit and win 27-20, improving to 2-1 in Big 12 play.
- Kansas Jayhawks rallied in Orlando on Saturday, Oct 4, 2025, erasing a 14-point UCF Knights lead to win 27-20.
- UCF's ground game posed Kansas's chief threat, with Myles Montgomery rushing 99 yards and scoring two touchdowns in the first half alongside Jaden Nixon.
- A late strip sack by Jalen Dye and fumble recovery by Trey Lathan at the 2 set up Kansas' go-ahead touchdown, and Kansas stopped UCF on three plays from the 1 with 1:47 left.
- Kansas now travels with momentum after defeating UCF Knights, while UCF dropped its second straight game and faces quarterback questions after Tayven Jackson left with an apparent arm injury.
- To blunt UCF's strengths, Kansas defense should send stunts and blitzes to exploit communication issues and disrupt Tayven Jackson, expected healthy, while preparing for play-action deep shots and backup Cam Fancher.
