Rice 25, Kansas 24: Chris Boswell kicked four field goals, including a 45-yarder with no time left, as the visiting Owls came back to upset the Jayhawks.

Boswell's kick was set up by Bryce Callahan's second interception of the game, on a third-and-8 Dayne Crist pass at the Rice 47 with 4:04 remaining.

Quarterback Taylor McHargue finished 23-of-35 for 236 yards while Charles Ross (94 yards) and Turner Petersen each rushed for a touchdown as Rice (1-1) snapped an 11-game road losing streak.

Tony Pierson rushed for 120 yards – his second straight 100-yard game – and Taylor Cox added 79 yards and a third-quarter touchdown that gave Kansas (1-1) a 24-13 lead.

Crist went 16-of-28 for 144 yards, including a 23-yard first-quarter touchdown pass to Jimmay Mundine.

McHargue completed three long passes to set up Ross' 2-yard touchdown run to get within 24-22, but couldn’t connect on the two-point conversion with 4:47 left.

GAME NOTEBOOK: Boswell tied the school record for career field goals made at 33. … Rice improved to 1-20 against Big 12 teams since the conference started in 1996 … Kansas forced three turnovers in the first quarter and has eight on the season after getting only 18 last year. … Kansas hosts TCU to open Big 12 play next week … The announced attendance at Memorial Stadium was 44,683.
