Must win tomorrow!
-
-
Now 1-3. This season held such promise. Another 4th qtr collapse.
-
This was painful to watch
-
Ok, where were those boot camp photos? Time for hoops.
-
I’m okay with firing everyone at this point obviously AK was mastermind behind everything. We are so poorly coached
-
That little hitch was the difference getting that one out
-
There is the Season right there – How do you give up an eleven point lead with five -talk about grabbing a loss ou of the jaws of victory. You can’t come up with a excuse for this one
-
He wasn’t throwing to the endzone anyway…
-
Something has to change. Now.
Offense is not mediocre. It is poor.
-
OK, I’m not dreaming, right? Weren’t we up 11 with not much time to go?
-
One first down would have iced the game
-
Yes. They scored 15 points in the final 4-5 min
-
How mad do we be at the defense when they have played good enough to win every game but the last 2 drives here. Maybe we should just cancel the program and join the big east this absolute embarrassment.
-
I guess, given that stat, I should say the defense is not good either.
-
@AsadZ And we run to the short side of the field! Why do they always seem to do that?
-
It was awful. But. What are really going to do midseason here to right the ship?
-
3 blown 4th quarter leads. This isn’t just an offensive issue. The defense has been bad in clutch time too not being able to get a stop. The secondary was particularly bad today getting torched on multiple occasions.
-
It’s start over time.

Clint Normore available?
-
@bskeet everyone has said that for 3 weeks smh. We can not win D1 football games with JD at QB and Grimes calling plays
-
Like I’ve been saying y’all don’t get how many years this will set us back. Any decent player will hit the portal and we won’t get crap in recruiting
-
Who decided Grimes was the best OC we could hire?

sounds good, do ew get a win in the Big 21 this year ?
-
And will LL right the ship after this or will he bail at the end of the year?
-
There is no reaso n this team should be 1-3 with the talent we got— -PERIOD
-
@jayballer67 We get a win by surprising a team who had a short week and has multiple injuries at key positions. And also, flu is running through the team the night before.

Cmon, that was funny!
-
I’m done. See ya in basketball season
-
Lance will bail IMO based on “lack of fan support”. JD needs to become a RB or WR. Ballard to QB? Defense - how do you fix something that broken?
-
Well these types of preformance sure the hell isn’t goin to help funding for the stadium- - – -DAM , back to bottom feeder football
-
@patoh3 I am fine at this point if LL leaves like I said he is a fraud and AK was the genius
-
Avery Johnson may run for 300 yards on us
-
3 losses like this is tough to swallow. Could be 4-0
-
This looks like a David Beaty coached team sadly
-
JD had a chance to be a hero 3 times and fumbled it away all 3 times he is the MVP of the opponent
-
This is fan abuse. The playcalling is atrocious. We were up two scores late and had the ball on 3rd down and 3 near the 50 yd line and we threw the friggin’ ball. Even my 11-year-old son called out “it’s 2 down territory!”
I feel like this is the old horrible KU football program. We had our little run… coaches get paid millions in contract… time to tank.
I’d love to feel some optimism, but I feel like a rape victim continuing to be victimized.
-
@drgnslayr right it’s easier to know what we suck and lose by 49 than to piss away the talent on this team and not even make a bowl. Fire everyone and cancel the program
-
I feel sorry for players like Neal, Hishaw, Grimm. Bryant etc.
Their talent is being wasted by poor coaching and play calling.
-
Outscored 48-17 in the final 5 minutes of each half so far this season
-
@kjayhawks or 1,000
-
Well. This horrible start has made our opinions generally unanimous here #tryinghardtofindsilverlinings
-
@approxinfinity I’m usually pretty negative I’ll admit but what can we take from this disaster of a season. That we’ll have a new stadium that’s 1/4 full next season.
-
@kjayhawks yes. And they can charge four times as much admission to make up for the lack of fans that our coaches have alienated
-
This is nowhere near David Beaty era Kansas because KU was rarely competitive. A game like today against a conference opponent was a once a season deal.
This feels much more like the 2006 season KU went 6-6 and was about 5 plays away from being 10-2 that season. KU this season is about 3-4 plays away from being 4-0 right now. This is nothing like 10 years ago when we were begging for KU to just be competitive.
Because KU has had a 4th quarter lead in every game this season, Daniels and Grimes don’t deserve all of the blame, especially the last 2 games where KU had a lead with under 3 minutes left. That means that despite the flaws on offense this season, they’ve been good enough to give KU leads with under 3:00 left the last 2 games. The defense has to be better at getting key stops amd closing out games as well.
It sucks to not be able to close out games, but again, this is nowhere near Beaty era levels of bad and incompetent.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 This is worse. We have experienced success and gone woefully backwards. We will never again win a football game.
-
I concur although D has been put in very tough situations by offense.
When O got the ball around 3 min to go they could have iced the game with just one first down but they couldn’t do it giving ball back and momentum to WV

The defense was given an 11 point lead with 3:40 left in the game. That’s not a tough situation, but obviously the defense wasn’t up to the job today and deserve more of the blame than the offense for losing this one today.
-
@kjayhawks hey next Saturday we get to see Coach K play against Illinois, should be a moment to really reflect on Grimes vs K.
-
Also, Illinois beating Nebraska… that one may appear to be less of a bad loss for us on paper. Obviously, we gave it away.
-
I think we all can agree it was a team effort to lose this one. The offensive play calling has been absolutely garbage for much of the year. The defense couldn’t get stops when it was a must. But as I said the defense is allowed to screw up too with how ungodly bad the offense has been for much of this season. @Texas-Hawk-10 thats a very logical and fair assessment but I agree with @nuleafjhawk this is the worst feeling I have ever had as a ku fan losing by 40 to a more experienced and better team is one thing. Having 30 returning seniors from a 9-4 team up against one of the easiest schedules in CFB. This is unacceptable and changes need to be made
