RUTGERS: TALK TO ME
-
This was starting to look like one of those high school games with a “mercy rule” where they just let the clock run. lol
-
When was the last time you heard the Rock Chalk chant inside Memorial Stadium?
-
That was a legitimate ass whoopin KU put on Rutgers today! This team will pull an upset or two in Big 12 play this year.
-
Would love to see a post-game interview after a win in front of a full Memorial Stadium. Baby steps, though…
-
Good chat guys. I’m off on vacation next week at Glacier Park in Montana…hope I can get updates on the Baylor game.
Till then, Rock Chalk !
-
@nwhawkfan sounds wonderful, enjoy!
-
I was waiting to see how KU looked today before deciding on whether or not to go the Baylor game next week. I think I’ll be buying a ticket and making the drive up to Waco next Saturday.
-
-
@BShark #dead lmao!!!
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Have a great time!
-
-
Whoever runs that account is on fire right now.
-
Reesing bringing us the good mojo today! Love his jump and pump, mizzoui win repeat!
-
Hope he stays out of trouble!
-
400 yards rushing at 8.3 yards for carry, 7 guys averaged more than 4.3 YPC, that’ll do.
-
KU scored double digit points in every quarter today. Probably first time in at least a decade for that.
-
-
Good luck after a B12 win lol
-
Convincing win, but Beaty isn’t out of the woods yet. If he were 3-0, his job would be much safer. That bad loss will continue to haunt him this year.
-
@justanotherfan that’s my deal, as happy as I am today it’s even more evident that Nicholls shouldn’t have beat us. Tulane spanked them last week.
-
@kjayhawks Nicholls is legitimately the best of KU’s non conference opponents and that was something people were saying even before the season started.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 - And don’t forget, Pooka was out. Probably a different game with him playing?
-
@Gorilla72 yes! I hope he continues to play!
-
Baylor and KSU are not good at the football.
-
@BShark Baylor playing now? What channel?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 FSN
-
@Crimsonorblue22 getting it put to them by Duke’s backup QB
-
Off to the Kansas state fair, proudly wearing my KU fb tshirt. New Charlie hustle one, pretty nice.
️
-
Dang if we beat faylor, do we keep Beaty?
-
Lol the Over/Under for the Houston and TTU game was only 68
-
Baylor doesn’t look good at all, so maybe we have a chance lol
-
@Crimsonorblue22 It’ll help his chances, but doesn’t guarantee anything.
-
The Rutgers box score makes for some fun reading. How about Deron Thompson’s second half effort: 3 rushes, 70 yds. and 1 TD. Nice. Very Nice. 400 yds. rushing as a team. Six running backs and 3 QBs carrying the rock.
-
@BShark Which is why those are winnable games. I’d feel much better about the Baylor, Tech, and KSU games if any of them were in Lawrence, but the win at Central Michigan finally got the monkey off the back of the program and those road games aren’t automatic losses now.
-
Passing 15/25 for 144 yds. and 1 TD. I think the Air Raid offense has left the stadium.
-
@wissox RUH ROH
-
The official attendance was just over 28,000 people. I’m actually surprised more folks didn’t come for Ressing alone. I had free tickets available just couldn’t make the trip today. I figured it was over 30,000 watching the game. Keep competing and those numbers will continue to rise.

I think we have a shot - -just have to contain their receivers , I don’t feel their QB’S are quite as well as in the past
-
So does Ash get fired Monday morning? Lol
-
@kjayhawks This article, courtesy of a poster on another board, tells why he won’t…though the article makes it clear why he should be, at least according to them: https://www.nj.com/rutgersfootball/index.ssf/2018/09/rutgers-kansas_politis_5_observations.html
(pretty poor picture showing attendance near the end of the article)
-
@ICThawk Hard to argue any of that, they are in an very similar situation we were going into last year.
-
Rutgers is this season’s version of last year’s Kansas.
-
@JayHawkFanToo No they’re not, Rutgers has won a game this season. Other than that, they’re bad.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Kansas won 1 game last year
-
I want to believe KU is a bit better, but I need to see it in league play tbh. CMU and Rutgers are both extremely bad with terrible QB play.
-
@BShark The only team KU held under 30 points last year was SEMO. KU has yet to allow a team to reach 30 points. I’m not claiming this team is good, but they are a better team than last year, even if it’s just by a little bit. If you can’t see that now, I don’t think anything KU does in B12 play will change you opinion either.
-
@JayHawkFanToo Last time Kansas won and Wisconsin lost on the same day? I just might look that up!
-
Last time KU won and Wisconsin lost on the same day was 2009. 5-0 KU beat ISU, alas, it was their last win of the year, an awful 0-7 finish. Wiscy went to the horseshoe and got beat soundly on Oct. 10 of that year. So this is an odd sort of day for sure.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 The biggest difference I see this year is the defense is everywhere and playing hard. TO’s are weird; how could the Rutgers freshman QB just throw it straight to Torneden and Lee. The fumbles were caused by our defense. We’ve really turned the corner on defense.
The second difference is the running backs are running much harder; after first contact they are keeping it going. Last year, the backs seemed to go down every time on first contact. Baylor is very beatable, but we have to keep running the ball hard. Our QB play is still very weak. We’ve got to complete more mid-range passes. How great would a Big 12 road victory be for our program? It’ll take our best effort yet and Pooka will be no surprise to Baylor.
-
@stoptheflop no credit to O line?
