Iowa State Game
-
This is probably the better of our two chances left to become bowl eligible.
Beating the defending Pop Tarts Bowl champion is always a big deal of course. So tomorrow we’ve got our work cut out for us. They’re good enough to have beaten KState which of course we weren’t. But they’re also capable of losing to Cincy at Cincy which of course, we did too, but barely. They trounced Arizona, which we didn’t.
So what does it all mean? Probably another close loss putting this season out of its misery unless we can surprise much tougher Utah next week.
Reasons for hope is a layoff of 2 weeks, but ISU has the same. Lance has their number is another reason for hope. But sometimes those streaks end.
I’m gonna miss watching Jalon Daniels. He’s got some detractors here and some frustrating habits, like fumbling at really bad times, but his 21 TD’s and only 3 INTs is an impressive stat. Hopefully he gives us another good moment tomorrow and that the D holds.
-
ISU is missing 4 starting DBs to injury. JD should have a great game.
-
@FarmerJayhawk Wow, that’s a lot of injuries! Hopefully he can pick them apart.
-
I’m concerned , and yet not overly concerned , I mean we have beaten them the last two yrs so 50/50 chance anyways beat them at their place then beat them at our place
If we don’t win today then we not going to ANY kind of bowl- --cause we aren’t beating Utah
-
@FarmerJayhawk Question is will our O - line give him enough time to pick them a part or are w going to see a lot of blitz’s. ?
-
Defense picking up right where they left off in Arizona
-
Their O-Line is huge. Not sure if it’s huger than others, but seeing lots of 330-340’s on their roster and lead blocker on that first down run is 355 pounds. Can you imagine?
-
Really hoping for a W today. But, not counting on it.
-
Perfectly executed drive by ISU. Let’s go Hawks!
-
It looked like he was short on the TD. KU hit the orange post. But what do I know?
-
@patoh3 I thought the same but it would have just delayed the inevitable!
-
Jalon missed Henderson wide open down the field.
-
Pass interference anyone?
-
That’s some amazing special teams play there.
-
The long snapper was playing keep away.
-
Whew
-
My god it’s like we didn’t practice at all during the by week. I’ve always gave Lance credit because his teams typically improve thru out the season. This year it’s the opposite, we can’t make simple plays the later we go. We are gonna get blown out by 40 here today
-
Radio says he can kick with both legs and that helped right there.
-
@kjayhawks maybe by 30. ISU is taking their time
-
Oh bull crap here we go again taking away interceptions from us. Shaky call there from that replay.
-
Also ref waited for result of play to throw the flag. After suffering a drive killing non PI call last time we had the ball and this it’s just going to be hard to win with this admittedly piss poor defense.
-
We gave everything to football to win 5 games a year. Need to just stop the hell with new stadium, give to basketball and maybe we can be good in something again
-
Anybody know any good fishin holes?
-
We’ll see how our next drive goes. I might have switch to radio and listen while I do some yard work. Not sure I’m willing to commit 3 hours on this.

God hates Kansas football apparently
-
The problem is the offense has to be more aggressive, have to score every time we touch it 4th and less than 5 go for it, defense ain’t stopping anyone
-
@DanR if don’t score here I’m going grocery shopping which I hate doing but is an improvement from this debacle
-
This is better
-
@DanR much better play calling
-
Using the screen against an aggressive defense
-
Better tempo but I’m worried about fumbling
-
Smh a FG does you zero good in this game to begin with.
-
Offense looks good and the we have a penalty that derails the drive. That maybe the straw that broke the camels back.
-
I don’t think it was tipped
-
We need a turnover. Screw up ISU
-
Every QB we play looks like they are playing madden, maybe that’s why they like JD so much. He prob looks like a god at practice against these losers
-
@DanR that does not have a penalty associated with us.
-
Every penalty is against us.
-
Well we didn’t give up 7 at least
-
Come on offense, keep the game interesting, I don’t want to turn it off early and have to go outside and take care of the lawn.
-
Doing better against the run. My god every pass is to a wide open clown though
-
After that first drive by ISU, I was asking Do we actually have linebackers on the field? Where the hell are they? Up the middle is wiiiide open.
Looks like that’s a wrap already for today. Sigh.
-
@rockchalkjayhawk for some reason we line up 2 linebackers on the edge every play. One in the middle but he get blocked so there is no one there

I’ll never understand that D philosophy.
-
@rockchalkjayhawk yep especially when we have let up about 30 rushing TDs right up the gut this season
-
Throw it deep
