🏀 KuBuckets Archive

Love what what Coach Leipold has done for this team. I expect us to become bowl-eligible soon. But maybe not this week.

Unlike TCU, OU has had a whole week to prepare for Jason Bean. Plus, they're still stinging from the embarassment against Texas, not to mention our near-win against them last year. Without our top QB and running back, that's a lot to ask of the defense on the road. Fingers crossed though.

time to strap it up - -get after it and whup some Sonner Butt

I like our chances.

This is a trap game. OU is talented and a lot of their players are back. We need to set the tone early

Looks like we might spot them some points to make it competitive

WOW !!!

I'll take it lmao

All right. We can score. Let's get the D going.

Nice throw by Bean into double coverage. Plus a friendly bounce.

This could be interesting.

And there is THE ANSWER - - ROCK CHALK

Defense not great so far

Come on that's to easy

Clutch pickup there

REAL DEAL

Good answer

Offense hasn’t skipped a beat. D needs to make a play

Defense - - - Defense - - -has anyone spotted a - -Defense on the field ? - - -ANYBODY lol. - -Great Answer guys - -Defense has to show

Both teams making the network guys happy. The more they score, the more commercials they get to run.

That is the type of random luck we need to have happen today lol

THERE WE GO

Don't blink

Gonna have to adjust something on D

Bean needs to keep one and turn on the afterburners

Bean slides two yards short of the first down. Just turned it on and I see that.

Looked like he misjudged the first down marker.

We have a better chance of converting 4th and 3 than we do of stopping OU's offense

finally got a little pressure on them

@KirkIsMyHinrich Right on cue, we get a stop!!

Finally a stop

@wissox Ya you were waiting for that one lol

crowd looks concerned

We need a score here.

See what I don't understand. Here is Oklahoma dead last in the Big 12 in run defense. - I would be making them prove to me they stop us time aftre time instead of Jasons so so passing

OU has done a pretty good job of stopping the run so far is probably a big reason. They've also been stacking the box forcing Bean to beat them.

Bean is a 1 read guy. Not even looking underneath at check downs

Jeez, pay attention to the play clock guys !

Need to score here before half

Yikes. Hell of a play

Ugh higher or take 2 more steps

Need a stop and a score

Defense is sleep walking. Phelps doesn’t look like he has the usual energy today

K Logan making to many tackles. Crap!

This is looking more like previous ugly KU teams from the past. The defense has no clue

Doesn't take much to fool bryant

Get a score before half and we get the ball first to start 2nd half. Done it before

Imagine being Oklahoma and having to get excited about beating Kansas.

We're seeing the difference between Daniels and Bean today on full display and OU is forcing Bean to beat them and he doesn't have the accuracy or touch to consistently do that.

I'd say they're wearing our defense down, but we're way ahead of them in time of possession. Need to wake up.

@Texas-Hawk-10 I would add that Bean's fakes aren't nearly as effective as Daniels' on the option. Just not fooling anyone.

No they haven't come close to testing their run defense - 12 times in a half ain't squat especially when your playing against the worst run defense in the big 12 who is over 65 yards per game worse then any othr team in the league. - as a matter of fact they are like ranked 122nd out of 131- you have to legit test that kind of run defense more then that

what the hell was that play

Bean has no time either

Cannot give up a touchdown here.

Blowout on the horizon Jesus

making KU look like kids

If you are giving up a touchdown give up a quick one

Really need to answer here. Come on Bean

Tackling!

OU game planned to stop the run by stacking the box and forcing Bean to beat them. Despite the records, OU does still have far superior talent to KU. And now with OU up multiple scores, KU isn't going to be able to run as much because they need to pass to try and catch back up since the defense isn't stopping them today.

The D will need to figure it out at halftime. Find some energy.

Ok, I never noticed this before, so dumb question…
Why do our uniforms only say JAYHAWK.
Where’s the S?

let's get a score here...

beautiful run!

Wow. That was too fast. REALLY need to stop them here.

Did we score too fast? Lol.

Never! Not today

Gotta get some pressure on the OU QB

Onside kick! Jk

@Crimsonorblue22 crossed my mind…

Oh good, trash them for awhile!

Our kickoff kicker SUUUUUUCKS

It's hiding out with the D

Is Craig young playing? 15

CMON FELLAS. DAMN

I think he's hurt. Never mind

Our pass rush is uninspiring and bland. No stunts. Nothing.

What's Kenny Logan doing?

OU easily putting up 60 today

It's Bryant, dammit.

And yet another key player goes down.

Good lord they were really trying to make him
One foot hop 15 yards to get on the cart

What kind of cart is that? Bump his head getting him in.

Covered wagon...typical Okies.

ONE MORE PLAY D. Cmon guys

Cocky suckers!

GREAT STOP. Got some momentum going into halftime !

Lol all of that for nothing. Insane

Good hold there though

Kenny Logan jr

That might be the spark the D needed

What a dumb call!

Absolute chickenshit move to be in formation with the medical cart still out there. Classic OU. At least when I played football was on total hold when a guy was getting medical attention.

Need to see more of that from the D. It's only halftime and we're less than 10 points away from hitting the Over for both teams.

The pace that Oklahoma running so up tempo like they were saying on the radio just catching KU just like no rythm off balance - -speed.- - GREAT STOP at the half - - HUGE STOP. gonna needs lots of that in the 2nd half get this turned around

So we need to stop the run on 1st. And we need to stop the WR screen.

Do that and I think we can get off the field.

JD must not be to bad huh? No sling? Sure like to hear about Hishaw, sure it's over for the yr.

We gave up 487 yards of total offense in the 1st half. We just need to in general play defense

Not the play of the yr. Personally I thought Arnold's catch was darn good!❤️💙🏈🌾🌾

@Crimsonorblue22 said in (NOT) OK BOOMER GAME THREAD:

They are saying JD might come back after the bye week in two weeks

I did hear somebody say that, not sure it was anybody in the know. Baylor looked beatable. Thought OU would be too. Our D😥

We bettr come up with different plan on defense 2nd half. - -maybe more blitz. - -Oklahoma is worst at protecting QB given up 15 sacks -KU is tied for the lead in Sacks something needs to give

Ball fakes?

Ugh again

Come back to the ball too

Bean just doesn't have the ability to read defenses the way Daniels does. And I don't see him getting any better at that.

Gotta have it

@nwhawkfan I’m interested in seeing what Vasko can do at this point. I like Bean, but we will need to throw the ball and score quick to have a chance and he can’t do it.

Bean telegraphs a lot more than Daniels. Daniels is better at keeping the defense guessing

Weve given up. Look at the lack of enthusiasm from the sidelines after the pick

@KirkIsMyHinrich said in (NOT) OK BOOMER GAME THREAD:

JD runs the RPO scheme so well too. Bean doesn’t

Well now, wait a minute...

Guess it doesn't really matter who our QB is, if we can't stop the other guys.

@nwhawkfan yea not going to win a lot of games giving up 50

Do we have any help coming in for the defense next year?

@KirkIsMyHinrich I would imagine you see us go big in the portal again. But mostly we need this group to just get better over the off-season.

Zero pride. This could have been a game if we could have gotten a stop here

Hangover from last week’s letdown is what it feels like. We just went through the motions today.

Just not the same talent. Phelps is playing hurt I heard

Normally I back Lance's coaching decisions. But I'm beginning to question the wisdom of bringing Brian Borland with him from Buffalo as DC. He may literally be out of his league.

Loyalty to your guys is all well and good, but this kind of stuff can't continue much longer.

Does bean have a stronger arm than JD?

Fairchild all day! Andale kid

He put some height on it too

@nwhawkfan the personnel is also really bad. We have, maybe one P5 quality corner? Not much at DE except Phelps. And a lack of overall team speed.

Well, time to switch to the ALDS playoff game. Gotta see at least one of my teams win today.

RCJH

There is still large disparity in talent between KU and OU. OU players are bigger and faster.

On Offense, KU has been really good due to creative play calling and using JD's strengths.

On Defense we really need to upgrade the roster.

🧹🧹🧹

@Crimsonorblue22 I would say so, however, JD is a better passer.

Well, the defense is giving up some points for sure.

Seems like two significant turning points were both Bean interceptions, and the batted down screen. Unfortunate.

He sure makes other very nice throws though.

I kept saying all we need is a defensive stop and we're in this game, but then the first INT...

Oh well. Not a horrendous road result while missing your star QB.

@Crimsonorblue22 said in (NOT) OK BOOMER GAME THREAD:

Yes, but Daniels has much more precision, accuracy, and touch on his passes. Also much better field vision. I'm not convinced KU wins with Daniels today because of the defense, but I do think KU wins last week and today is more competitive because the score today doesn't really reflect how today went.

Well Can't really blame a lot of this on Bean and the offense. We put 42 points on the Board , SURE Bean threw a couple of interceptions but he wasn't the reason we lost. - -We lost because of the defensive side of the ball - -You put 42 points on the board a team should win the game 95-100. - you can try and twist this any way you want but when a team goes like 16 or 17 out of 20 on third downs against you - -thats not getting it done - Our defense has a long ways to go

Not going to win many games where you give up 700 yards, and 36 first downs, and never make the other team punt. That just looks like a scrimmage for OU's offense against a Jr High team.

I've been saying all year that KU would have some games like this because the defense is still bad. We're in the stretch of the season where KU is playing the most high powered offenses in the conference and KU's margin for error just isn't there.

I dont think KU wins last week with Jalon. Jalon had hit a wall. I do think he is the better quarterback, just that the 2 halves he played prior to injury were not great.

@Texas-Hawk-10 The remaining schedule is brutal. Which game(s) do you see as winnable.

ISU is the best defense in the Big 12 and just made Quinn Ewers look average and KU made a lot of adjustments in the second half against TCU and with Daniels, I don't think we see the missed passes that played a role in KU's loss.

With a healthy Jalon Daniels, every game left is a winnable game for KU. Without Daniels, Texas Tech is probably the most winnable game. That doesn't mean I think KU wins every game with Daniels back, but they're capable of winning every game.

I admire your optimism

Is he coming back? I’m more worried about injuries on the other side

@Texas-Hawk-10 good points.

After watching Baylor the other day against West Virginia I think they are also possible winnable - -not saying it will happen but West Virginia rushed the tires of their defense - the same West Virginia team that really didn't run the ball exceptionally well against us. - Again NOT saying we will - - saying we can - -and agree Texas Tech is als winnable
