Kansas was at home for the final time this year celebrating senior day vs Texas. Texas started early scoring a TD on their play from scrimmage on a 75 pass. The defense put the clamps on after that as Senior Brandon Stewart got a pick 6 to start KU scoring. They Created 4 turnovers in the second quarter, but only lead to 10 points on the board, so KU held a 10-7 lead going into the locker room. The second half started bad as Stanley thru a pick just 3 plays in that lead to a short field and easy score for Texas to take the lead 14-10. We pretty much traded punts til the fourth quarter until a costly fumble bye Quv at mid field after a 19 yard catch that left texas again with a short field and a TD. It was was half way thru the 4th when the offense which had struggled all game and being down 21-10 finally showed up. Hiebert dived into the endzone on a 80 yard drive engineered by Stanley, then steven sims ran in a 2 point conversion to put KU back to with in 3, 21-18. The Kansas defense once again came up huge with 58 seconds left stopping Texas on a 4th and 5, and man this defense played unbelievable most of the day 6 turnovers, 4 sacks and 8 TFLs. The offense worked its magic as Stanley started the drive off with a 21 yard scrabble, aided by a Texas late hit. Matt Wyman tied the game with 7 seconds to go on a 35 yard FG. Then came overtime with Kansas winning the toss and going on defense first. A bright young freshman DB Mike Lee intercepted Texas to end their possession. With Kansas knowing they needed only 3 to win Senior RB Kinner held on to the ball and took us to the 3. A false start moved us back to the 8 but it didn't matter nor did the attempt to ice Wyman bye the Texas staff, his kick sailed thru the up rights and WE BEAT TEXAS for the first time in 78 years. Just unbelievable guys, other than winning the orange bowl and NC in 08 idk if I have ever teared up after a game and seeing coach Beaty's emotion after the game, it just moved me on how hard these guys are trying to win. A wise man once told me that sometimes the team that loses works a lot harder than the team that wins and I think that's been the case for much of this year. I'm really speech less on how proud I am of these young men that flatout play their asses off every stinkin week, I love the fight they have, proud to be a KU Football fan. RCJH.
@Texas-Hawk-10 Good call buddy and yes for the better of KU football lol
@jayballer54 I dam near came up but had to help my father in law move some furniture, mistake lol
What a week to be a Jayhawk brothers. Beat the #1 team in the land Tuesday, Saturday Volleyball wins their first B12 title ever, Football win vs texas for first time since 1938.
it actually was 1938 the last win vs Texas no 1935 lol my bad
Will they leave Charlie in Lawrence?
Thanks to all my football homies on here that I vent with we got solid win today, this why we are here
@stoptheflop I was nearly crying when it went in
Yes Yes I love these players playing hard every week
Wow good game
that has to be caught, you have both hands on it.
YES YES big fumble
Defense looks tired as hell, must get a stop or hold them to 3
Good drive, come on Defense
Sims Dances too much
@Kcmatt7 Yes SZ must tell him he'll be fired immediately if he doesn't hire an OC this off season.
@Kcmatt7 I believe in giving a guy 3 years because of the state the program is in but if we don't win atleast 3 maybe 4 next year id pull the trigger. At this point with how much better the Defense looks we made a mistake not naming Bowen HC.
@Kcmatt7 Ya when you cant make plays that 5th graders can, what do you do at practice? Drinking beer?
I hope Quv doesn't play again terrible terrible he has killed all year!! Drops wide open TD vs TCU and muffs 2 punts vs OHIO, NEVER NEVER should he see the F**kin field.
@BShark As did TCU
Big stop there and missed FG keeps our heart beat faint but there.
Weak ass PI and game
I give props to Bowen id be in beatys face about this piss poor offense. With an Average O we have 3 or 4 wins
Missed easy throw there. Have to pull him he's the same as Cozart cant throw it more than 6 yards
@BShark Ya bet he does aswell which stinks but maybe it don't matter
@Kcmatt7 Yes, you have to do something besides a double reverse, which lost 13 yards lol. WR pass heck anything down the field
@Kcmatt7 I'd put in Willis, he has the best arm strength to test them down the field if the defense doesn't get more TOs we will end up getting smoked by 20
Start we didn't need to this half could be the game.
What scares me is our offensive has not taken advantage of these give aways, we will have to get something going on that side to hold on
Quv has to stop taking punts already cost us one win
I tell you what this defense baring the first play have played their asses off
@BShark Good bye Kliff
@Kcmatt7 Yes pick 6 bye Brandon stewart, if the o could just get going
@BShark was just getting ready to post. Yes, F**K yes we have finally got over hump after finishing second to Texas for 4 straight years. Hopefully we can beat Baylor and win it out right but great job ladies, nice to send our seniors the right way today.
@wissox I'd say LL played okay, not great but I like the 5 blocks forsure. My main issue going forward is as you say 3 point defense and keeping opposing guards outta the lane. I'm not worried about our 3s on offense just yet, I think we will break out and shoot the lights out with in the next few games. I think the same issue of not having a low post scorer hurt last year and will again this year. I know Perry is being missed and rightfully so he was a 4 year player but I didn't really see him as a low post scorer, got most of his from the Ft line, jumpers and dribble drive from the top of the key, etc. Since Joel has been gone IMO we haven't had that guy down to throw it in to and make the defense pay.
@jayballer54 We just have to get who we can and do the best we can. I think the ship has sailed on Cozart. But I'm not sure on Willis , he just doesn't look as good as he did last year no telling how far back that wrist sent him. Stanley is similar to Cozart in the aspect that he cant throw the long ball. Hopefully the Starks kid is really benefiting from his red shirt year and developing into what Beaty wants under center.
@Red.Rooster Prayers for you and your wife friend
UNI beat OU in OT 73-67 ouch
How about DG 9 assist and 0 turnovers
@BShark Wonder what he did?
@KUSTEVE 82% of the time it works every time!

For the first time in to long "Ladies and Gentleman, Welcome to the University of Kansas and to Allen Fieldhouse, Home of your Jayhawks". This game could stay interesting for a half or so, the line sets at 23 currently. I say Mason continues his legendary start to the season and JJ gets going early, Bragg gets his swagger back after hitting back to back 3s. Tyler Self scores late on a runner. Kansas 86 Siena 62.
I think maybe after my last few predictions I should go buy a lottery ticket lol
Told you self would play and score loll
Some defensive slides are in order tomorrow
I feel like Frank could jump over the average size guy
Time to put on the clamps
Icy from 3 land
Mason has some hops fellas
@Lulufulu sure if tonights prediction is good lol
hes a jayhawk!!! for now at least
