Shouldnt we have been playing to other side of field to set up the lefty?
-
@approxinfinity we’ll find out. he’s on the other hash
-
YAHTZEE !!!
-
Tear them down, kids.
-
Kid looks like he’s ill
good job!
-
@DanR No, save the goalposts for K-STATE
-
@nwhawkfan I’ll be there to help for KState!
What a great game.
-
What A GAME, one crazy ending.
-
Time to break out the good stuff, fellas !
Damnedest finish I’ve seen in a while.
-
Sweet victory. Finally. RC
-
After what happened in the Big 12 today, every one of our last four games now seem winnable.
-
Hell yes!
-
I was going to stay up late to watch World Cup rugby, but that last play looked close enough.

KSU will be super tough but OU ran all over them, they just had no defense. You gotta credit our defense without one of the key guys in Bryce. How about Carter Stanley 725 yards, 7 touchdowns and 1 pick in the last 2 weeks. Easily the best 2 game stretch since Ressing. I’m ready for next now, it wont be easy tho. Gonna be a war!!
-
We are bowl eligible if Dearmon is the OC all year. CHANGE. MY. MIND.
-
@BShark Just need three more wins !
-
@BShark we are probably bowl eligible right now with Dearmon and fair officials last week.
-
Will be an up hill battle to get there this late in the year and minimal room for error. Either way I’m very proud of this team and how they have battled every second.
-
How pleasant. Almost November and we’re still talking KU football ! (In a good way.)
Nite all !
-
Harbaugh is finally gonna get a top 10 win over Notre Dame who really shouldn’t be in the top 10 lol.
-
Unreal win. Went to the game. Last week we deserved it. This week we didn’t.
But proof the program absolutely is legit. Competing like this two weeks in a row has been a treat.
-
@Kcmatt7 I’m not sure why you would say we didnt deserve it. The first block kick should’ve been a penalty be the guy was clearly on someone’s back. The announcers pointed it out plain as day in the replay on TV. The defense rose up to the challenge and got big stops. We had more yards in less plays. I hate to be a dick but why didnt we deserve that one?
-
That poor boy from TTech that fumbled the blocked FG is the kid from our town in Louisiana whom my daughter graduated with 4 years ago. He’s actually a very good player, but I suppose he’ll be the subject of look how TTech lost this game stories.

Outside of the long TDs, it took until late in the game to actually move the ball. 1st half offense was a joke outside of the two big plays.
Top it off with the lucky recover fumble…
I could get into it more, but I thought the win had more to do with a terrible game plan with no adjustments by Techs D than I did us executing. They were predictable and refused to make adjustments. Good job by Dearmon and Stanley to pick them apart though.

@jayballer73 I looked at Tech’s stats and they rely on the pass way more than rushing. Their passing yds is twice the amount of rushing yds. So, if our doggone secondary will show up, maybe our rushing offense will outscore Tech.
ummmmm ,psssssst - - guess what? – they killed us running the ball. – - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@Kcmatt7 I agree that the offense was stagnant in the first but 2 drops were killer and we was open deep all night long. Stanley missed too long twice. I feel like we didnt execute easy plays early and Tech was fortunate on several plays. Two fairly even teams IMO. If KU starts better and doesnt lose Bryce, it’s a 10 or 14 point KU win.
-
@Kcmatt7 that and Tech continued to throw the ball late with a lead and averaging 5 yards per carry. That’s asking for trouble, two eaches own my friend.
-
Guess who saw a fun game?🥳
-
Feel bad for the kid that Leon Lett’d this thing.
BUT! My lord. This team fights like hell. We would’ve folded down 17 in years past. But did we? No! We took it to them. We scored 37 in 35 minutes of game time. Was it pretty all the time? Nope. Did it almost give me a stoke and damage my liver? Yep. But did we come out of it 1-0? ABSO FORKING LUTELY.
Les and Dearmon are the new power couple in college football. /scene

Man I’m way too many beers deep. But I’ll bring some next time I’m in Lawrence and we’ll have a go at a bird!

@wissox If I was a student, I would make a banner of Coleman Jr and put it up in the ring of legends.
That was an incredibly improbable ending.
-
For anyone interested, there is already a “highlight” video on YouTube:
and of course it includes the end of the game!

Man guys and gal’s - - can you believe it? -I mean decent amount of fans in the stadium again , some electricity , - - can you believe that we still have any interest in a football game heading into the last part of October ?
Can we fully understand exactly just how close this team actually is to being 6-2 instead of 3-5 ? - - Does Coastal Carolina ( No Pooka Williams ) - - - West Virginia - - – Texas come to mind?
Dam I’m proud of these guys - -they don’t give up. - Just to have a OC that has that confidence in his QB - -that QB knowing he has his Coach’s support -Yes his 1st pass of the game was dum - -YET that pass to Robinson hit him right on the money - - full stride - -how sweet was that ?
We looked bad a lot during the game - - mercy we have to some how shore this run defense up - -really bad , BUT guys were coming - -people gonna have to start taking notice - - this is a DIFFEENT KU team - - - - -Were Coming - -
Let me ask what were we looking for this season? - -we was looking for progress right? - - We got that - - We were looking for competiveness right? - - -We got that. - -We have only not been in ONE game - - TCU, - -we coming. take notice
With Les 2nd year of recruits a full class - -guys I’m telling ya guys we got some good recruits coming in - - - -Also - here to tell ya Potter is gonna be a stud. - -It feels so good to at least be able to look forward to a Saturday afternoon and a game - -man it feels good. - - Do we got work to do? - -Hell ya - - a lot of work - -but were coming - -walk before you can run. - -We got a really sweet core of receivers - -It’s nice to watch football – the fans are coming back - awesome to hear those fans cheering again - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Has someone posted the QBR thing here yet?
https://twitter.com/jessenewell/status/1185913842716553218?s=21
This was BEFORE the Tech game. It probably went up given Stanley has a 91.5 QBR last night.
-
@jayballer73 Didn’t look like a decent crowd to me. Box score says 31,000. Exciting though none the less.

Like the necessary change at offensive coordinator, isn’t it time to give special teams coordinator, Mike Ekeler his walking papers? There are just too many breakdowns in all phases of our special teams. Maybe it’s too late in the season to improve special teams, but something needs to be done. Liam Jones doesn’t seem to have the leg strength for kickoffs and his FG accuracy is disturbing. Out of 6 KO’s, Jones only had one touchback and if my math is right, averaged kicking only to the 11 yard line on kickoffs. Texas Tech seemed to start each drive on their 30 or better.
I thought Texas Tech was getting improper leverage on other players’ shoulders while successfully blocking our kicks, but our line must block better. I’m sorry to spoil all the good cheer here, but special teams is a really weakness and is costing us W’s.

Seemed like a pretty good crowd!
