@BShark love the idea of it. Love the spectacle. Love the fan support. I went once as a freshmen, that was enough for me.

Butker is so money. I wish there had been a little less time on the clock at the end of the first half. I would like to have seen a 68 yard attempt.
Nostradamus I am not
But maybe it works out. Don’t need to burn much clock to score and have a one point lead at half and the ball after the half.
Bad clock management on accepting the opi
@stoptheflop or this series! 😂 long game.
@nuleafjhawk Imagine the bullets Georgia fans were sweating yesterday!

@dylans "The preseason number one team is obviously going to disappoint,"
This is precisely why I'm always relieved to see us NOT ranked #1 in the pre-season football polls.
😂 Just being ranked was an honor for this forlorn football program.
@approxinfinity This is supposed to be the height of optimism for all teams. Every team is 0-0 and full of possibilities. To throw mud on your team in the pre-season is nutzso. The preseason number one team is obviously going to disappoint, if you expect them to stay there all year lossless. But if you use it as a barometer to gauge future outcomes the outlook is very bright - I’d say far more wins than losses thru the year and what more can a reasonable fan ask for than a winning record other than health for the postseason?
@wissox They’re trying to entertain recruits and youth, not us. The entire late night thing was too far from basketball, too immature to find enjoyable even as a teenager. Now it’s just even more silly - bigger budget.
@kuballin10 You just said KU is an elite eight team with our point guard - there isn’t another one coming in. That means if they make a final four they have exceeded your expectations. Are you moving the goal posts or just lying about your expectations? Because if it’s title or disappointment you are really a miserable fan to be around. Completely unable to enjoy any victory - they’re never by enough points. Every loss is misery for your to wallow in like a pig in shit spreading it around for all. Why even watch, are you so dead inside that your fun is to ruin others enjoyment?
This HS coach is more innovative than Grimes!

Badass trick play!!!
@kuballin10 By that logic a final four will be exceeding expectations. I doubt a final four would satiate
Can we get the old guy back? Any donors in the house?
Did they lose to UNLV? Wow, haven’t checked the score yet, but the comments clear it up. Whelp, really wish I had been wrong about KU football, but damn glad I didn’t get my hopes up.
@AsadZ Significant enough to warrant a Topps Now card about it!

Nelly is out at late night, paving the way for Lil Jon.
They’ve been bringing in big names for the last few late nights. I suppose it’s more for recruiting that anything else. But clearly the budget has been expanded lately.
Series tied 1-1. Rubber match coming up!
@AsadZ I like their new coach as well. Demeco Ryans seems to have things cooking.

Last play sums the game up.
Afraid we may be in for a disappointing season. This is the downside to having expectations
I tried to poor cold water on those expectations during the offseason. KU football is always going to be KU football. Every once in a blue moon they will be respectable, the rest of the time they will absolutely suck. Hopefully this is a second respectable season in a row. They won’t sniff a bowl game of significance, but might get to play in December none the less. That is a historically good year for KU - also known as a dumpster fire of a football program.
Don’t sleep on the Dodgers
Who in the world Shakell Moore? Is all I wonder. Not enough to look it up, but it is curious that there is so much roster turnover that a name is completely foreign to someone who is in a KU basketball chat room daily. Sad state of college basketball.
@rockchalkjayhawk Caleous Campbell (sp) was cuffed too, when he tried to help Tyreek out - he should’ve just called a lawyer. My understanding is the officer has been placed on administrative leave. And here is why- dickhead cop doesn’t understand people’s rights.

@wissox How did Caleb look? He had flashes of brilliance in the pre-season.
@nuleafjhawk At yourself for having expectations or KU football for doing KU football stuff?
This is why I don’t get worked up over KU football. Over a hundred years worth of history tells us they will revert to the norm - which for KU is bad.
There is an average yards per attempt and an average yards per completion, but to be honest I never look at either. For me it’s about ~~total yards, TDs, and third down conversion percentage.~~ nah it’s about marveling over Mahomes. He’s ruined me for other sports even. Fanboy here.
Willie Gay’s athleticism is missed. Bolton got exposed.
@FarmerJayhawk …better than than that Uggo Gonzaga. But be sure to kick her out before your roommates wake up.
LFG D!!!
Punt God coming up clutch
Pacheco!
@wissox that was in larryville. I’m from sw Kansas. No Chicago influence here.
@wissox probably mostly local KU fans. Half the bars I used to frequent back (mostly O-street) in the day were chock full of Chicago co-eds.
@rockchalkjayhawk Perine
@jayballer67 lol tldr, but write a novel about a guy you don’t care about. Strange.
@jayballer67 Are you a closet Colorado Buffalo fan?
Arizona receiver McMillan had over 300 yards!

Wow, Houston has 63 new players this year. Houston doesn't look good so far against UNLV. Or UNLV is good.
Houdon = = Is Colorado. --- -Flash -Dash -- Deion has done the same thing in hi first two years and i cost him Big- - the program in so much turmoil
Colorado won one game before Deion arrived. He hasn’t hurt that program one bit. They would be getting zero attention and recruits without Deion. Not saying I approve of his style, but Colorado sucks at sports.
@dylans said in Ok guys , let's hear those predictions ? lindenwood:
45 point favorite. Will they cover? seems to be the biggest drama.
Did not cover. Dang odds makers nailed it.

@rockchalkjayhawk What a difference having a good coach with a good QB can make! Now to sustain it.
1st place!
@AsadZ Developmental first round pick trending towards bust. Hope he has a good financial adviser.
@rockchalkjayhawk I never want to see Young Joka play a meaningful snap. - pass hit his hands in the first game last year and ends up a pick six that cost the game. Lined up offsides and nullified Kelce’s lateral back to Toney touchdown - lost by a score again. This pre-season he had two penalties on one play.
It’s just hard to pass up on his potential, but his down side last year cost the Chiefs at least two games!
Then there’s Skyy Moore - he doesn’t really hurt you, but has no way to help either. I’d cut both. No upside to Skyy and too much downside to Toney. Good Toney is electric, maybe they can trade him?
- I believe the Chiefs will keep Toney since his salary is guaranteed and he has high upside. We’ll find out today!
@rockchalkjayhawk Toney is dangerous, very explosive, but also very prone to boneheaded mistakes. Two penalties on one play this preseason, too many passes hit his hands last year that the defense caught. And then there is that electric return two super bowls ago that set up the game saving drive.
This is kinda crazy - I talked to the ticket office this morning. - tier one is all the good seats, tier 2 is ok, 3 is marginal and everting else is junk - no bad seats my ass. To get into tier one would require a minimum of an $18,000!!! “donation” to the Williams fund over the $1,900 per seat ticket price. - Next year they will switch to a more upfront pricing schedule - a seat will have a price tag as opposed to making a donation and hoping you get the seat you want. That’ll maybe be better.
That pricing kinda makes me dislike KU basketball on principle. The wine and cheese crowd is ruining it for everyone that actually goes to the games to have fun as opposed to going as a status symbol. I hope the 1,000 seat they took out didn’t affect student seating.
@jayballer67 Saw the back-back-back homeruns - is right field short? Center is 408, pretty average. I see where the stadium is rated the 4th most home run friendly in the bigs.
@kuballin10 said in I got our laugh of the Season about KU football- it's out there.:
At wvu
At ksu
Win those and we got undefeated or lose 1 game at most and are in the big 12 title
I’ll believe it when I see it. Paper tigers for now.
@Crimsonorblue22 it’ll still be good to have a tune up. Might as well use it to benefit an in state school. Hopefully it continues.
