BYU game
-
@FarmerJayhawk They scored 38 against Arkansas. Maybe Arkansas sucks so bad that BYU can have a bad offense and still score that many points, or maybe their offense doesn’t suck. But our defense is nothing to brag about. I think this one is a toss up.
-
Weather going be a factor if it come out. - suppose to have severe risk , heavy rain chances of Tornado pretty bad system coming in. - -Hopefully with some luck it will hold off until later, If raining going to change game plans for sure. - Actually think that would play in our favor, as they have had real trouble running the ball. - If they have to rely on passing they gonna be in trouble not that efficient 61 %
If they can’t throw that well rain playing a factor we should have upper hand. they only rushed for 77 yards against Arkansas 0.9 per attempt - We have a lot better balanced attack. rushing and passing lie I think it’s around 280 passing & 226 rushing somewhere in that vicinity. - - Should be able to run the ball against them. - I’m still gonna say KU 41 - -BYU 21 - -I just don’t think they are gonna put up over 30 points on us in this game. - they got 38 with the help a lot because of Arkansas mistakes.
Gonna disappoint fans if it’s raining hard, could be some delays - -hope not
-
@wissox they had less than 300 yards of offense and started 4 drives in Arkansas territory. It was a really, really weird game.
-
@FarmerJayhawk Right. Arkansas had 21 first downs, but was 2/13 on third downs. BYU’s longest throw from scrimmage was a trick play on a throw from a WR. 45 of BYU’s 77 rushing yards came on one carry (they ran the ball 31 times; if you take out that one long run they ran the ball for 1.06 yards per carry…yikes), Arkansas committed 14 (?!?) penalties for 125 yards…both teams had a return for a TD… I mean, the game was as weird as it gets, and if Arkansas hadn’t repeatedly shot themselves in the foot with penalties (and their one INT was REAL bad) they would’ve won by 2 scores. I wouldn’t let the Arkansas outcome scare you. If anything, I think it says more about Arkansas than BYU.
I think this game is similar to the one against Duke last year. BYU will hang around, but the better team will be clear.
-
@MoonwalkMafia Arkansas beat us last year memorably! Does sound like a weird one. Nothing I heard really convinces me we’re going to win easily however.
-
@wissox My point is Arkansas should have beaten BYU handily. I don’t foresee KU committing 14 penalties.
-
ESPN has KU as a 9.5 pt favorite. What are you folks stressing about? Many, many stories about BYU’s offense scoring only with smoke and mirrors. Looks like a KU cake walk on Saturday. 4-0 Baby! I always just rely on the odds makers; just like the Nevada game.
-
@wissox Not to be that guy, but we kinda beat ourselves in the Arkansas game. I won’t go into detail because I don’t want to embarrass anyone - but we all know.
-
@nuleafjhawk QB got hurt. Keep JD upright if you want to have a good season. Shades of Sparky. Program goes as the QB goes. First good QB on the roster since 2008.
Unless you count Jake Heaps. Lol

@dylans Daniels threw for over 500 in that game, not sure about the QB getting hurt. Of course most of us thought he should have been the guy to keep the game going instead of Bean on the last play.
-
KU 41, BYU 17. Hoping for no KU turnovers and limited penalties. Defense is at 100% for this game (no one sits a half for penalties).
-
Well think there is a decent chance we could have some delays in the game tomorrow. - Watching the local weather today from our Local station here in Topeka. ( WIBW ) they had us at a 40 % of rain this morning, now at 50 %
They said people need to make sure to monitor network, chance of all severe weather. primary risk large hail and damaging winds, but couldn’t rule out Tornado. - -they said they would be more concerned about the KU game as location was further East - One small sliver of hope is they said chances probably would be after 3 in the afternoon. - -Hopefully e can get it in without to much problems.
Love to have the Booth jumpin/ loud - - let BYU know you in the Big 12 now , sold out - – let them hear us, hope the guys can take it to them - - -Let’s get this W - ROK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Your guess is really close to mine - -I got - -KU - 41 - - -BYU - -21. - -As long as KU doesn’t make any stupid penalties , don’t beat yourself - -clean game I think we should beat these guys. they have not been able to run the ball at all yet this season. - They averaged 0.9 per attempt against Arkansas & quite honestly if KU defense plays well I just CAN’T see them putting up over 30 points in this game for sure. Just go out play our game.
Arkansas beat their selves -14 penalties - -they don’t want to get in a shootout against us, they got and ok offense but doesn’t compare to ours. - Decent defense but I still think we will be able to put up points. Hope the weather isn’t a big influence -hoping fo the best - -ROCK CHALK

The F-35s flew over my house earlier this afternoon. Anyone going to the game is going to get a real treat pre-game. Rattled the crap out of my windows and scared the bejeezus out of my dog.
-
Well now check my weather app and saw where they had dropped rain % from 50 %- -to 20 % tomorrow , maybe get the game played without to much problems
-
@FarmerJayhawk my son and I went to the KU home opener. I was shocked and impressed that there was a flyover! I don’t know what kind of jets they were - F35’s, F-18’s? I remember thinking what the F?
-
@dylans Daniels threw for over 500 in that game, not sure about the QB getting hurt. Of course most of us thought he should have been the guy to keep the game going instead of Bean on the last play.
If Liepold pulled a healthy JD for a crappy Bean jump pass to end that game he’s a terrible coach. Bean is barely passable as a backup. I really though JD was injured, but if what you say is correct… lol @KU football. What a joke.
Edit - The more I think about this the more disgusted I get. You mean to tell me Lance had a healthy Daniels and threw Bean out there for that silly, ill conceived play?!?

Let’s hope they figured out how to land those bad boys!
-
Anybody hear any updatse on the weather at game time ?
-
I sure like KU 's offense: 2 experienced QBs, 4 RBs with game experience and 5 receivers, including Neal with over 100 yds receiving in 3 games. How are you going to stop this BYU? Oh, and BYU’s offense is really just 4 guys, QB, RB, TE and WR. Not today BYU
-
@dylans IDK! I haven’t analyzed it that much. To me it looked like Lance being Lance with some trick play, it’s a meaningless bowl game so who cares anyway type of thing. I do see your point.

JB, I’m looking at the radar and it shows all the rain moving east away from Lawrence. So far, no weather moving toward Lawrence. Clear skies for the Jayhawks.

I was thinking the same thing! Lol. Maybe it’s just that same one cruising around on autopilot still.

Well that’s good to hear, I was kinda worried about weather don’t want it throwing any wrench’s in our offense. - Although usually that effects the passing more, so IF it id as balanced as we are wouldn’t hurt us a much as BYU -as long as w don’t get a severe case of fumbilitious lol. - -Good to know we might not have to worry about that. - Thank a lot. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Espn news has it live right now
-
On ESPN now
-
Nice sideline catch, too bad it was ruled out.
-
Wow, what a massive hit leading to the TD!
-
That hit could have been called back as targeting. Wow, but Bryant had the shoulder there too
-
Scoop n score
️
-
@stoptheflop I had the same thought.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Got enough wheat to wave for all the times we’re gonna need it?
-
Good start Defensively but very little resistance on that second drive. I think this may turn into a track meet real quick
-
️
-
Nice drive after giving up the long drive to them.
-
Nice drive. Now the defense must step up. The last BYU drive was way too easy
-
Happy about that hold!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Liked how Daniels very calmly just pointed in the direction of the hold as it was clear to him.
-
Them boys from byu sure wearing short pants.
-
BYU QB looks way better than reported and stats
-
Our defense looks like it will be tested today.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Not sure why the first half of this conversation is not showing but people were assuring me somehow BYUs 38 points against Arkansas were despite BYU having a bad offense. We discussed it for a while, and it’s appearing I won the argument!
-
The offense better score everytime they touch it from here on out
-
D on the field way to long
-
Where did the defensive players go that played for KU against Illinois?
-
I think we are losing today folks
-
Where’s the O?
-
Grimm must not be 100%
-
Haha Deion, losing by 3 scores. Sports media execs looking for the next flavor of the day to over promote.
