I still see this game as a must win for KU. Jason Bean has to play well enough not to lose the game. Neal, Hishaw and McDuffie have got to have huge games. KU's offense and fans will just have to move on without Jalon Daniels.
@stoptheflop Right there with you sir. Bean wasn’t good last week but that was against a Texas that may actually be a top 5 team and national contender. Bean has proven himself very capable in the past let’s hope he does once again this afternoon.
Some fans , now haven't seen it here but, some thought the sky was falling with bean going to have to be our QB today. Your right Bean has proven himself, that Texas game well that was Texas this year, a really dam good team. Stour and mean Stout defense.
I was worried more I'll admit when I see Plumlee coming back to start against us vs Bean - -you might know they get their starting QB back and we lose ours BUT seen a stat comparison and when it's all said and done Bean/Plumlee pretty much a wash. - Both completing about 64 % of their passes - -Plumlee runs the ball for a little more average like - - 68 yds per to Jason's 43 - the one thing I noticed looks like Plumlee a little more careless with the ball when throwing - -His INT ratio is quite a bit higher then Jason
They talked about how UCF'S secondary are undersized like I think 6 ft and like 205 - - -210 - even the D-Line not that big. UCF has problems against the run. - -So KU needs to run , run , run With Devin , Daniel & McDuffie until they prove they can stop it. - -They do have a couple of pretty good DB'S so probably not challenge them a lot.
KU'S problem with UCF is they are quick/fast , really good speed. - -Important we can string out plays - -get some TFL'S- It said they like to attack slow linebackers -which don't really think our line backer's are that slow. Yet they like to throw intermediate route pass's - Another wash is Plumlee pass attempts average I think was 7.9 yds per - -Jason is actually a little better - like right about 9.
I just hope the fans show - -the fans stay - our fans are loud.- -Need to let them know where they are. - -- I think in the end going to be a good day - well hopefully lol - -I think we got this 38 - -34
Just remember to write Central Florida, not UCF!
Just saw a clip of the infamous 5th down game when Colorado spiked it on 1st down, ran two run plays, on 4th down spiked it again which fooled everyone and the Buffs scored on 5th down. It was against Missouri. Hilariously, Mizzou's fans stormed the field thinking they'd gotten the stop on 5th down, started tearing down the goal posts even though apparently no one caught the refs glaring mistake.
I want to see the KU defense that dominated Illinois show up today; where in the hell have they been? A win today will take a complete game from both our offense and defense. I'd like to see KU run the ball the first couple of series to let Bean settle in. Oh how this season has changed: underdogs to Central Florida at home. Come on now.
The team goes as the QB goes. With Daniels this team could be special, just like when Reesing was QB. But it’s no different than any other team - the Chiefs would suck without Mahomes.
First, Bean cannot get hurt. Can you just imagine a Big 12 game without Daniels or Bean because of injuries. So, please don't call QB runs unless it's like Mahomes does it where he runs 10 yds and scoots out of bounds without being touched. We need the RBs to dominate on offense, then take some shots downfield after KU has established the run. On defense, Plumlee threw 2 INTs in both games he played this year. KU needs some INTs today, so the defensive line must put constant pressure on the QB. This is a must win!

Reading the rest of the story now, Missouri fans, some at least knew immediately that the extra down was awarded and were storming the field because they were mad. Some had violence on the mind and tried to take out a Colorado player but instead hit a cop, big oops. That Colorado player had told his coach it was third down even though the down marker said 2nd down and McCartney told him to "shut up and just play football".

@Gorilla72 Thanks, I read this big long article about it.

Illinois is a bad team this year, lost 20-7 at home to Nebraska last night. UCF is a better team than that and has a very strong running attack. KU will have their hands full on defense and after last week, I'm not sure KU can stop a strong rushing attack yet.

The bigger question wil be will UCF be able to stop Ku run game, they have not stopped anyone running the ball yet -- Ku should run , and run some more against them

Bean had a bad game against Texas but I truly believe he’ll be better moving forward. He’s a very good backup even if that didn’t show.
Is this UCF team better than Ok st was last year?

I think their team speed is for sur better then Okie St last year, bout it.
Let’s go!
Good stop
We should run for 300+ today
I like the blue/crimson uniforms
Bean seems to always overthrow receivers. But at least KU got 3
Bean could have ran for the first there. Also had a TE wide open.
Good opening drive, though
Casey was open across the middle right on the goal line IMO
At least we came away with points.
Solid drive, but need 7's instead of 3's to win this one.
Good stop. Let’s put them away early
Daniels not on the sideline today?
@FarmerJayhawk said in Say Goodnight to the Knights:

What Farmer said "Put them away early."
Yeah at this point let’s just not throw again
Lol jk Bean is good
Sometimes he is
TRUCK STICK
These unis in that bright sunlight look like a bunch of dudes playing for the local psych ward where they escaped from. Do they even have numbers?!!
White Sox play by play guy Jason Benetti on the call. He's one of the best in the business.
My youngest son is at game w/a bunch of buddies. They were w/all the bb players and he sends me a pic of him and Juan. Then he says mom I'm gonna FaceTime you. So I click on it and there's KJ going hi mom. I was really embarrassed. My other son says mom why r u FaceTiming KJ?
🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾💙🏈❤️
Bean is gaining confidence!
Fellas came to play today. All Business
OL is feasting
I'm still pretty hype about Hishaw running that UCF dude over. That was filthy
@KirkIsMyHinrich glad he healed!💪🏽
Anybody see mangino and mason in pregame? Saw a lil. Mangino looked pretty good.
Gus can’t keep Plumlee in there. He’s a sitting duck
@FarmerJayhawk goodness! It's way too early, huh? I meant to come back.
@Crimsonorblue22 the poor guy can’t move. I don’t think he’s healthy enough to be out there
Hishaw just looks for guys to run over
Bean!😎
Please, please just keep running the ball
Kotelnicki is all in his bag
@FarmerJayhawk I added, to early to come back
Love these calls!
Who's Andy Kotelnicki? I don't even think the guy exists. Sounds like a made up name to me. Nothing to see here.
Wave it!🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾😎🌾🌾🌾💙🏈❤️
@KirkIsMyHinrich a very advanced AI playcaller
These guys haven't even had a chance to talk about our Australian punter 40 times yet
No reason in hell for Bean to run the ball. C Florida is just going to take extra hard shots at him
Knew that little Wilson dude would break one eventually
Good times Happy days
Wow, the defense really has shown up. RC
🌾🌾🌾💙🏈❤️ I knew it too. I heard he might be the fastest or close to Bean! That was beautiful!
Like I said earlier. Run the ball , run the ball , run the ball. UCF has no answer - -& then we got Trevor. - - -ROCK CHALK
Excuses for their QB being gimpy but none for us missing our starting QB?
Trevor f’ing Wilson
Grapes lost, Slavers lost, Evil Empire lost. Good guys up big. Good stuff
These are the most positive game guys we've had. They are at least having fun!
@KirkIsMyHinrich EE, texass?
Definitely didn't expect an ass whooping like this in the 1st half. Thought it'd be a mich more competitive game based on UCF's running abilities they had shown so far this year.
DEFENSE
Murphy's Law type of day for UCF jeez
Also, Austin Booker is the truth
Skinner should've had that
Two straight pass plays should be illegal in this game
@KirkIsMyHinrich yeah got a little greedy
Wow, I'm a bit behind catching up to live, decided to fast forward through a punt because nothing ever happens on those....Wrong!
And we get it out of the break
Could be worse!
UCF knows a comeback is possible. Gotta keep it up in the second half. Hopefully those long drives have a cumulative effect on the UCF d in the second half.
Got to come out strong here in the 2nd half. - -Take the kick off and drive down score right off the bat. - -Dam Hishaw would just run through you instead of run around you-- - physical

Hishaw is a great compliment to Neal's elusive style of running
Well that’s nice
Wow. Glad I was back from walking the dog.
Unbelievable!🥰🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾💙🏈❤️
Today is a good day
Great day!
@Crimsonorblue22 said in Say Goodnight to the Knights:
@DanR weather perfect there, too?
I'm down in Monett, Missouri with my Mizzou fan inlaws. It's really nice here too. :beaming_face_with_smiling_eyes:
Coaches who take points off scoreboard when trailing by a bunch don't make sense.
Defense yikes
Time to work in some of the reserves, like McDuffie, Morrison and Locklin. Get them some carries.
This line is just doing work
Good reminder today that this offense can be fun to watch even without Daniels
Do we really need Bean running though?
Bean!🙏
I know it's open, but I sure wish Bean wouldn't run the ball with this big lead.
🥳🥳🤩🤩🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾💙🏈❤️🥰💪🏽💪🏽😤😤👏👏
McDuffie. TD Yeah
Central Florida doesn't want to be called UCF because it sounds like a directional school. Well they're sure playing like a directional school today.
I mean this is just a straight up ass kicking
Was that McMuffin ? Lol mcDuffie?
Even James Naismith doesn't want us to pass the ball today
That’s what we get for swapping kickers
Bean has done a good job when he has passed it. Too bad they haven't been working w/him all along. Last week wouldn't have been quite as bad.
4 Q KU needs to get some reps for the 3rd and 4th string QBs. Especially if the OC is going to continue to have Bean run the ball. We still need another win to go bowling
Wasn't paying attention, thought Central Florida just busted a long one for a TD, now I see they only got 2 points for that TD. We should give up more 2 point TD's!
Gus is getting too cute
I hope Hishaw get 5 more yds to break 100 today.

Nothing like a good ol ass kickin. - UCF has no idea how to stop our run. - - - Neal ANd Hishaw both over 100 yards - -Neal is like 154 right now & Hishaw is right at 100
@Crimsonorblue22 Oh, sad to hear. Thanks for letting me know. Used to like reading him and others commenting on Royals stuff.
Well they scored. we just have to stay ahead of the sticks. Don't get cutte just keep running it down their throats
Tackled by his own player! Could've had a punt return and a KO return for a TD today.
Hishaw over 100. RC Now, please sit him and let the other guys carry the rock
This is just silly
Neal with 154 - - Hishaw with - -134,- -But mercy our Defense has got work to do -- to easy for UCF
Wow, McDuffie looks great
RockChalk
Good comeback from last week.
Late Night was lame.
Almost went back for my 50th reunion in Leavenworth this weekend. Almost. Only 24 people out of a class of 357 were going🤦♀️
Smh
OK, that's enough injuries.
Atta way D!
Defense gets a stop finally. Let's get one more!
Oh, welcome to the big 12 directional school Central Florida!
Where was Dooley at in Florida
@RockChalkinTexas Gulf Coast
UT lost 🙋♀️🍺🔴🔵
TD
🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾❤️💙🏈👏👏👏
Rock Chalk! I enjoyed this one a lot!
Welcome to the Big XII🌾🌾🙌
@FarmerJayhawk do you hear Lance might be leaving or is that BS?
Too bad we couldn't get a holding penalty on that drive so we could top 400 rushing yards and get McDuffie to 100 yards also.
When was the last time KU scored 50+ in a Big 12 game? Was it Colorado in 2010?
Whoever said we were going to run for 300 yards today was wrong.
Getting a win next week at Oklahoma St before going to bye week would be huge. Would give us confidence and rest before a huge game at home against OU.
Good win today
fun game
My favorite play, Trevor Wilson.
@KirkIsMyHinrich they looked really good last night. Hope it was ksu looked really bad. Wish it was at home.
@Texas-Hawk-10 we beat ksu 51- 22 2008 biggest win
I'm gonna say this. - -I didn't see this coming , not this big , I had 38-34 KU just total dominance - -on the O-Line
@Crimsonorblue22 said in Say Goodnight to the Knights:

The Colorado comeback game was in 2010 with Gill. Has KU scored 50+ in a Big 12 game since that 2010 Colorado game though?
With my work obligations I wasn’t able to watch any of this unfortunately. Best way to keep the pressure off Bean is to run the ball with such efficiency. Always fun to wear a KU hat in Aggieville when KU has a better record in football. Only one guy tried to fight me lol. I tell you this folks, they are scared KU could beat them this season being in town after this weekends events.
@Crimsonorblue22 I would put good money on Lance retiring a Jayhawk
Well considering UCF is the third best rushing attack in the Nation -& fifth in the Nation in total offense in the Nation averaging 37.6 ppg, our showing wasn't that bad at all. - -held 174 yards below their average offensive output - -Strap it up for next week now
Team looked great today behind Bean! Giving him reps with 1st string and letting him know he would start appears huge now. Also, thanks to the O-Line!
@jayballer67 go win at osu….upset ou at home who got really lucky today and we just might run the table
Howard is awful so kstate game at home should be doable, the road games aren’t tough……
11-1 is right there for the taking
What about the injuries? Anything serious?
@Texas-Hawk-10 I was just repeating what they said in post game. I listened to that game on a lil radio with ear buds that plug in. I was riding a bike at genesis and I stayed on it till the end. Was a long ride, but worth it.
@Texas-Hawk-10 must not have
Bean looked great today!

There is a replay available on fox sports app. (I missed it live as well)
Anyone concerned about JD not being on the sideline and the kind of weird response from Lance about why he wasn’t?
@benshawks08 nah. The absolute worst thing for a back injury is standing around. Better use of everyone’s time to avoid all that
Any awkward hit would not be good or slap upside the head. Protect him! Besides standing.

The explanation I heard from one of the post game was it's nothing really , something just about the fact the didn't want the game to be focused on Jalen--they wanted the focus on the team that was suited and focus on Jason our QB that could play.
Don't think really anything negative about JD 6 - -or Jaason either way they just wanted the emphasis & not injury
