Open as a 18 1/2 point dog to Texas



  • Is Lawrence Arnold playing?



  • @Crimsonorblue22 he has one catch for 5 yds



  • @DanR Yes, I forget where I was that night, a wedding I think so I missed all of it. This today is certainly more interesting.



  • might as well go for it, but don’t run that play again



  • need a foot and line up in the shotgun. I understand it, but I’ll never like it



  • Yep, 4th and 1, let’s try it up the middle again



  • Dumb. Should have punted.



  • shouldve run a damn QB sneak



  • Bean tried to pull the handoff and caused the fumble.



  • Should have ran a better play. Option was working for us and we went away from that with deep balls and runs up the middle. Just shooting ourselves in the foot



  • In the past, Bean has shaken of dumb bonehead stuff, so hopefully he can go back out there and get some points



  • Hishaw has to fight for every handoff, good grief

    That was a read option play, Bean tried pulling it too late.



  • Hishaw at fault? He wouldn’t have made it, unless he could’ve over powered them. He’s done it before. Should’ve taken a longer TO



  • O line getting tired but not out there long

    That 4th down play was 100% on Bean, made a bad read and tried to pull it too late and basically ripped it out of Hishaw’s hands.



  • Turning into a rout after the ill advised 4th and short call.



  • Bean has had one good decision today and was throwing to a wide open Wilson. The rest has been costly



  • Where has Neal been this half?



  • I’m surprisedd texas isn’t running it every play



  • Have to hold Texas to a FG here to have any shot at winning.



  • Disappointing game… KU is SOOOO much better with Daniels at QB



  • That feels like game. Don’t think KU can get three scores without some crazy stuff happening.



  • Hilariously awful game from bean. That one play where he could’ve just ran upward for the first down and pushed it to the side sticks with me



  • @rcjhdraft Glad you find humor in it. We don’t



  • Bean sucks man



  • Maybe Bean didn’t take many snaps in practice all week. He really has been bad.



  • I’ll watch this to the bitter ugly end, but there’s a lot of time left for this to get even worse.



  • Congrats to Central Florida for their impending first B12 win against a real Big 12 opponent Baylor. BYU got their first win, but against a fellow interloper Cincy last night. By the way apparently Central Florida gets irked being called that so henceforth on these pages, although it’s easier to type UCF, they will be Central Florida.



  • Ya I feel like Texas is just trying to run up the score at point. They’re averaging like 9 yards a rush why pass the ball up 2 scores late?



  • I still don’t think KU wins even if Daniels plays because our defense still has a long ways to go after playing their first really good team this year. I still think best case scenario is probably 8 wins, but that’s with a healthy Daniels which is a question mark. With Bean, getting to another bowl game will be an accomplishment.



  • Why does KU still have the starters in at this point? KU isn’t winning at this point and we already know how badly an injury can ruin a game/season. No need to risk Neal, Hishaw, or any other starter getting hurt.

    Trying to get ewers some post season awards. Texas was just better even with a below average performance.

    0 third down conversions makes it tough for bothe the offense and the defense.



  • I think Baylor won



  • Baylor completes its biggest comeback ever after UCF’s FG falls short



  • @dylans LOL, I jinxed em, Baylor came back and beat them!



  • I know Jason Daniels is the best QB KU has, but it’s frustrating for me as a fan to see him prep all week with first string and then not play. Shouldn’t Bean be getting equal reps at this point?



  • @Gorilla72 supposedly he aggravated his back during warms is what I’m hearing. Just unfortunate all around, Bean is capable but that was not his best game. I agree with @Texas-Hawk-10 we probably don’t win with JD but I bet we would’ve took the lead a time or two and ultimately lose by 10-14. The game felt closer than the final for much of it. The defense just got gassed late, Texas had over double the number of offensive plays as us. Jason even on that last 4th down could’ve easily ran and got it. Play calling wasn’t good imo either but it probably changes with JD in there.



  • Walk thru’s at the hotel. Rough?



  • JD has a weak back. Will he play 2+ games the remainder of 2923?

    If he does, I’m going to be long gone. 😛



  • I’m sure glad I had the new Craig Johnson novel to distract me during the 4th Q. I’m still trying to find a single positive thing from that game.



  • Lance gonna need to find a QB in the transfer portal maybe.



  • The main thing after this game is, we got to keep fans engaged in our football team, we got to keep the students engaged.

    It’s ONE game on the Schedule, just like if would be if we won , it’s ONE game either way - - -like has been mentioned as poor as the offense was like has been mentioned we were within striking distance through three quarters

    • -They need to regroup and really focus on Saturday. We were playing on house money anyways in this Texas game, I bet you couldn’t find 5 guys in here that actually thought we would win this game. -Yet here is the thing if Students waver - - If the fans waver and now start to disappear for upcoming games - - -that’s not a fan - -well ya it’s a closet fan, - -you know what a closet fan is - -a person who puffs that chest out, thumps that chest when it’s all good. Yet when things go bad -it’s like OH NO they aren’t my team. . It just goes to show actually how far this team HAS COME… - - It’s went from being happy with one or two wins trying to stay close to now we are disappointed when we lose or play poor. Before we lose and play poor the mentality was eh TYPICAL GAME & it’s good to feel that way, just means we got interest in our football program again. - -Yet here is the thing, if fans start not showing, quit showing up and supporting the team – if students don’t show - - Lance is already upset with Students leaving, it’s also Lance and the Coach from Washington State are considered serious contenders for the Michigan St job.

    If fans walk away , don’t show support-- -if students don’t start sticking around longer Lance very well might say Screw and we will return back to a warm pile of Dod Doo and may have one game win Seasons - -THAT’S ONE THING - - -WE DON’T WANT

    Lance’s name will be connected to pretty much every good P5 job that’s available until he either retires or leaves.

    It may sound crazy considering the amount of yards and point given up, but the defensive scheme and execution was actually good especially the first 3 quarters. That was the blueprint to beat Texas for the Kansas squad but the offense just fell apart. A few sustained drives in the first half from the offense would have COMPLETELY changed that game.



  • Did anybody see the pic of JD at the stadium walking in w/a very heavy book bag on his back? Puzzling!
