Which meltdown? Temperature at kickoff is 106° in Tempe.

im lauren sizzzler snd its friggin hot yall

Good hit

Defense picked up right where they left off

QB seems to be able to run all day.

@approxinfinity scouting report says they can’t pass for nothing. Sure didn’t look that way, we had best find a way to get pressure or it’s gonna be a long night l:

Great start for the offense so far

Solid drive best drive by JD this season, had a couple of nice throws and good runs

Wave that wheat!

Only shaky play was that pass to Grimm and Grimm saved the drive. JD did a great job sensing and evading pressure

As usual our defense looks like crap.

Can we contain the QB runs and let them throw it?

Can we please spy the QB?

I'll keep my eyes on him for ya

Here we gooooo

That the way ASU gonna play? That was a little bit dirty there.

These announcers make me miss Bill Walton.

@approxinfinity I do miss Bill Walton.

It was, but KU shouldn't have had anyone within 10 yards of the ball at that point.

@wissox i will take incredibly random colorful stories over stupid commentary, no doubt.

Oh, I normally don't write this but go Royals!

Good job defense.

Punters name is Kanyon.

Remember a few weeks ago when I was screaming for Neal to be more involved in the passing game?

Neal already caught 4 passes. Seems to be a thing in this game. Not sure what to make of it.

@kjayhawks I remember you screaming but not about that!

@wissox it’s very smart, he’s our best player so we need him to have the ball more, then when they adjust you go to Grimm.

JD looks much sharper. Really like the gameplan so far.

Maybe Grimes been reading the Bucket

@wissox many silly names in Arizona.

Wearing the whites in this heat seems an advantage

That's the Jalon of old.

Bang!

First game ever vs ASU but we did beat Minnesota in the insight bowl 08 here

Must have been a fun week of practice for the running backs practicing all of these new pass plays. I like it!

Wave that wheat!!!

They are stuffing the run but leaving the edges open in the passing game for the taking

Keep doing what we are doing! Those runs might open up if they try to adjust 2nd half.

Nice long drives too. The runs will be there later when we wear them down in the heat

In other good news, Missouri got beat like they stole something today

I've heard ASU fans are amongst the worst in the country.

@kjayhawks There were some really bad calls that went against them including an AM guy pushing a ref (not intentionally, but he was trying to push another guy) and not getting flagged.

We seem to be trying so hard for a strip it’s giving them yards

“Are we back in the 90s? Skattebo is just losing his mind on the sidelines. High energy guy”

Cocaine’s a helluva drug.

Nice stop!

Special teams!

That coach may have been saved by the penalty. Oh wow, blocked!!

Yeah!

Special teams wants in on the party

Playing with joy and intensity. Good shit boys.

Everything we want this year is still out there for us. LFG

Really big downside of having games in swing states. Campaign ads during games 🤢

Theyre eating the dogs. Theyre eating the cats. Theyre paying for prisoners sex changes. Does he sound insane? Thats because he is.

Wow! This offense has some wrinkles!

Wilson's got to make the 1st down there.

Grimes must hate Casey, and he also must not know how much KU fans love to see Casey involved in the offense.

JDs first big miss hopefully he shakes it off. He has had a good drive or two in most games then one bad play turns into a dozen.

@wissox said in ASU game - KU’s Conference Win Streak Starts Here:

Grimes must hate Casey, and he also must not know how much KU fans love to see Casey involved in the offense.

Exactly. I was thinking get it to Casey. He'll get the first down. Nope.

I like the hard hits by the defense, anyway

Nice!

@approxinfinity they have given up chunks but stood strong on 3rd down

Crap.

That was fun to watch even if it burned us.

Royals losing now in bottom of 7

Not a fan of the two minute timeout

ASU is about to capitalize on our "give up a TD in the last minute of the first half" special

2nd half adjustment is to get the run game going. Only 59 yards gained and Jalon has almost half of those yards.

I missed the first couple drives. Does KU receive to start the second half?

BALL

finally got a strip!

Dude! Defense coming correct after special teams let down put em back on field!

Been trying all night

Looks like a frat boy coaching that team

Daniel's throwing form is trash

Can we blame Grimes for that failure too?

They call him mellow yellow! Going back and forth, pitching sucks!

@wissox ya they have been stuffing the run pretty consistently, needed to try to throw for that one.

Crappy punt. Get some air under it.

Another block in the back missed on a big punt return

Jayhawks very accomodating here trying to let them tie this up.

They have a kicker whom we blocked today dude.

Defense being asked to dig deep

That’s soft

Horse hockey

Weak shit

lame call, ref

That wasn’t close to PI the ball was 5 yards too far to being with.

Thanks refs

Stupid, cobee

gotta a problem at the end of the halves, coach

@Jhawk69 said in ASU game - KU’s Conference Win Streak Starts Here:

There you go!

Thanks Cobee

Jesus started with a asinine play call on offense and two penalties on defense smh

two PI calls on throws that weren't likely even catchable. Argh.

The announcers and refs seem to have very low IQ

Didnt want to take a shot at scorng? Why?

Am I right? KU has given up a touchdown in every game in the last 2 minutes of the 1st half?

@approxinfinity said in ASU game - KU’s Conference Win Streak Starts Here:

Didnt want to take a shot at scorng? Why?

nothing good happens at the end of the half

@approxinfinity right may as well threw it up for grabs at that point

We had a timeout right? Throw it deep.

Is Lawrence Arnold hurt?

@Gorilla72 said in ASU game - KU’s Conference Win Streak Starts Here:

All but 1 game.

@approxinfinity said in ASU game - KU’s Conference Win Streak Starts Here:

After that botched kick return, kneeling it was the right call.

Wheeler still out?

Yep. Own 33 is too far back to make much hay

@Crimsonorblue22 yep, traveled but isn’t playing

@FarmerJayhawk which one? LA or wheeler?

@Crimsonorblue22 Wheeler. LJ is fine

@FarmerJayhawk why isn't he playing? He was our best receiver last yr.

U meant LA?

@Gorilla72 Yes. The only "game" we didn't was vs Lindenwood.

We need to go get 7 to start this half

@wissox inevitable

@kjayhawks We always score a touchdown to start the second half. The problem is our offense stops after that

@Crimsonorblue22 he’s out there

I also remember saying stuff about rolling JD out. You don’t have to be a genius to be a OC.

You're a genuine, @kjayhawks !

JD found a Time Machine

@DanR lmao I fixed it damn phones think they are smart

JD needs to ditch the face screen

Clear targeting

head to the face. We had guys kicked out for less than that

All the crappy targeting calls… this is easy.

Why is this taking so long? Clearly targeting

seemed like a TD too

If JD kept the ball, TD.

@patoh3 yep wrong read there

Dang it bad read by JD and a missed open guy

I’m an old wishbone guy so I’m biased but dang run the football

Daniel seems to be having trouble not throwing lasers. Doesnt bode well for plays like that.

Surprised that drive only took 5 minutes

How a struggling team messes up a surefire TD drive.

@wissox worst part is if Skinner didn’t get a cheap shot it’s 6

If Grimes is giving up on the run this game is not going to go well

Skattebo shaking his head like a nervous tick.

Cobee is a dumb shit

That was bad flop

Acting too

Stop doing stupid shit Cobee, that's 40 yards in penalties tonight now.

It was def a flop but dont put yourself in that position

Smart

Skattebo has coke for everyone

Yesssss!

That helps

Jermaine Dye is that kids dad?

I’ll agree Cobee wasn’t smart there but that’s likely the weakest late hit I’ve ever seen. People complaining about the chiefs calls would have an aneurysm if that happened

Nice. Pretty sure he had a knee in the endzone. announcers are crap

@approxinfinity yep, we’ve got both Dye brothers

Keep trying to run and wear these guys out

What was that play call?

@kjayhawks throwing it on second down about made me chuck my beer

Daniels almost escaped.

@FarmerJayhawk like I said JD has looked bad again 3 for his last 11, gain 6 yards with a run on first down. Get out of the shadow of your own end zone here. Smh it’s just not that hard to make common sense calls offensively.

Every team we play seems to have several gadget plays and better pre snap eye candy

Is Skattebo tweaking?

Hold please

I told you Skattebo tweaked out

I think everyone was holding

that backwards pass option seems like a dumb play, IMO. Got them 1 extra yard though

@approxinfinity I thought he had a stinger the 1st time I saw him do that.

Not across

@approxinfinity Yes and announcers don't know that he was world series MVP for the White Sox.

Maybe Skattebo has Tourettes or something

Nope, def coke.

That was a very very healthy spot there was short

Had to clear his blown out sinuses after that run

Touchdown!

Thought theyd give it to him.

The nightmare of quarters is about to begin.

Another very healthy spot apparently you can roll for a first down

Lance looks more like Jeff Bridges as the season progresses.

My 9 year old just said they keep moving the ball forward for them, went back the last 4 plays and every time it’s a yard or a half yard for them ahead of where they are clearly down.

Actually maybe Lance looks more like Boomhauer

We are at the point where we get jobbed by the refs after not destroying our opponent when we had the chance

Another 4th Q lead in a game we will lose. 🙃

Wisconsin fans will tell you about an infamous game at Tempe about 20 years ago. Never forget. Maybe these are those refs.

That was pretty easy lol

I hope we get the dumb LED lights at new memorial stadium. To make it exciting.

@wissox the refs ain’t the reason we are losing but they definitely had some head scratching calls and of course all of those calls went ASUs way. I don’t get how every iffy call has gone against us since 2009. We have enough trouble with football as it is.

Thanks for telling us what we already knew. @kjayhawks Oh I know, I was just reflecting the current mood here.

Jalon has had a good half announcer, but his 3rd was dreadful.

Skattebo gets his coke from coach, pretty sure.

ASU is a real big coke school

Bailed out. I’ll take it

Mind boggling

Makeup call but we'll accept the penalty

worse bump before the catch

Wow minnesoda groundsquirrels about to beat usc.

Wave that wheat!!

Nicely done!

Well knock me over with a feather running it works

Good drive after the penalty

@wissox 🌾🌾🌾🌾💙❤️🫶

Great now we got another 4th quarter lead to blow

Nice call

@Crimsonorblue22 we have been missing that.

@wissox said in ASU game - KU’s Conference Win Streak Starts Here:

Great now we got another 4th quarter lead to blow

we already blew the 4th quarter lead!

I'm so giddy I'm gonna rec the next 10 comments.

@FarmerJayhawk yep we just said they are wearing down been on the field all half. I honestly think I’d be a better OC than Grimes with zero experience. If you told me this was his first year coaching I’d a 100 percent believe. Either way glad to have the 6

I'm REALLY good at calling plays after the play is over

Gawd that counter was sexy

That was a good call, I have to admit.

It’s more common than people think; if I wanted a gram of cocaine, I can get it delivered to me within half an hour,” said Michael Grey*, a UA student. “In fact, I’ve never gone to a person’s house to get the drug. I’ve actually only had it delivered. That’s how socially available it is.”

Piqued my interest.

@DanR we all are for sure hahaha

Good work devon dye

We really stink against running QBs , so close to another pick

Got him that time!

Oj a sr?

Burroughs nice!

@kjayhawks We've faced some really good ones this year however.

Fans chanting “fuck ku” all on coke too.

@Crimsonorblue22 yep

Twitter all over replay officials givng yankees a safe on a stolen base when the guy was clearly out. Did that matter in the outcome?

Yep!

@approxinfinity I heard they was chanting “no talent pu**y to JD in pregame

Bullshit on that, nobody here would be anywhere close to a P4 level coordinator because there is so much more that goes into that job than play calling.

@kjayhawks i appreciate that. Seems to have fired him up.

Speaking of pounding the rock…

@Texas-Hawk-10 that’s probably true but I’d take my chances against Grimes any day.

@Texas-Hawk-10 Did you really think he was serious?

Cobee do something good here pls

Get a stop!

Holding offense 5 yards repeat 3rd

@approxinfinity uhhh he’s out

Faaaak

Let’s go score again, plenty of time Grimes we don’t need to abandoned the run.

@approxinfinity they threw to his side

@wissox said in ASU game - KU’s Conference Win Streak Starts Here:

@Texas-Hawk-10 Did you really think he was serious?

As much as he complains about Grimes and his response, yes. @kjayhawks hatred of Grimes is on par with another person's hatred of Dejuan Harris.

Well. My thoughts that we would stop them and get the ball back and go three and out before they score, then have time for JD to throw a pick or fumble with 20 seonds left was WAY off.

LET'S GO. Break this stupid cycle.

@DanR Script is different tonight. It is a night game after all.

Mizzou lost by 30. Lol.

Jesus

Throw the whole team out. Throw the coach out. Throw AZ's electoral votes out.

Cheap shit. Thanks tho

Not the worst, honestly

Sure give us 15 more

On a second look, give him the boot

Helmet to helmet again and should be done.

He put his helmet down and led with the crown.

Gotta make this BS count. Let's GO.

Dirty

!coke ↗

These are some dirty MFers

Our rbs just look slow tonight.

Short side

Run the option to the wide side of the field.

Way to fight for it!

Oooooooooo mmmmmmmm ggggggggg

Dude can follow blocks

🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾💙❤️🫶

Announcer just said we want to get the TD. Thanks!

Hell of a catch

More like BFF Skinner amirite?

That’s close may have hit the ground

I didn't realize Skinner had such a beautiful head of hair

Helluva throw though

Needs a root touch up

I don’t think you can overturn that is so close but you know it will go against us

No way they can overturn it.

full speed that's a catch 99/100 calls

Lets go D!

Mello pick let’s get it

waiting waiting! TD!!!

Shut these dirty mouthy SOBs down

Kick it in play and make them waste the 2:00 minute timeout right off.

"One of the most exciting conferences in the nation". Aren't there like 3 left?

SEC top teams having a rough day. 'Cause they are average despite the pre-season rankings

Any updates on Co B?

@DanR SEC and B12 seem to be hell bent on kickin the crap out of each other.

Need an interception, a fumble, a sack, or a bunch of penalties on ASU.

Ya I’m little worried about the defense right now

Oh jeez

Hey can we watch the game and not idiot selfies?

Well best we can hope for is OT now

ASU kicker seems sus, so who knows

Said he kicked 50 yders before game ugh

@DanR they way they are moving may not need him

@Crimsonorblue22 said in ASU game - KU’s Conference Win Streak Starts Here:

Said he kicked 50 yders before game ugh

got one blocked and an extra point off the pole. let me dream

Shoulda let them score a minute ago.

@wissox

Or maybe not.

Miracle please

Smh I have no faith in us

I’m not even mad, just sad

Hey. We played much better imo.

Well I guess we can at least blame the defense the last two weeks.

@FarmerJayhawk said in ASU game - KU’s Conference Win Streak Starts Here:

I’m not even mad, just sad

me too

Oh well, at least we competed. never thought we'd be back to the moral victories phase of fandom but here we are.

Still time for a JD last play interception

Ya I think we all are passed being mad I was worried we scored too soon. We are literally like 6 plays from being undefeated but I think this is the end of any last gasp we had for a bowl game

NOT OVER

This team is so close. It just wasn’t supposed to be this kind of season…

Can get another to sideline

Last play mode here, JD

I think I hate the team that played so dirty ended up winning.

Yeah. F ASU. Good fight by our guys.

At least we got to see the hail mary for once.

Rock Chalk.

Reset over the bye. Let’s go bowling.

Our defense deserves the same amount of heat as Grimes if not more so. Refusing to get a defensive stop on 3rd down and giving up 21 4th quarter points is a hell of a losing formula

The last 5 minutes of each half continue to cripple us

I remember as a KU fan that 2.5 years ago we came back from 16 points and won a national championship. Sorry but it keeps me going through every miserable football season. Yes. ASU had a cheap shot that cost us a TD. But our defense got gashed by these guys and finger pointing can now look at the DC

Co B killed us!

@FarmerJayhawk don’t set yourself for that heart break man. This team likely ain’t winning another game as @nuleafjhawk said. Maybe the world goes back to normal with KU stinking in football again.

Jalon had a good game

@kjayhawks oh we’re going to win more. Things will break the other way for us at some point. Really sucks when we had to have it, our two best defensive players were out. Just that kind of year.

@FarmerJayhawk you think it bothers them not playing at home?

@Crimsonorblue22 I really don’t. They stay in KC the night before home games even when they play in LFK.

@Crimsonorblue22 that’s a positive, the offense looked pretty good much of the night. The game was won by the better team in the trenches which happens often at this level. We had very little penetration up front, several times they got offensive lineman on our linebackers. Thats a recipe for disaster in any football game. The biggest issue with the offense was the first and goal from the five only got 3 points. They also had zero points off of two turnovers. The defense was just plain bad 2 turnovers were really the only bright spots.

Ya Borland butt ought to be smokin. - -You know it's sad but it's true I had absolutely no doubt in my mind that ASU was going to go right down the field and score, the Defense was an absolute joke. they couldn't stop a runny nose. It's sad when you can predict. - -I think quite possible you see both DC & OC coordinator replaced after the Season

There are TWO MAJOR things that's gonna come from this Season - -# one - -it's gonna be a rel bitch to try and get Alum to fund more for the Stadium when you put this kind of product o the filed AND your recruiting is going to take a step back

@jayballer67 I’ll give Brian a little bit of a break in the defense because they have played good enough to win every game but the last 2. That’s dealing with some key injuries and only having 5 returning starters. The defense looked better when healthy IMO.

Co B hurt us!

@kjayhawks yup. They are REALLY thin right now. Wheeler is out, Brantley is out, (so that’s 2 of your top 5 LBs), Dye is banged up, Cobee was hurt late. We were playing freshmen out there in the 4th

@Crimsonorblue22 I agree Cobee had a bad game and some mental errors but 2 of his penalties were pure garbage IMO. He as a senior has to be much smarter than he was. Oddly enough if they called Qs catch incomplete we prob use another minute and win the game. We are back to every thing that can go wrong will for us.

I'd have called them.

Stop making excuses for Borland. His unit has been handed a late lead in all but 1 loss and can't hold and hasn’t any of them. At some point, Borland and the defense have to be held accountable for their shit play to end the first half and inability to hold late leads.

None of the calls on Cobee were bad. The PI probably could've been a hold instead, but it's still an automatic first down either way. He's committed so many stupid penalties this season that he's a liability at times for KU.

@Texas-Hawk-10 you are certainly entitled to you own on opinion on the matter. On the hold if you watch it the receiver grabs Cobee first and they hand fight it happens on almost every pass play and they had let it go to that point on both sides. Then the late hit where the guy flops a second and a half after barely barely being pushed with one hand. We can use a little bit of common sense looking at Cobee’s size and sniff out it wasn’t Shaq pushing him. You seem to be mad at anyone that calls out Grimes on here. Yes the great OC that’s now 2-18 vs FBS in his last 20 games as an OC. What competent Coach that was fired from Baylor apparently unjustly in his greatness.

@FarmerJayhawk said in ASU game - KU’s Conference Win Streak Starts Here:

I’m not even mad, just sad

Inevitable, right?

@kjayhawks Hear me out on this in regards to Cobee pushing the guy because it's a very radical idea that I don't think has ever been tried before, DON'T FUCKING TOUCH AN OPPONENT WHEN HE'S OUT OF BOUNDS!!! It was a stupid fucking play and Bryant has cost KU several times on drives this year because of not controlling his emotions.

At what point does the defense get any of the blame for KU being 1-5 now? In the least 2 minutes of a half, KU has been outscored 62-7 this season. The defense is directly responsible for giving up 55 of those points. How many fucking times can the offense put the defense in a position to win the game before the blame for these losses shifts to the defense? KU has led with 2 minutes left in 3 of the 5 losses. At some point, Borland and defense need to be held accountable for not being able to keep the opponents out of the endzone at the end of halves.

This doesn't absolve the offense of their share of the blame because Daniels and Grimes get the majority for the Illinois and TCU games because they were both bad in those games.

Can anyone realistically say the defense doesn't deserve the majority of the blame for the losses to UNLV, WVU and tonight?

@Texas-Hawk-10 I think the defense is mostly to blame for last nights loss. I just don’t get how you get so pissy when a coach’s is from Texas that has struggled and gets called out. Cobee without question should’ve been smart enough not do that tho I see more physicality at my daughters ballet lessons. Watch a couple of Grimms catches on the sidelines and tell me he isn’t shoved several yards out of bounds considerably harder. It was silly mistake and an even sillier penalty. If you are going to throw penalties for hand fighting they probably missed at least 50 penalties last night. The inconsistency is the issue there, the commentators said the exact same thing. Several plays they let that go so I guess I’m at least not the only blind idiot. As stated the defense has several starters out due to injuries and returned only 5 guys. If you would remove your face from Grimes groin area. You would see that this team has one the best WR and RB rooms in the conference with a line that is rated top 5 in the same conference by PFF. Every talking head locally and nationally has talked of Grimes stupidity this year. But once again everyone is stupid but @Texas-Hawk-10. Grimes is a god and we are lucky to have him.

Cool, Jeff Grimes is 100% to blame for KU being 1-5 and I apparently can't take his dick out of my mouth because I don’t think he has any part in KU being 1-5 this year. It's also apparently Jeff Grimes fault that the defense has given up 55 points in the last 2 minutes of halves this season. It's also Jeff Grimes fault when he passes late in games when they were actually running plays.

The defense has zero blame on them for anything this season because @kjayhawks says the refs are biased against KU, the defense lost a couple of starters, and KU didn't run the ball enough.

Did I sum that up right @kjayhawks?

It couldn't possibly be that Jeff Grimes is only part of the issue could it? No possible way that Daniels shitty play led to opposing defenses loading up against the run therefore limiting play calling options because Daniels would either take a sack and fumble or stare down Grimm and throw a pick. No possibility of Andy Borland taking any blame for his defense giving up 55 points in the last two minutes of a half including TD's right before the half in 4 straight games. No possibility of Borland's defense taking any blame for blowing an 11 point lead with 3 minutes left.

No possibility any of the above has contributed to KU being 1-5 because according to @kjayhawks, Jeff Grimes is the worst OC ever and I can't get enough of sucking his dick since he's the real football expert here.

@Texas-Hawk-10 hahaha I can’t stop laughing now no way you typed that without laughing yourself. This is why I enjoy you so much my friend.

@Texas-Hawk-10 dude, your solid points lose credibility when they are woven into a tapestry of dick sucking.

Skattebos explanation of head shakes: Twitter just thought I should address the head shakes during the game lol . During the game I sweat and it causes my face to be wet. While my sweat drys on my face it causes my pads on the inside of my helmet to stick to my cheeks. If I had a head injury I would address it.

Sorry have to disagree. This defense can not protect a lead-- -All of these we have had leads late in the 1st half or late in the 4th quarter and the defense collaspe. -- I agree YES they have played for the most part pretty decent in the Middle qtrs, BUT come crunch time they fold. I KNEW with 2:04 left or around there we were cooked. We hadn't stopped them all night. Like the KU broadcast was sayin ASU had been on our side of the field most of the night.- their RB was making us look silly , flat running over our DB'S.

As far as injuries again we actually have been pretty dam clean - up until during the game last night , -Really the only one has been Weehler- -missed him a lot these last couple of games. -then we lost the Mamba last night but after his bonehead move during the game was so un called for - -anyways .

I however WILL say one little side note. I thought ASU has some really dirty players -- cheap shots , could of gotten people hurt really bad.-- I thought Coach L was gonna have a cardiac on the latte hit on JD -totally uncalled for

Anybody know why Grimes had JD rolling out to his left so much? I can't imagine that's a good way to get a struggling QB in sync. That's a body contortion and tough on accuracy.

@rockchalkjayhawk JD is better on the run IMO, I liked most of the play calls last night. Usually on a roll out the QB is given more time to throw and had better vision of where he is throwing. JD has struggled seeing linebackers and underneath coverage in the pocket. That has led to many of his picks.

LOL. This thread got entertaining.

I have another possible explanation for sluggish ends of halves: conditioning/lack of quality depth?

@DanR we have gone 3 and out several times like right at the worst time. And then our 2-min D just sucks. Too lax.

It could be conditioning in the 4th, but the issues in the 2nd half feel like poor coaching/game management.

At the same time I think JD threw 2 awful picks for two of these scores. I know he did UNLV, but I thought he did Illinois as well but my brain is fuzzy on that.

One thing that is pissing me off defensively though is WHERE TF IS THE SPY? Why do we just let QBs get one read and then just tuck and run? The next 3 weeks we will see mobile guys. Needs addressed (needed addressed two weeks ago).

Honestly, every week it is just a new thing with this squad. Hoping the bye week gives the coaches time to get their shit together. I hope they gave the players a few days to be college kids and get some frustration out. A resounding win against Houston and going into Manhattan with a chip on our shoulders could be fun.

At this point our job is just to ruin seasons. Play mad. Play ballsy (enough conservative endings to halves and FGs).

Did anyone notice who the coach was that came out on the field with Leipold when he went bananas after the cheap shot against Daniels? He was trying to keep Lance from getting a penalty.

Ya I mentioned the same thing earlier, where in the hell is our spy ?---- Is Borland using one ?- - if NO then WHY THE HELL NOT ? - - All these opposition are doing is dropping back three, four steps give time for the play to unfold , let the defense drop back in coverage and then the QB just takes off and nothing but green wide open space, most of the time this happens on critical third down and sufficient yardage to go. - - -I'm so sick and tired of being sick and tired.

This all falls on Borland being the DC, he has had a major role in this Season also- - -not just Grimes. Let's see dude your defensive Scheme IS NOT WORKING. i MEAN DAM-- IF IT'S NOT WORKING then you got to switch your scheme. Like ummm oh I don't know ---first how about using a FRICKEN SPY on these mobile QB's that are just kickin our ass on QB draws- --geez. - -Oh by the way just a little something I found out- - -between the last four minutes of the first half and the first four minutes of the second half - KU has been outscored by THIRTY EIGHT POINTS on the Season- - Hello Borland do you mind if it's not to much trouble, fix your fricken defense -there are NO excuses for that kind of showing
