Velton Gardner - No room to run in season opener Gardner rushed for 21 yards on 19 carries while also nabbing a two-yard pass in Friday's 17-14 win over South Dakota. Impact Gardner received the bulk of the work in the rushing game, but his 1.1 yards per carry is nothing to get excited about. It's also worth noting that new quarterback Jason Bean recorded 15 carries for 54 yards in the run-game. Pairing the QB's knack for running the ball with inconsistent offensive line play at Kansas, it could be a tough year for Gardner's fantasy production. Kansas has a tough match-up at Coastal Carolina next week.
