I'm surprised that there is so much less chatter about today's game. It's Homecoming on the Hill and KU is 4 and 0. I've watched a bit of ISt this year and after enduring Brock Purdy for 4 long years, I'm not impressed with ISt's offense this year. Clearly they are a huge step behind the Purdy/Breece offense and before that Montgomery. KU's offense is stronger, so this game will be determined by the defenses. ISt's stats are not helpful because half come from playing cupcakes SE Mo St and Ohio. How is it that KU plays such a tougher non-conference schedule than the recently more successful program that ISt has been?

I sure would like to see Neal, Hishaw, Morrison, et al. handle the bulk of the rushing offense. I'm still waiting for our running backs to dominate several series, especially late in the game where they failed against Duke. I'm constantly impressed with Daniels' passing accuracy and hope he really challenges the ISt secondary. Anyway, game time is close enough that I wonder what everyone else is thinking. Maybe, all our posters are traveling to the game. RC

Was listening to game day , they did a really good piece on the KU football program. KU hs become the Nations media darlings as they say. I have seen multiple interviews of Jalen

Anyways I was watching Game Day and it came to Bear and he said he had to go with Iowa State quoting that Iowa State was averaging only giving up 75 yards per game rushing against them & like 2.7 yards attempt. - They are 1st in the Big 12 in Total defense - - 1st in passing defense - -& 1st in rushing defense - - TIME FOR CHANGE BOYS

Once again going to depend on our O-Line stands up against their D-Line- gotta create holes , gotta keep pressure of Jalen. - -We gonna throw multiple , multiple looks against them.

Guys here is yte another game not a lot of people giving much of a Win to win - -let's go take another one. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Yes, JBaller, ISt stats show QB Dekkers #12 is not likely to run for any yds, and is mostly a drop-back passer: 101/141 72%, 1,029 yds. ISt only has 534 total yds. rushing of which #21, Jirehl Brock has 64 rushes for 353 yds. The primary passing target is #8 Xavier Hutchinson 36 catches, 403 yds. So, a pass first offense will test our secondary. The biggest question will be can our Dline pressure Dekkers and get him to throw INTs or incompletions?

Correction: ISt play breakdown is 147 passes to 136 rushes. But, yds gained heavily favors their passing game. KU has rushed 148 plays to 94 passes. Yds gained for KU are about even with 981 yds rushing and 906 yds passing.

Good God TCU just taking Oklahoma to the wood shed right now - - 20-3- -with 6:44 to go in the 1st qtr

Oklahoma's misadventures with purple teams chapter 2

@jayballer67 TCU with 27 first Q points, but still 3 Qs to play.

OK so either people over estimated how good Oklahoma was - -OR - -under estimated how good TCU was. I mean TCU putting up 34 points in the 1st half against Oklahoma , might be a little of both. - TCU'S defense looks pretty good at the present still over 9 minutes to go in the 1st half

Either way, Nebraska sucks

While waiting endlessly for our game to start, I find myself rooting for Ole Miss against Kentucky. Ole Miss 22,#7 Kentucky 19, 3 minutes to go and Ole Miss has the ball.

Boomer Sooner...Boomer Sooner! OU is getting a preview of what life will be like once they make the jump.

Let's just win

Look at that beautiful crowd. Come on, guys...let's beat these jokers!

Perfect day

Hold em

🥳

good coverage on that third down

Beautiful!

I'm so excited

@Crimsonorblue22 said in Good Grief, Just Beat Iowa State:

I'm so excited

are you at the game, crimson? Wave next time the camera pans around

I absolutely loved going to amazing sunny days like that during my time in Lawrence. The team stunk except for 1985 but it was still a great experience.

Nice play call

Next week. Youngest son is there with buddies, could be trouble

Awesome play!

Love casey

Wheels! Dumbass announcers

I hate refereees

kind of a weak hold. Looked like bean got hit out of bounds too, but what do I know, I'm a homer.

That was a weak hold

Announcers might as well wear gym shorts and tshirts.

not gonna be easy. these guuys avg only giving up 75 yds rushing per game

At least we have a gal on the field

Have 42 already

Offense showed it can move the ball. Defense must hold

@stoptheflop That's the thing I worry about most with this team.

Good D

We have a 47 on offense and a 47 on defense?

@wissox yes

@wissox said in Good Grief, Just Beat Iowa State:

We have a 47 on offense and a 47 on defense?

only 99 numbers and apparently we have 180 players

Major hold in the backfield on that first down pass.

@DanR Good grief, no wonder we're good!

i might be exaggerating about the number of players. I don't get it either

no penalty here, please

Crowd noise💙❤️

Runners and receivers need to learn the art of the stiff arm. Guys just run out of bounds when they could gain more yards. Walter Payton would be pissed if he saw it.

go for it you cowards

ha ha

Call ISU's center for false starts. What the hell

@KirkIsMyHinrich said in Good Grief, Just Beat Iowa State:

Call ISU's center for false starts. What the hell

yeah, that guy is definitely doing something illegal

Alright!🥳🤩💃

Doink!!

Iowa State ball control - - -ovr 8 minute drive and yte - - -NOTHING

Good pressure on QB by KU so far

@wissox said in Good Grief, Just Beat Iowa State:

Too dangerous. Wide receivers are barely wearing any pads these days. Running backs still use the stiff arm once in a while

@DanR Ok, but they still need to stop running out of bounds. Drives me nuts!

Forward progress had been stopped

We're about to get screwed by this review I'm afraid. Whistle blew apparently. Knee down too?

well, forward progress was definitely stopped. Maybe the ref blew the whistle

I mean, how long can defenders hold a guy up and rake at the ball?

Ref show

whew

Good! KU ball

ISt has -12 yds rushing. So far so good defense

Good PI call

grimm doesn't miss that catch without PI

Good cover up on 🏈

That was sexy

Ew La la

Nice tight rope

I can hear hanni ahead of me

That'll probably get reviewed but let's go

Has to stand

he's in. play ball

I hate time wasting reviews

In

Boom!

🌾🌾🌾🌾❤️💙

Hishaw came to work today

I like the effort but also take care of the ball lol

Wheat waving time!

By the way is it still possible to see inside the stadium from the hill?

Tough run by HiShaw - - - Sweet run by Devin

Hishaw is a wagon

not a great view from the hill anymore (scoreboard and lots of tents)

The defense has to get more pressure on Dekkers. ISt is only moving the ball through the air.

Defense

oops!

You can’t do that man

Good lord

Terrific punt tho

Boo. ISU been holding all day long

that was basically a textbook block these days

I thought there was a PI

I'm surprised by how much Bean is being used. Daniels has only rushed once.

Okay defense

Let's gooooo

All right all right

He jumped like Kobe to get that one

Again!

Wow!!! That was awesome!

trouble in paradise on the clown sideline

Got to punch this in.

I have no idea what was illegal about that route skinner ran

I think LL knows more than the ref

Ref. Show.

We win

I'm listening to hanni, tellif u don't want to hear

Score now!

Good job coach!

The white hat is getting more screen time than our Heisman QB

@FarmerJayhawk 🤩😎🌾

Hey guys, it's a big twelve crew! Who'd have guessed that.

🤡🤡

what the hell is going on

I'm ok with this as long as they cancel the halftime show.

@KirkIsMyHinrich the ref would also like the answer to that question

@wissox homecoming!

Have to get 7 here

There it is. Let's go

❤️💙🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🏈love it!

nice little block by Neal on that TD

JD4Heisman

These head coaches are getting way too much air time. The ISt coach has been on my screen more than the actual game

The feel of this one is way different than the other games. Defense and hard earned yards are leading the way today and I'm actually encouraged we can play a game like this because our D hasn't come close to looking like this so far.

I sure hope we send crybaby Matt Campbell home with a big L

It's early but defense looks good?

@nwhawkfan sorry you are missing this. Hope you are enjoying your reunion. We are picking up the slack for you, but you are missed! ❤️💙🌾🏈

uhm, noone wants to emulate Ames

I'm going to wait until after the game to say good things about the defense actually. They have been playing well though

Crap

May have saved a TD with that PI

Ya, my bad

Gahhh crap

nice work on that drive, #3

Does his knee being down with the ball matter on that or no?

plenty of time to score

3 kind of forgot all he had to do was tackle the holder. But, just let him run it in. Jeez

What a ball

Go for it

man, I'd like to see them roll JD out in that situation instead of sitting in the pocket

Damn

Rare misfire from Lance

@FarmerJayhawk said in Good Grief, Just Beat Iowa State:

Rare misfire from Lance

one a week, hope that was it

Anyone agree with going for 3. After our D just left guys wide open on the last easy TD drive

I think I would have punted, then gone for it, then kicked a fg in that order

run the option on third down and then go for it on 4th if you don't pick it up

sack his ass. I don't want any chance of a BS pass interference

Come on D lets end strong

Lance taking the ball out of his QB's hands too much plus bad clock management at the end...

Good play defense

Ok cool. Let’s score out of the break

Feels amazing to be complaining up 6 at the half against a team that has dominated us lately.

I'll take that half. Got the ball to start the second half, so let's get it rolling. Hopefully, the flow of the rest of the game is better than that second quarter fiasco.

We look like the better team by not a small margin.

Got another game on Kentucky!

Bah gawd that's Andy Reid's music.

Ran a personal best 5K today. The sky is the limit because i'm only 58.

I really think KU should pass more; Jalon can really loosen up the defense by completing some easy 8 yd passes.

Only 26 snaps from the offense in that half wow

Okay so I'm still in favor of winning this. Let's get some points on this opening drive

Good effort there

Face mask call missed

Don’t like that playcall if you’re going to punt

Daniels does such a nice job selling the fake

Lance in coward mode

OK D. No more big plays.

I would have gone for that ugh

Wonder if Lance thinks our defense is good? lol

Can't take the ball out of JD's hands there

Need a turnover, apple, cherry, I don't care, just want one.

Coaches taking the ball out of their best players hands in important situations and losing. A tale as old as time.

D has actually been okay today. Struggled to get off on 3rd though unless they got a sack. Not a lot of good coverage.

Nice play. A little lucky there

good hit, logan

UNLEASH THE OFFENSE, LL

Time for an answer

ISt is finally in positive number on rushing; +7 for the game.

@FarmerJayhawk said in Good Grief, Just Beat Iowa State:

Time for an answer

Need a long drive. D tired, ISU running up the play count.

@DanR said in Good Grief, Just Beat Iowa State:

good hit, logan

Bryant got smoked on the defense; good thing Logan was there to knock the catch loose.

ISU's defense is good but KU has left some points out there.

Good return

Needed a little spark

Kicker aside, good special teams today.

This is really cool to be paying attention to KU football and all, but no matter what happens, we're still the defending national champs in basketball! All of the rest of this is gravy, but seeing proficiency in this sport as well would be really fun.

What a hit

Wagon.

Damn he was there

Gaaaaaaahh he had him

That was Walter Payton like. He sought people to hit.

Good punt. Need our defense to get a stop here

another weird call on third down in what could have been 4 down territory

What a punt

Another plus territory punt after a terrible third down call

Safety time

Was his foot on the line? I hope they don't review that

by my math, a safety would make up for that extra point

@KirkIsMyHinrich said in Good Grief, Just Beat Iowa State:

Was his foot on the line? I hope they don't review that

It was lol

@FarmerJayhawk said in Good Grief, Just Beat Iowa State:

Gaaaaaaahh he had him

That one will haunt if we lose.

is it his foot or the ball though?

@KirkIsMyHinrich Not positive that's the rule though is it? Is it position of the ball when it's touched?

@wissox said in Good Grief, Just Beat Iowa State:

@KirkIsMyHinrich Not positive that's the rule though is it? Is it position of the ball when it's touched?

I honestly don't know.

@DanR body parts in college I believe but maybe I have it backwards and that's the NFL. I think there is some slight difference with the two.

Good guy Lance messing up game management to kill the Nebraska talk. MY COACH. :relieved_face:

Ugh so close

GREAT STOP

Oh Jesus lord

looked like good timing

@FarmerJayhawk said in Good Grief, Just Beat Iowa State:

Oh Jesus lord

BUTT CLENCHER TIME

I thought he timed that well

@DanR Saw one replay, not 100% positive it was offside. Either way a bad mistake at that point.

The team with the worse QB is being much more aggressive cool cool cool.

Get a stop now. Let’s go

Give the DL coach a fat raise

good job

Outcoached.

Wow

FFS how lucky can they get

@BShark said in Good Grief, Just Beat Iowa State:

DAMNIT. Hope Lance takes some notes about not punting from the 40

Man that was a shot

Wind knocked out of him. Hell of a catch

@Kcmatt7 said in Good Grief, Just Beat Iowa State:

DAMNIT. Hope Lance takes some notes about not punting from the 40

You should basically never do it.

Hutchinson needs to go into concussion protocol. He's destroying us this half.

That was a good throw too. He threw it before his receiver turned. If that's not timed perfectly they don't get it.

😘

COBEE

Big play. Did he get a foot down?

We needed that just to get the D off the field after 16 plays

Yes he did. Awesome

LET"S REVIEW IT

YES!

Bobbled on ground. Refs will look I'm guessing.

Pooh hasn’t been on tv enough lately

Might overturn that. I don't know

he was down before the bobble

ISU with the inferior QB has thrown the ball 24 more times okay sure

I hate that because he tucks jt so he clearly has possession with a foot in. But not sure the rules here

@BShark in all fairness, LL and AK are absolutely run first dudes.

it looks like he was down b4 he went out of bounds to me

The stupid must complete the catch rule might bite us here.

sack his ass

In bounds that's an interception. So stupid.

Its when he hit the ground

Hey Hutch, want to run across the middle again?

DOINK

These goal posts are on our side

To quote a great philosopher, ball don't lie.

Didn't think he could do that again

@FarmerJayhawk said in Good Grief, Just Beat Iowa State:

DOINK

Double doink?

Doke lives in Lawrence!!!!

@Kcmatt7 as a Bears fan, that hurts me

I saw they just give up and go home

Unleash the offense!

let's mount a good drive and put some more points on the board

ALRIGHT GIVE JD THE BALL EVERY PLAY.

Needs those Heisman numbers

@FarmerJayhawk Me too!!

Not again!

Oh JD

We are trying not to lose

😎

Oh that helps

That's a gift

Hot dang

we’ll take that thanks

That was special.

Our defense to keep them from the end zone time after time even after double the amount of plays is remarkable

throw it to Casey

We GOTTA punch one in here

How was that not blown dead

Forward progress?

stupid

Hurt too

These refs do not know of forwards progress some how. Twice today

i like how hard he runs, but he has to learn to go down

Yea Hishaw needs to go into timeout for a week to make a point

Well providing he’s even healthy

Wtf, go down!

I had to look to see the score, forgot

Just insane all around

three points wouldn't have helped much anyway

Can we get a 3 and out though? Have we had one today?

Serious?

the ol' run down the clock strategy, oh boy

I hate bleeding the clock like this by KU. Basically give ISU a chance to win with no ability to answer if they score

I want a replay on the ineligible downfield...

come on, we can get 12 yards

Well crap

Defensive hold missed. Fun.

he had 5 seconds

SIGH. Alright D this one’s on you to win

My optimist side says we can still not lose this

thank you for the clipping

Blocks in the back. On everyone

Are you shitting me

one more time D

I hate refs

Obvious block in the back lol

Refs are struggling

Need to consider a timeout here

BOOM

one more play come on

I’d take a TO here just in case

Damn

Hold em to a FG please

This feels so much like the damn Chiefs game it’s stupid

I want a pick

Another hold in the backfield

@DanR strip sack would be great too.

ISU's aggressive playcalling is what won them this game.

Holding everywhere

big guy didn't get off the field

whew refs

CALL A TIMEOUT HOLY HELL

ROCK CHALK how about that D!??!

@Crimsonorblue22 we looked two scores better than them all day…. A win is a win. But not sure we can say our coaches out our players in the best spot to win.

Losing Hishaw sucks really bad though. And LL's play calling...

But defense stepped up. And 5-0 feels good

Who would put the game on his foot?

@Crimsonorblue22 lol this is fair

Poor kid

@BShark said in Good Grief, Just Beat Iowa State:

@stoptheflop Huge loss especially given how much Lance likes to run.

Daniel's passes were mostly off today; really just an off day for the offense against a good ISt defense.

You know what guys , no matter whatever it takes to win. Sometimes it's ok to be a little bit lucky. Thing is TODAY our DEFENSE won us the game - -our DEFENSE ! ! !. - like they were saying on the radio

were not going to run into many if any tougher defenses then Iowa State today. Sure we will face tough defenses but doubt if much tougher. - It just goes to show that our defense IS getting better a little at a time, but they stood up today. Iowa State had close to 35 more snaps but the defense showed. - -It just shows we can win different ways, we can stay in a game/win a game without our offense scoring in the 40"s

Also like I hear sure this will squelch the talk about Jalens Heisman - but I but if you was in the KU locker room he is just as happy with a TEAM WIN then as a individual honor. No matter how you look at as even with the offense stuck in mud today - -bottom line is we FIVE & O Huge game coming Saturday guys

@stoptheflop said in Good Grief, Just Beat Iowa State:

you can give Iowa State's defense for that - - there is a reason they are 1st in the league in total defense - - 1st in run & 1st in pass defense- -yet we still found a way to win

@wissox said in Good Grief, Just Beat Iowa State:

We won a game. Not sure how Lance was outcoached. Our defense was coached marvelously.

I'm not going to say our defense coached marvelously today, especially in the second half when ISU was getting good yardage running that crossing route and converting a lot of 3rd and 4th downs with play. We also definitely got lucky their freshman kicker was awful today because we gave ISU several chances to win today. I would definitely consider this a game ISU lost more than KU won.

While I wouldn't necessarily say Leipold got outcoached today, I would say that ISU made the better adjustments in the 2nd half today and pretty much shut KU's offense down and moved the ball much better in the second half than the first half.

At the end of the day, sometimes it's better to be lucky than good and KU was pretty lucky today.

@Texas-Hawk-10 big pet peave of mine is people saying we got lucky, our coaches, etc. 11 points is all that team scored. They have a really trendy young coach who won’t last too long in Ames I’m afraid. The double doinks we’re both about forty yards, the last one nearly that long of memory serves correctly. The defense forces them to settle for long fg attempts. I didn’t like the punt call necessarily but it was a call that helped us win the game because unless I’m mistaken they ultimately didn’t score on that one.

Has anyone ever seen officials take a second review on a play? Crybaby Cambell called timeout, then the officials actually reviewed their review. Is there any protocal that allows officials to make a second review? Crybaby Cambell complained about calls during and after the loss to Baylor last week. Somehow the officials have decided Cambell's complaints warrant extra attention. I guess Campbell is on a pedestal now that some believe loser Nebraska has added him to their list of next-to-be-fired-coach.

@stoptheflop I think I just saw that happen, maybe the chiefs game?

This game made me think we have plot armor

So, are we gameday next week?

Going back to losing to TCU late last season in basketball our teams are on a 16-0 streak.

-23 yards in our final 4 drives. Lol

Victory! That was a comedy of odd things on the field today. Poor ISU kicker.

So was the opposing defense that good or did it seem like we didn’t really put Jalon to good use today?

Anybody know about Hinshaw? I honestly don’t know about his previous injuries, but from what I read it sure seemed related to a previous “rare” hip injury. Sucks.

And I’ll just say it (sorry)… Fans, please stop mobbing the field after wins. Just stop. Amateur hour. Injury waiting to happen. You’re better that that.

@approxinfinity said in Good Grief, Just Beat Iowa State:

Bad ball comes to the gridiron. Just win, baby.

CBS Sports is estimating that KU will be ranked #15-ahead of KState at #21. I need JayBaller to use his resources to announce the rankings ahead of the actual websites that I was hounding last weekend. Yesterday didn't feel like a win: no second half points and only 3 first downs. But, KU is 5-0 and preparing for TCU and gameday next Saturday. RC, Baby

Your right.

Iowa St. is probably the best defense in the Big 12 so they did a pretty good job of keying on amd containing Daniels. Daniels also didn't have a great day throwing as he missed a couple of big passes in the endzone. Leipold also said during the post-game conference that he was intentionally more conservative yesterday because of how good ISU's defense is.

It should also be noted that Gavin Potter did not play yesterday to maintain his redshirt and has left the team with the intent to transfer after the season.

Potter leaving is interesting. Seemed like a good player. Hope it goes well for him.

@DanR said in Good Grief, Just Beat Iowa State:

Potter leaving is interesting. Seemed like a good player. Hope it goes well for him.

He was barely playing because of off-season upgrades at LB, namely Young from Ohio St. coming in.

Anybody have a Hinshaw injury update? Can't find squat.
I'm assuming he has a serious injury but ya never know.

@rockchalkjayhawk surgery Thursday, done for the year.

Gotcha. Crap. Thx

@FarmerJayhawk career ending? To late to med. Red shirt?

@Crimsonorblue22 that I don’t know. Not sure anyone does until they open him up. It’ll be his second year lost to injury so he could definitely apply for one. Which would complete his trinity of redshirts: Covid (2020), normal (2021), medical (2022). He could get a 7th year in 2026 if the NCAA grants the medical.
