@Jhawk69 we need to have that mind set regardless of the opposition for the rest of the year. I’ll say the same I said last season about this game, I don’t see the loser making a bowl game.
-
The Big 12 to me looks wide open at this moment. I agree 100% with @Texas-Hawk-10 we have to take care of business at home in the early season. After the October 4th game at UCF the schedule gets a lot tougher and if it turns into a situation where we need 2 or 3 wins. I just don’t see it happening. I think both Arizona and Cincinnati are better than most thought they would be. But working in our favor I Missouri as painful as it is to admit is a potential top 10 team right. That Hardy kid at RB maybe the best in the country at his position.
-
@Jhawk69 I listened to the WVU coach after the game and DAMN! I’m fired up! I may have to switch teams.
Not really, but it was impressive to see him talk (rant) about his team, school and state.
-
@nuleafjhawk I’m not impressed. --the line has us as a 11.5 favorite—thats a lot for a KU team I don’t think we will cover that BUT I think wwe should stii control this game
-
@SlimShaddy54 that seems like a huge line for a conference game
-
That line will shrink so betting on us not to cover before the line moves could be smart.
*this does not constitute official gambling advice **gambling problem? Call a gambling hotline
-
We should cover. Lance is a wizard off byes and we’ll be healthier than we’ve been all season.
-
@kjayhawks That’s a really big line for K and now up to 12’5
-
Speaking of bye weeks I’m a little frustrated that KSU gets a bye heading into the sunflower showdown for the 4 time in the last 6 years. They’ve beaten us 16 straight times maybe we should stop giving them that advantage B12
-
@kjayhawks Well they get that bye, but we get that same bye so they gain nothing. We play Tech on the 11th then we don’t play again until the 25th So they aren’t gaining anything on us there
-
Ok State is down 16-3 at home to Tulsa
-
Gundy is so getting fired
-
Tech really took it to Utah in the 4th. Them and TCU look for real.
-
Boy you have to wonder if seat is starting to heat up on Luke Fickell at Wisconsin. How about Jeff Grimes’s offense not getting in the end zone til 20 seconds to go. The Wisconsin fans already want his butt gone like I did last year. I’ll be nice but a big haha to the guy on here that gave me so much crap for hating him from day 1.
-
Fickell is toast. Same results with both Longo (who was really good at UNC and Ole Miss) and now Grimes. The Badger faithful won’t tolerate that.
-
The Badgers have tolerated outdated, predictable, and unproductive offenses for as long as I can remember.
-
They at least won. Chryst got fired when things went south.

Tolerated? We loved it. Won a lot of games, put up video game numbers, at least running. Always tough Defenses too.
Fickell should be gone I hope.
But I was a Jayhawk fan before I was a Badger fan so lets focus on this game!
-
Indiana is kicking Illinois ass in the 1st half. 35-7
-
Go Gamecocks!
-
Illinois was pretty much ranked off of last years success not this years team.
-
The question becomes does Wisconsin throw the bank at Leipold to get him home? Hearing Florida is also interested
-
Fun fact if the day Wisconsin had to pay Kansas $500k to get Grimes hahahaha, idk pay him money to stay the hell away.
-
At this point Lance is a KU lifer. Can’t see anyone going after a 62 year old with his record in P4 football. I know Mrs. Leipold is very happy in LFK.
-
Florida is the team that’s getting brought up that could potentially make Leipold reconsider things. That’s a program that can win a national title pretty quickly and who I would be most nervous about of they decided Leipold was the man they wanted once they fire Napier after this season.
-
@FarmerJayhawk @Texas-Hawk-10 will be interesting to see what dominoes fall in time. But yes at Lance’s age he could easily become the Goat of KU coaches in football and retire in 5-7 years.
-
Lance is just such a weird cultural fit down there I can’t see bout sides seeing it as a good match. Kansas is the furthest south he’s coached by a good bit.
-
I’m a big fan of a lot of underdogs. One of those is Sean Lewis at San Diego State. They’re straight up whooping Cal right now. He’s a younger coach who has a really bright future. He was on KU’s radar at the time Lance was hired, though never a serious candidate.
-
@FarmerJayhawk there have been some really bad spreads thru the first month of play. Cal was favored in that game by 13 I believe, KSU was favored by 18 vs Army. Illinois was 7 points dogs in absolute beat down 63-10 by Indiana. The rankings will be interesting when they come out, Notre Dame finally won a game despite being ranked all season and the previously mentioned Illinois team was ranked number 9. I would be surprised if we don’t see a few votes come our way this week but don’t think we will be ranked yet. I personally like being ranked in the second half of the season rather than the first.

Gundy, Napier and Dabo. Dead men walking.
-
@BShark it’s hard to feel bad for Dabo with how reckless he runs his mouth.
-
Brett Bielema beat Indiana while at UW 83-20. While the coach is new at Indy, I wonder if that result was some motivation for them to pour it on against Ilinois?

I don’t think Dabo gets canned this year. That buyout is absurd
-
@FarmerJayhawk they give him a few bad years before anything happens, two nattys helps in that column
-
I feel a little bit better about our 31 yards rushing against Fizzou after South Carolina totaled -9 yards on the ground.
