Kansas looks to remain lone unbeaten in Big 12 at Colorado

Oct 20, 2007 - 10:36 AM No. 15 Kansas (6-0) at Colorado (4-3) 5:30 pm EDT

BOULDER, Colorado (Ticker) -- Kansas coach Mark Mangino would like to enjoy his time atop the Big 12 Conference.

Mangino's 15th-ranked Jayhawks try to remain the lone unbeaten team in the conference when they visit Big 12 North Division rival Colorado on Saturday.

Kansas (6-0, 2-0 Big 12 North) manhandled visiting Baylor last week, 58-10, to easily remain undefeated on the campaign.

Todd Reesing threw a pair of touchdowns and Jake Sharp ran for 110 yards and a score for the Jayhawks, who limited the Bears to 48 yards on 19 carries.

Kansas ranks second nationally in scoring defense, limiting opponents to 9.5 points per game, and is fourth in total defense, holding teams to 240 yards per contest. The Jayhawks, who forced five turnovers in the romp, also are sixth nationally in turnover margin (plus-1.5).

Colorado (4-3, 2-1 North) absorbed its first conference loss with a 47-20 setback to Kansas State last weekend.

Cody Hawkins - son of coach Dan Hawkins - tossed three interceptions for the Buffaloes, who were paced by Hugh Charles' career-best 171 yards and a touchdown.

Kansas beat Colorado in Boulder last year, 20-15. The Buffaloes won the last meeting here, a 44-13 rout in 2005, when they won the North title.
