The euphoria was short-lived. The public-address announcer got in their ears:

KU students rush the field. Are told by the PA to go back “for the respect of this program.”

Wow. #kufball fans rush the field, and PA guy reprimands. “This is a new era in Kansas football, an era in which you should expect to win.”

The verbal lashing from the PA announcer seems to have worked. Student section returning to their seats, heading to exits. Posts safe.
