Both were absolutely outstanding. Wilson looked really good in practice, but he was amazing last night.

I can't say enough about Ryan Jastram. What a performance. He hit two FGs and won the game for us. I was very scared going into the season with him kicking FGs, but he made me forget those worries!

Very awesome and well-deserved on both counts! Chad looked like a man on the field out there, he was just flying all over Kansas's offense. Jastram came through in the clutch as well, we miss either of those and we probably don't come out on top (considering our offense couldn't do a whole lot). Great performances by both guys.
