The Kansas Jayhawks have officially kicked off against West Virginia in a game that is taking place two hours earlier than it was originally scheduled. The Jayhawks received the ball first and quickly moved down the field before stalling in the red zone and having to settle for three points, which came after starting running back Dylan Edwards went down with an injury.
Edwards ran the ball on first-and-goal and was twisted as he was brought down for no gain. After the play was blown dead, Edwards lay on the ground in clear pain, holding his ankle, and upon replay, it looked like it he got it rolled up on by the West Virginia defender.
The game went to commercial break, while the training staff took a look at Edwards. When the game returned, he was seen walking gingerly off the field. Not long after getting to the sideline, Edwards was seen walking toward the locker room.
Dylan Edwards is heading back toward the locker room as KU takes a 3-0 lead with 10:05 left in the first quarter.#kufball https://t.co/Qjn0LBqdZZ

Isaiah Marshall's legs just became even more important in the Kansas run game
Isaiah Marshall has been quite the dual-threat quarterback for the Jayhawks this season, using his legs nearly as much as he throws the ball. Now with Edwards sidelined for the time being, Marshall's running ability will be even more important for Kansas against West Virginia.
Backup running back Khijohnn Cummings-Coleman is the backup for the Jayhawks and is already making an impact. After an interception by the Kansas defense, Marshall quickly got the offense going again, and Cummings-Coleman ran the ball in from the five-yard line for the score to put Kansas up 10-0 midway through the first quarter.
Marshall currently leads the team in rushing with 15 yards on two carries, followed Edwards following with 14 yards on three carries.
