LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) -- Jordan Webb threw three touchdown passes and Kansas rebounded from last week's humiliating loss to North Dakota State with a 28-25 upset of No. 15 Georgia Tech.

Capping a tumultuous eight days which included the abrupt retirement of their controversial athletic director, the Jayhawks (1-1) capitalized on a succession of mistakes by the heavily favored Yellow Jackets (1-1) on Saturday and posted their biggest win since the 2008 Orange Bowl.

Webb, who replaced last week's starter, was 18 for 29 for 179 yards and three TDs. Georgia Tech quarterback Joshua Nesbitt scored two touchdowns, giving him five in two games.
