Thinking positively at least we aren’t Texas. This is what year 21 of them supposedly being back. Down 20-3 with one of, if not the most expensive roster in CFB. I’m sure Steve is about done there.
This didn't age too well.
What's there to hate about Ohio State, other than they are good at football?
Texas, yea.
Wow I spoke too soon on Texas entered the 4th quarter down 23-3 but put up 21 unanswered in the final quarter to win. Wow I hate both teams with a passion so at least one of them lost.

@kjayhawks2.0 I'm through with football and I'll admit that I whine a lot during basketball season but a bad BB season for us is better than most teams best season. Ever.
Some thoughts from far away. I just spent a dream vacation/retirement trip to Switzerland and had to come home today, really yesterday. So at 3 AM Geneva time, we're walking to the airport since shuttle buses weren't running yet and I'm 'watching' KU play on my ESPN app. Semi encouraging first half disappeared with a 2nd half that looked like last years version of the game. Watching the game on the live updates wasn't very encouraging as turnovers and penalties seemed to derail their chances.
There seemed to be a lot of backlash against KU using the border war in their get hyped for the game stuff. A lot of 'did KU really use the civil war' to hype themselves up? A lot of people seemed to think we just kind of made that up out of the blue, not at all having any clue of the kind of rivalry this is. Of course the idiotic Missouri coach mouthed off after the game and I really dislike the guy now for it. Lance really might need to adjust his coaching goals here to beating misery. When Lovie Smith was hired to coach the Bears he said "I'm here to beat the Packers". And he did, at least for a few years and then it went south for him. I want Lance to say the same. "I'm here to beat Missouri". Of course he's failed at that so far and he might be on his way to being too late to save his job. Saddens me to say because I had high hopes after his promising start here.
KU soccer improves to 6-2. League play starts next week.

That game went about as expected. The good news is our season is far from over. If Marshall can start playing like a serviceable starter I think we have a shot at a bowl game.
The OLine isn't good enough that a serviceable QB wins a lot of games. Marshall appears better suited as a RB at this point, but the OLine is bad enough that the offense needs Marshall's running ability to be able to create enough time to get a pass off.
@nuleafjhawk I think our chance are better to succeed in volleyball and baseball personally
@kjayhawks2.0 right. But our chances are a helluva lot better in basketball than football.
