Hate Missouri Week. Game chat here!
-
JD time…we hope
-
Well for better or worse this will be decided in regulation
-
This is where I wish our running game was working to run some clock on this drive on the way to scoring with 1 second left.
-
Omg
-
Hishaw is worthless in the backfield
-
Henderson had it
-
Oh crap…
-
Gosh darn it
-
Hishaw has been underwhelming so far this year.
-
Done now
-
Shouldn’t we have gone for it? I know they likely would’ve have scored again if we didn’t make it. But that was our only chance unless we get a TO. That would b a miracle
-
@Crimsonorblue22 yeah not going for it seemed pretty wussy.
-
That drop in retrospect cost us this game.
-
I honestly have zero idea why you don’t going with how this defense has played from the second quarter on.
-
Well, it was much closer than I thought it would be.
-
Damn it this one hurts
-
Wollp. I take full blame. Kansas looked like dog ass every minute i watched.
-
I swear I hope we destroy their basketball team because what happened last year was unacceptable.
-
+/- in the final 2 minutes is epically bad
-
I just feel sick like I did after 6 of our 7 losses last season
-
Even if you don’t get it, a field goal doesn’t hurt you in that situation. Zero reason to punt. Put your trust in your best unit
-
No protection
-
@patoh3 Unfortunately, he’s not really a lead back. Doesn’t have close to the speed or shiftiness that Neal had…
-
Pretty sure Mizzou only punted one time in the game.
-
Sometimes it seems like we snatch losses from the jaws of victory.
-
@bskeet having their kicker out may have benefited them
-
That was fun
-
@kjayhawks We absolutely have done that!
-
This team is over reliant on Jalen Daniels.
-
Missouri has lost two reviews today. Why are they getting another?
-
Don’t you know? Home team gets as many as they want.
-
Silly to not throw it 10 yards out of bounds for a 6th guy. JD was solid today but 2 turnovers were very costly
-
Mizzou has almost 600 yards on offense - balanced between run and pass. Game really wasn’t as close as the score indicated. Having said that, but for the dropped pass, the Hawks had a chance to steal one…
-
@DCHawker ya the defense is as hot butter much of the day. We fought and gave ourselves a good chance for 3.5 quarters just got beat by a better team. We need to spend this off week working in tackling
-
MO received 2 more points on the safety that should not have happened.
-
Take a weak off, regroup, West Virginia comes calling in two weeks. Get the record to 2-1…please.
-
@wissox 3-1?
-
Bad weekend, chiefs and KU!
-
Some thoughts I will get off my chest:
- Our fourth quarter demons are still alive and well.
- Our fourth down defense demons are as strong as ever
- We will never have a truly great season if we can’t win the occasional close game
- We came in with a better game-plan than misery which is why we stayed in the game
- That safety (a play in which the refs allowed misery to cheat) was a horrendous missed call. I don’t think we deserved the win anyways but missing a call on a play that impactful is unacceptable.
- Even worse, was the decision to punt on 4th and 7. In what world did we have a better chance of stopping the misery offense we had not stopped all game long than we did of converting on a 4th and 7. Leipold and the staff deserve a lot of leeway for what they’ve done for our program, but that was one of the worst coaching decisions I have ever seen. Maybe we need to hire an assistant coach whose job it is to analyze 3rd and 4th down decisions.
- The difference in athleticism was on display in this game.
- That misery quarterback is elite. Every single throw he made was perfect. Penn State was stupid for not starting him over Drew Allar, who is mediocre. edit:
- We have to be able to hang onto a lead.
-
Go Army.

@wissox 3-1?
Oh yes, we’re already 2-1
Yeah. Good to keep it in perspective.
Would never want a home loss, but hard not to wish we had gone from 1-1 to 2-1 this time rather than going from 2-0 to 2-1.
-
I have to agree, I think Lance electing to kick the ball on fourth and seven was the first time have to question his decision .What the hell are w doing kicking the ball on fourth and seven when we haven’t stopped Missouri all day and yet we punt- - – -terrible call.
I think this game showed us our defense has a lot of work to do , we are a very average team if our RB’S can’t do any better sheesh…
-
@Jhawk69 this guy didn’t even start last week, the other qb started and got hurt. They were gonna switch at half. Dinky couldn’t decide on a starter.
-
This game was lost in 2nd quarter when MO pretty much held the ball
-
@Crimsonorblue22 That is on the misery coaching staff for not properly evaluating their QB room. He is elite and should have been named the starter from the get-go.
-
The punt call was absolutely indefensible. You haven’t gotten a stop all day and you give them the ball back with under 3 minutes left? That was so damn ridiculous, but has unfortunately become a pattern under Leipold. His has always been way too conservative in his game management and that absolutely comes from his first head coaching job being at a powerhouse program where that mindset was the right mentality most of the time. He has never developed a risk taking approach and that has been on display over his few years here. The decision in the 3rd quarter to kick a FG instead of going for it on the road isn’t an aggressive mindset, it’s a conservative one that has now cost KU several games.over the years.
Also with the defense, why were our corners playing so deep even in short yardage situations? That allowed Missouri to dink and dunk and control the clock all game long.
Even if KU goes 10-2, wins the Big 12 and makes the playoffs, if that second loss is to KSU, this season is still going to feel like a disappointment since we haven’t beaten either team since 2008 when I was still a student at KU.
-
It hurts because it’s been the simplest of plays that have killed the last few minutes of half’s today and last season. Catch the football, hold on to the football, throw the football to your team and tackle the guy that’s right in front of you. We literally could be 15-1 it the last 16 games by making simple plays that D1 power 4 guys make routinely every single week. I’m glad we have the off week to refocus but WV at home is a must win for bowl eligibility
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Yeah, I was not too keen on the punt. Ironically their lack of a kicker may have hurt us because several times (I think) they went for it on 4th when they would have kicked a FG instead and those plays kept drives alive instead of resulting in only 3 points on made FGs.
-
@wissox ya that 4th and 10 from the 28 prob isn’t even attempted with their kicker available. A few others are borderline.
