Emergency services were required due to the -4 degrees Fahrenheit temperature at kickoff, with a wind chill of -20 degrees, and the temperature dropping to -9 degrees by the end of the game. The University of Kansas Health System also reported treating numerous patients for weather-related problems, including frostbite and exposure, amid the deep freeze in the Kansas City metro area.
