GAME DAY
-
I’m very thankful that the Big 12 is going forward with the season. Football and college basketball are my number 1 and 2 sources of entertainment.
But, I’m disheartened by the reports that Coach Miles plans to platoon MacVittie and Kendrick. Why oh why can’t KU recruit a quality starting QB? Most other programs have quality second and third string QBs who would be major upgrades at KU. I’m looking forward to an improved O-line and a quality running game. If we may add to that a QB who will make the simple passes to one of the several quality and experienced receivers we put on the field, our offense could be improved from last year. If our defense can’t successfully shut down the mean chickens, it will be a long year ahead. I’m greatly looking forward to tonight’s game and really hope for at least a two TD margin of victory.

I won’t be surprised when CC wins.
-
Meanwhile, K-State and ISU both get upset at home. Not a good look for the Big 12 so far.

THE SUN BELT HOWEVER
-
I’m an unabashed Fun Belt and Ragin Cajuns fan. Tailgating at Cajun Field is incredible.
I think we mostly use one QB. Les said last year at this time we’d play both as well and then MacVittie got placed in witness protection.

ESPN doesn’t show the OU game being televised anywhere. wth? I watched Rattler on QB1 and was hoping to get an early look at him. ESPN2 has South Ala v. Tulane at 6:30. I would sure think OU would draw more viewers.

I believe it’s PPV

@BShark did u see the cc locker room celebration smashing the Jayhawk, twice on fox sports 1?
? Daggers. I hope I live to see CHANGE!
-
I miss the days when we could clobber a team like UAB 72 to zip (on Band Day no less).

It is PPV and it’s $55 to watch the game.
@stoptheflop It all has to with how the TV distribution deal were altered because of the MAC and MWC not playing this fall. Those are the leagues along with the Sun Belt that historically get put into the evening slot on ESPN2 because it’s not a coveted spot due to other high profile games typically on the major networks.

Is there anything to gain by OU playing Miss St? Just a track meet. At the half, OU 359 yds. Miss St 37 yds.
-
Brandon Mac has a giant mask
-
this broadcast going to stick with the blowout baseball game?
-
@DanR Of course it is, it’s the White Sox!
-
@DanR it’s on fox sports 2, but hasn’t started, so probably be fox sports 1
-
Tait said it was gonna start around 9:20. Tired of hearing about the damn piñata!
-
When did they stop having kickoffs when listed? KU supposedly @ 9 but so far 13 minutes of ads and talking heads, same thing earlier for Clemson game.
-
I sat next to Les Miles at church once in Baton Rouge.
-
It isn’t as if they are waiting for the fan to find a seat…
-
MacVittie starting.
-
Gotta catch passes like that. KU isn’t good enough to give away scoring opportunities.

This is what happens when previous events run long.

It’s a game for OU to make any tweaks they need against an inferior opponent and it’s a paycheck game for MoSt.
-
Marable looks like he’s going to carve up the defense all night again this year.
-
DE, you have have containment! Stay home!
-
Yeah this is pretty bad. Just running all over the defense.
-
KU is going to be lucky to hold anyone under 30 this year.
-
I can’t believe the offense started with that same BS pass down the line of scrimmage for no gain.
-
Two 300 pound tubs of lard in the middle of the D line ain’t working

It’s a staple of every spread offense because it’s essentially a running play.
-
@stoptheflop That’s what that play is designed for, to get 5-6 yards.
-
Ouch
-
Just give the ball to pooka and pay me 500k to be the offensive coordinator
-
Well this game is making it easier to go to bed at my normal time.
-
Didn’t our guy cause that fumble by running into the ball carrier? Yikes
-

That was more on TK not getting up the field, but yes Parchment is the one who caused the fumble.
-
This is the same score that the Sox beat the Tigers by tonight!
-
Tough start. Everything working on offense for the chickens.
-
Lot of time left… argle bargle
-
Miles Kendrick in now
-
Where the f is pooka? Oh in to block
-

Pooka doesn’t have the durability to be given the ball every play.
-
Macvittie was doing fine; why in the hell change QBs?
-
And a horse collar, KU is killing themselves tonight
-
Watch the damn football!!!
-
Pathetic.
Glad I made a big batch of chili, so the night won’t be a total loss.
-
Even if fans were allowed, this is probably what the stands would look like at this point anyway.
-
Turner Gill quality. Good grief this is the worst of the worst
-
Really refs! How do you miss that facemask? Or are they giving Coastal some home cooking?
-
Ride the little Cajun
-
I don’t get too worked up about KU football. But as a graduate, I have the right to complain. This is unreal. How can this just keep happening year after year? Who’s to blame? Is the U so content being a blue blood in basketball that they’re content to just write off football as a loss every year? I rarely say ‘this is embarrassing’ because it’s not me out there playing but I’m feeling pretty embarrassed right now watching this. Unfortunately we’re used to losing to even the Coastal Carolina’s of the world, but to be dominated like this? Nah, this crap has to stop.
