How are you all feeling today? 100% I'd bet my house on KU? Optimistic? Guardedly optimistic? Toss up? Probably will lose? The chances of beating KState are the same as @nuleafjhawk saying something good about anything relating to the kitties?
Me, if Bean can play toss up. If not we'll be in the @nuleafjhawk category.
I think it's a close game that we lose with Bean. It's an execution without him

Couldn't agree more , and yet just something - -weird feel - -might be the surprise of the year. - -Night game - - crowd juiced - -players jacked, - -Jason has a special night & yes I do think Jason will play - -Might just be a Leipold night. - -ROCK CHALK
Radio is saying Bean is out
Ugh
I'm not super duper optimistic.
Bean is starting it looks like.
KU fans have really endured a lot of QB uncertainty this year. And not much reliable information from the staff and media.
Weird, the ESPN line dropped from 10 an hour ago to 7.
If we have a healthy Daniels all year, we beat the cow chips 63 - 10
35-28 ku is my prediction
Dan stole mine so we're missing an EP and winning 34-28
Man I dunno, from just listening to Lance in pre-game - just the tone of his voice without him coming out and saying - -I get the feel Ballard starts
I'm not betting the house or anything
My thought was 31-28 KU
Grew up in Illinois near the quad cities. Left in 1985. Still hate the Hawkeyes.
Who are these guys?
I hate to say it but this announcer has a somewhat annoying voice. Who is it?
Lol
Sounds like Ron DeSantis is the color guy. Or the Rabbi from Seinfeld.
Alex Faust (play-by-play) and Petros Papadakis (analyst) will have the call
Mine was the nicest comment
14 straight losses to the purple pu$$ie$? I'm going to puke.
Petros it is
That's a venerable stadium? LOL. We love our KU but not sure I'm calling the stadium I graduated in venerable
Alex Faust (play-by-play) and Petros Papadakis (analyst)
Papadakis was a USC Trojan running back according to wikipedia
same first play I would have called
I'm already being tempted to change the channel
That was pathetic
They left us a lot of time.
Gonna have to get more pressure on Howard than that.
Not sure if that's the best way to start the game. But hey, go for it I guess
Guess I'll find a movie to watch
This gonna be a 56-10 massacre yet again
Man plain and very very simple. We have JUST GOT to have Bean if we want any chance at all
We r not scoring 10 playing like that
Yeah most schools don’t win with their 2nd or even 3rd stringer. Ballard is a freaking walk on freshman ugh… this is a 9-10 win team with a healthy qb
Good grief, it's one series. Relax folks.
Only chance we have is to run the ball effectively and hold on it but with Bean they’ll put 9 in the box
Y'all have a good evening. I'm not subjecting myself to this crap
Announcers love ksu
Dotson gets hurt every other play
I don't like the black uni's for night games in our dimly lit stadium
Wow the defense is awful
Better
Alright!
Well we stopped them at least once lol
Throw the ball
Neal gonna play?
I wonder why Neal wasn't used on the first drive. Hishaw, Hishaw, Locklin, punt.
Said he was a lil banged up
I'm sick of the short field sweeps. No one is fooled at this point.
Bla bla bla bla
Close!
🥳

❤️🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾💙💙💙🏈😍🫶🎈
Beautiful run!
Arnold with a great block too
Step up D
Looks like it's just you and me, Crimson!
showed a little fight. - -Good job guys -keep choppin wood
I never left, my wife made me go eat supper. Rock Chalk TD!!
I never quit! Haven't missed a game ever
Okay. Fresh start
I ain’t left yet but the defense has to get pressure here
were here
Yeah, I'd love to see the D get a pick or something good here to keep the big Mo
@Crimsonorblue22 Yes, basically, and it was delicious. Some new recipe which worked out well, called beginners brisket.
Need keep going with these long drives on offense tiring them. That 4th down catch was insane, guy was all over him
They punted last time! We r gonna get a pic, they r getting cocky!
This petros guy sounds like the mechanic they always talk to on cop shows who saw a shady character bring a car in and he looked nervous, like he might have capped somebody.
Trevor!
kind of surprised really they didn't go for it
@jayballer67 they are averaging 8 yards a play. Tells how much they did on that first drive.
Maybe he learned from his OT in Texas!
Hishaw is a good tough runner but if he waits for a hole that last play goes for twenty ran up his own lineman.
listening to our radio broadcast. -Hanni & Lawrene keep saying they still think we will see Bean sometime during this game
@jayballer67 interesting why if he is capable of playing, why didn’t he start?
@kjayhawks he's sturdier. Ballard!
Ballard looks pretty sharp so far
did I say that out loud oops
Just the way they drew it up
The fumblerooski can be very effective in yard gainage.
Crap!
@Crimsonorblue22 What happened to say crap?
Me saying he's sturdier
@wissox said in Beat KState! Beat KState!:
@Crimsonorblue22 What happened to say crap?
worries me that my feed is behind
Wow they rushed that play to avoid a review and it backfired.
got both feet down anyway
Wave that wheat!!
KU on top!
💙🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾❤️❤️❤️❤️🎈🏈🫶😍
saved the wide side of the field for the big play
How about that? Very unprofessional
F F S
Damn it that’s a momentum killer there
these fricken low projectory kicks crap has got to stop
@kjayhawks said in Beat KState! Beat KState!:
Damn it that’s a momentum killer there
Just got to strap it up , can't let that break ya , move on to next play
We r gonna have to put somebody back on those, cause we suck
@jayballer67 right why are we kicking an extra point 7 feet off the ground. Middle school shit
Sean Snyder
We commit too many penalties
Bryant with his first PI. Needs another to keep his per game average
Two guys of ours get tackled in the backfield on that pass. No flags.
that would have been a TD. Nice pass. Thanks.
Oh bull crap.
Horrible.
As Sherman Potter used to say, Mule Muffins
Oh man!
There's been one supposed penalty every game this year
Thanks refs.
TOTAL BULL SHIT - - - TOTAL BULLSHIT , the officials are bound and determined to give K/ STRAIGHT this game
Such a late flag!
That was a weak ass fucking flag smh
Damn it
Devin gets it almost all back. Nice run.
That wildcat with Locklin been working.
Ya'll hear Braun scored 25 yesterday?
KU with 34 penalty yds; KSU 0
I'm not saying anything good to jinx him, but Ballard has a nice touch
I knocked on wood
@approxinfinity That's why they put Hishaw at QB.
LOL, KState players pointing other direction like they were getting the ball even though it was a 3rd down play.
4 QB carries for Cole. Who the hell do they put in if Cole gets hurt?
So, Leipold will line up behind center on 3rd and 1, but not 4th and 1
Well, folks. Don't give up!
I have to run to the airport and pick up my mother (2-hr round trip), so I'll be listening to this victory on the radio.
Dang he 'bout had that anyway
They should do like the NFL. A penalty like that in the end zone has got to be placed on the 1. I mean in a way it's cheating us because he's scoring on that play no doubt.
Make the call
Ballard is tough
❤️🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾💙💙💙🏈🫶🎈😍
I love L Arnold!
@wissox said in Beat KState! Beat KState!:
Ballard is tough
Ballard stood right in there and ignored the rush to hit a wide open Arnold. Wow
found out what Coach was so pissed of about earlier on the sideline. - -On that last TD for them , they had a play where the tight end was covered up and made the other player as eneligble down field where we got called for the PI and they eventually scored
Good half. Gotta do another
Well tell you what got to give Ballard some props, he has stuck right in there and competed. - -Doesn't look like he is nervous, doesn't show anyways - tough kid. - - long , lon way to go, but really competitive 1st half for sure - - -ROCK CHALK
Go on another 7 minute drive to start this half
Keep their D on the field
Just wondering guys, do you think K/Straight wasn't taking us seriously for this game and then when they just marched right down the field on their 1st drive ? - - Long 2nd half but I like the fight
When was the last time we were ahead of these guys at the half of these games
Long long ways to go, I personally think they are lucky it isn’t 21-7.
Who needs Bean?!!
Holy cow!
Love this Andale guy
💙🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾❤️🏈🎈😍🫶🥳
Wow, I'm at a loss for words at how this game has gone.
Feel like we need to 🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾 on xtra pts too! Keep going guys😍😍😍🥳
Can’t get to excited here, wasn’t a 7 minute drive but we’ll take the 7 points
Come on D. Get us a stop
these guys are playing their hearts out
Devin Neal 3 TD's.
Step up defense
@cragarhawk They really have been!
Limping
Nice job D
Another poor kick this time on a punt giving us a shorter field.
@Crimsonorblue22 You should go see a doctor.
Oh smart guy🫶
Bet we see a change at QB pretty quick for K/Straight
@jayballer67 why?
Get a score here and they are going to get desperate
Avery is better
Heard his parents weren't happy about playing time. They retired and moved up there
Ah.. needed that
Let's go D
Oh dude, catch that!!!
Ahhh
Wow
Dropped pick 6 a momentum changer.
Fuck
Missed holding there
Defense getting tough
Urgh.
Damn that pick 6
Just not enough pressure on the KSt QB; No pressure really
It stinks because they would’ve been in huge trouble with that play being made. Looking like a 14 point swing
@kjayhawks KState been gifted a lot tonight. The missed PAT, the hold that kept their drive alive, and now the missed pick 6.
Ok, our offense been performing at a high level, need to keep it going.
Ugh. Come on d.
That dropped pick 6 may be what cost us the game. Have to make that play in this game. Just have to
That missed INT killed us
you can feel Mo changing
Great return. Great field position. Lets stun them
Nice run
Play call is getting too predictable
That’s the game folks, they caught a int and we dropped a sure fire pick 6
Ya. Not good
All K State now
Oh good grief, we're still good.
Huge
Ok that's game! Shame! On you guys!
We have to get points here, can’t run it twice in a row, they have 9 or 10 guys in the box. Gonna have to throw it.
@Crimsonorblue22 PHOF!!!
We got to get some points - mean a TD can't come away empty
Neal is speedy.
Jared Casey looks so big
Dam we can not have that
Ballard gonna get killed.
That’s text book targeting, lead with helmet. Can’t not review that???
Bad missed call there
The refs saying Balard was not an un protected play - - Targeting 100 %
@jayballer67 doesn’t not matter, can’t lead with a helmet no matter what
@kjayhawks said in Beat KState! Beat KState!:
@jayballer67 doesn’t not matter, can’t lead with a helmet no matter what
100 % targeting for sure
@kjayhawks I was thinking it looked like targeting as well. Can’t understand why that was not called. I also thought they had a late hit on Ballard when he ran out of bounds with it.
I hope LL is telling them to look at that
On an earlier play in this drive.
KState has been the beneficiary of some calls here.
How many more breaks are these guys gonna get
Need to be able to challenge in college
Way to go Defense
Whoah
Great time for a sack!!!
Man we are giving this game away
Jesus Christ guys
defense busts their ass and look what it does for us
Oh my, nothing gonna come easy in this one.
Trevor twice
Wow. Stupid
Got to have a TD here
Go D!
Trevor in his head!
Call a freaking holding ref!
We are done folks
I hate these corrupt refs.
now they are looking for horse collar against us -WTF
I just want to throw up, so many chances to win
We have given this game away
We're still winning.
More corrupt ref decisions, only 7 yards but he was out.
Welp -- -watch them tee off now
All because we can’t catch a punt 11 games into the year.
Not sure if quiting is the best defensive strategy. But okay
It is not over yet.
That’s 3 muffs this season, get his ass out of there and go back to Grimm
I've complained about refs, but dropped pick 6, dropped punt have cost us severely right now
Lots of time
He also ran 1 back
So does Ballard lead a drive into history books or does he throw another pick?
Blocked PAT means it's tied right now. We lose 1 point, they get two there, and probably just go for 1 on their previous TD.
Haven't been able to move the offense much this half sadly
This Petros dude being paid by Kstate?
Good hands
Moving
Ballard gonna have to learn to throw it away.
Casey block
Stupid Lance. Kick the FG
terrible decision -you don't take points off the board - -terrible terrible call
Well. Shit
Gotta learn to stop crapping away games.
That maybe the straw that broke the camels back. If it’s 6 inches higher, it’s 6 points. Just a freshman doing freshman stuff
you DO NOT - - DO NOT take points off the board . would of brought us within one.
The good news is KState is at the 10. Maybe we get one more stop and get another chance.
@kjayhawks said in Beat KState! Beat KState!:

I would have preferred the other one.
Just silly play call. You needed 5. Not the whole smash
I like the call to go for it with our shaky kicking game but you didn’t need 6 on that play. Skinner was open underneath
@wissox said in Beat KState! Beat KState!:

Defense is done
Salting it away now, it could be ten years before we have this chance again
Really?
This is the most frustrating KU football season since 09 we flat out gave away 3 games.
We had our chance , even with the horrible calls by the refs and INT's. - Christmas came early for these shits

We already had a PAT blocked because our line can't block and Keller's had some blocked because of low trajectory kicks. A Keller FG attempt is not guaranteed points.

Petros is totally for KState.
Honestly...the game was there for the taking. Too many mistakes though.
K-State gets every 50-50 call

Sorry, but our FG unit has been shit this year amd shouldn't be trusted.
At the end of the day, KU beat themselves 3 times this season.
Some silver linings to this dark cloud. Guaranteed winning record. Got guys coming back. We have a coach building culture of success. We beat OU for goodness sakes. I'm really hoping Lance can find the right guys to improve our defense. We just give up too many yards.
I agree with the call to go on the 4th and 5. But the play call was ass.
Let’s go get our asses beat by by 3 win Cincinnati next week. This is a loss that kills the whole season.
This as mad as I’ve ever been at KU football
I think there are more positives this season than negatives. Too many mistakes tonight are what beat us.
Has Coach LL taken us as far as he can? I hope he leaves after these last few games. Was much easier to watch us lose by 50. Than to watch us choke games away repeatedly
That was as frustrated as I've ever been watching a KU football game. It's comical how many dumb things came between us and winning.

Wow! You hope he leaves?
@Crimsonorblue22 said in Beat KState! Beat KState!:

kind of saa huh to think someone thinks that way huh
@Crimsonorblue22 100% do after tonight’s performance, Keller can’t kick PATs. That’s old news, Wilson drops pints, that’s old news.
If you're looking for a coach to blame it would be the special teams coach, Sean Snyder. This isn't on LL at all. And I thought Andy Kotelnicki called a really creative offensive game.
@kjayhawks Are you serious? Drunk? I've watched more KU football in the last 2 years than I have in a decade and more. Trust the process. There's improvement every year. How is it Lances fault that a kid drops a pick 6? Jalon Daniels and Bean injuries to boot? My goodness, he's a spectacular coach. I know it's D-3 but you don't win 6 national championships without some unique skill.
@KirkIsMyHinrich besides in the red zone yet again
@kjayhawks said in Beat KState! Beat KState!:
@KirkIsMyHinrich besides in the red zone yet again
Red zone calls were fine. We were relying on a 3rd string freshman qb to execute
Missouri. Colorado. Texas. Oklahoma. Oklahoma State. Denver Broncos. Las Vegas Raiders.
Combine all this scum together and I still like them more than I like K-State.
@nuleafjhawk Just for me can you throw Cubs into that list of hated teams?
@nuleafjhawk yep that’s why I’m so pissed, if we lost by 40 I’d be fine.
@kjayhawks kinda surprised we didn't. I saved myself a lot of stress. Didn't watch anything after our first drive, then saw the final score on my phone. If we had won, I would have watched tomorrow.
@nuleafjhawk You missed a mostly fun game....until it wasn't.
@nuleafjhawk ya I’m super bummed at this point I know im being unreasonable @jayballer67 @Crimsonorblue22 @KirkIsMyHinrich. It’s just too much to ask to beat a rival in football. 35 years old and have seen I believe 4 wins gets a little old on a guy.
@kjayhawks Glass half full - they still have to beat us ...approximately 30 more years in a row to tie the series.
And it looks like they're probably going to do that. (The glass developed a leak)
WE'RE STILL #1 IN BASKETBALL DAMMIT!
I think at this point I’m going to set up my pallbearers to be KU Football players so they can let me down one more time (lol joking). I guess it’s better than being at the stadium, watching SDSU and. Central Michigan spank us because I’ve done that.
It just sucks the costly mistakes. Definitely a winnable game even with a 3rd stringer
Doesn't mean a lot but we actually out gained them yardage wise --- - 396 - - to 331 , just to many mistakes - - dropped INT'S - blocked extra points -- muffed punts - -other fumbles-you just can't do those types of things.
still really good chance to go 8-4--- - -solid bowl game - -& most importantly extra practice to work on things and work more on our turnaround
For a decade or more we've been watching us blow games against 'mid majors' with plays like tonight and then just getting walloped by Big 12 teams. I really haven't watched KU football unless I happen upon it and get sucked in it for a minute until someone drops a pick 6 or a kick gets blocked and returned or someone muffs a punt. The difference is back then I'd turn it off and check the schedule for basketball calculating when it's going to start up. We've got something to be thankful for during thanksgiving this year, besides all the normal things like big screen smart tvs, and dumb phones, and heat and raising canes and deep dish pizza and of course Jayhawk basketball.
Hopefully we beat Cincinnati next week but I’m honestly worried. These last two losses are the ones that tear teams apart Coach LL and Co have their work cut out that’s for sure.
Ballard I would say for 85 % of this game played well - - for a former walk on true freshman -- he be a solid back up - -with more experience he will continue to learn

And yet, if the refs keep their laundry in their pocket on a 4th down play, we get the ball back and they don't score a TD on the next play or two. I know they play it differently if that call is not made, but that was a really huge call and Lance went ballistic.
...and hyperbolers hyperbole.
Guess Jason wasn't as good physically as the smoke they was blowin up our ass
@nuleafjhawk True, if you're not sure of the play. They're on the 10-20 or so, late first half, 4th down. We get a stop and a half hour later a flag comes out, PI. They get 1st down, score a TD. It was a huge call. Coulda been a difference maker.
So. Damn. Frustrating!
@Gorilla72 for sure, laying in bed my wife says you never ate dinner because you were watching the game. Just don’t feel like eating after that one.
Damn special teams has basically cost KU the OSU game, the ISU game, and tonight amd not just the FG unit although they get the biggest share of blame/grief. Also, Trevor Fucking Wilson with at least his third punt that he's muffed and given away. KSU's go ahead score came on the possession Wilson fucked up again on a punt. He should not be allowed to return a punt ever again in a KU uniform. Keep Grimm back there like they've done every other time Wilson coughs one up.
KU is close, but they have to clean up special teams to take the next step to be challengers in the Big 12, which they could easily do next year with a reliable kicking game and a returning who doesn't fumble punts with regularity.
KU's special teams unit is the reason why KU is currently 7-4 instead of 10-1 right now so that's got to be at the top of the priority list of things for Leipold to focus on this spring.
@Texas-Hawk-10 2nd
Really was hoping the streak would be broken tonight. 15 years is insane.
We are close, but not there yet.
Holy shit turds. Just done watching DVR’d game. What a tragic loss. Sad.
We just tossed that game out the window, handed them the win.
I haven’t read the thread, but I imagine the culprits have been covered.
I’m still steamed at that missed pick 6 that could have maybe iced it. Wow.
Kansas state football is posting pictures all over our field smh. Was an absolute embarrassment last night and still is this morning.
@Texas-Hawk-10 I think missed tackles were the biggest problem.
@mayjay said in Beat KState! Beat KState!:
@Texas-Hawk-10 I think missed tackles were the biggest problem.
A problem yes, but that blocked PAT and Wislon fumble are the difference in the score last night.
If KU makes that kick, it's 14-7 KU instead of 13-9. That blocked PAT is also why KSU went for 2 later on when they scored after Wilson's fumbled punt to make the game 27-22 and that successful conversion made it 27-24. There was not a made or even attempted FG by either team last night despite the score. Each team scored 4 TD's and that was it so it should have been a game going into OT tied at 28 instead of a 31-27 KSU win. Special teams miscues directly led to 10 KSU points last night. 2 from the blocked PAT they returned and 8 from the TD and 2 point conversion after Wilson's fumbled punt return.
Last night was basically a replay of the Oklahoma St. game with special teams taking points off the board for KU and being the difference in the score.
Lance said postgame that Bean was available to play but he thought it was best to go with Ballard. This is a headscratcher.
I want to beat these guys so bad.
Next year cannot come soon enough.
While this loss hurts, I am encouraged about the future.
We will beat the streak in 2024.
The fact that KU football is nationally relevant in November still fills me with awe. Winner’s perception has not set in. KU football has brought me nothing but happiness this season. I might be scared to get more deeply invested. Nice playing with house money as long as possible
If we win out we might get a pretty decent bowl game I hope.
This loss is like stepping in dog shit in your new shoes.

@Texas-Hawk-10 I think missed tackles were the biggest problem.
A problem yes, but that blocked PAT and Wislon fumble are the difference in the score last night.
If KU makes that kick, it's 14-7 KU instead of 13-9. That blocked PAT is also why KSU went for 2 later on when they scored after Wilson's fumbled punt to make the game 27-22 and that successful conversion made it 27-24. There was not a made or even attempted FG by either team last night despite the score. Each team scored 4 TD's and that was it so it should have been a game going into OT tied at 28 instead of a 31-27 KSU win. Special teams miscues directly led to 10 KSU points last night. 2 from the blocked PAT they returned and 8 from the TD and 2 point conversion after Wilson's fumbled punt return.
Last night was basically a replay of the Oklahoma St. game with special teams taking points off the board for KU and being the difference in the score.
I had the order mixed up, Wilson's fumbled led to the go ahead score. Miller's dropped pick 6 led to the TD and 2 point conversion.
Real talk it’s the worst loss in a long time for this program. I’m confused as to why Bean didn’t play but with special team’s mistakes and defenses missed opportunities. Not sure it makes a difference guess will never know

We STILL got a chance for the Season to go 9-4 - -that would be Cinn win & winning the bowl game pretty dam good
@kjayhawks believe LL said in presser that it dealt with practice reps and etc. Makes some sense. I think Ballard did a fine job overall and was not the difference as far as losing goes. 2 or 3 huge mistakes obviously make the game alot different. Nothing bigger than the dropped pick 6. That should have been all but the nail in the coffin
I’ve been pretty impressed with Ballard for the most part. He made some youthful mistakes yesterday for sure, but the future looks bright. It was late last night when I had a chance to watch, so I may have fast forwarded over his interceptions. Seems confident, poised. Were the picks his fault?
@rockchalkjayhawk Ballard played good enough to win IMO. The first pick was a silly throw, second pick Re watching it, he should tried to run but really didn’t have a ton of great options on that play call.
We don't lose w/Bean.
