Football Falls at Kansas in Season Opener

LAWRENCE, Kan. – Wagner football opened the 2025 season on the road against Big 12 opponent Kansas, falling 46-7 on Friday night at David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium.

The Jayhawks struck quickly, capitalizing on short fields to take a 14-0 lead after the first quarter. 

Kansas extended its advantage in the second quarter tacking on two more touchdowns, building a 29-0 cushion with 5:24 left in the half. Wagner responded late in the half when sophomore Jack Stevens hit junior Jeremiah Colclough in stride for a 45-yard touchdown, capping an eight-play, 75-yard drive. With :36 seconds left in the half and the Jayhawks on Wagner's 9-yard line, senior Jayden Brown came up with an interception in the endzone to close the first half as Wagner trailed 29-7.
The Jayhawks added to their lead early in the third with a 62-yard touchdown reception to make it 36-7. Kansas added a 27-yard field goal and a one-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter sealed the final margin at 46-7.

Wagner was limited to 143 yards of total offense (53 rushing, 90 passing) compared to Kansas' 631.


Stevens finished 13-of-20 for 90 yards and one touchdown, with Colclough's 45-yard score standing as the Seahawks' longest play of the night.


Graduate student Andre Hines Jr. paced the ground attack with 25 rushing yards on eight carries.


Defensively, senior Sam Martin led Wagner with seven tackles, while junior Freddie Camp added six and Brown added two tackles along with his interception
