Love how happy the guys are for Mbiya

Flory MVP for making Toppin his biotch though.

Alright fine, I'll take my 1st weekend exit glasses off. Now, I see your point.

I actually think the real indictment of the staff is they haven’t evaluated talent well enough in the NIL era.

Gone after big names instead of grinding the tape.

I thought they kept playcalling purposely bland to keep things hidden for next week.

I still hate the quick no huddle near the goal line when you don’t do that anywhere else on the field. Got a false start on that, and we’ll do the same thing 5+ times this year guaranteed.

Marshall was the right guy to start, but there were balls thrown that are turnovers against real opponents. He will have to be better next week.

Edward’s looks good in this offense and will break a few this year.

Defense was stout, but not saying much considering the opponent.

I expect us to do much of what we did last year against Mizzou. Play close enough all game, but just get warm down by the end. Need the offense to either score almost every drive or have a lot of sustained drives that eat up clock.

Looked like a 5+ win team to me though.

I HATE the switch everything defense. Causes us to rebound poorly and double team too much in the post.

Offensively I’m not sure we shoot it well enough to get much better. Offense for this group has to come from defense in a sense.

I still think they will get better as a team. But we are certainly not a good team right now. Incredibly lucky to not be 0-3 in conference play.

+16 with Mbiya on the floor and +11 with DP. The rest were basically even

Wahoo 6-0 silly to go for two but okay

They did it to waste Mizzou time to have to prepare for it. Nothing more than that.

Imagine being UK and firing Cal and sucking even worse

Only KU would have both QBs get hurt in one play

At the game - DP got up okay.

McComb 13/13 3TDs 234 yards against Holy Cross.

Only KU would have both QBs get hurt in one play

Been burned on the blitz about every time tonight

That ball is out.

Mizzou got a guy at QB… hat to say that

Shockingly entertaining game for there to be no scores coming from the offense yet 1.5 quarters in

I’d say Isaiah get one more drive then you have to pull him those 5 yards just cost us 3 points

I think you gotta just let him get all the reps this year. Let him learn, if he’s going to be the QB for two more years after this

Based on what do you think he is a multiple year P4 quarterback? Yes, work through some mistakes, but he has to show something??? Thus far, Simmons
looks a lot better and he's just 19...

You haven’t seen enough to write him off. So I think you have to assume he’s the future and you let him get experience in the big moments until proven otherwise. Not like Ballard has proven anything either.

We’re so lucky Mizzou is doing just as stupid if stuff

I was criticizing the decision to punt but that uhhh well that was a great punt.
