@jayballer67 It's because their uniforms were red and not burnt orange

@focojayhawk We could probably use a good big man douche. Can he grit his teeth and yell? Can he dunk the ball? - one hand or two is fine. Can he take a charge? Can he intimidate the opponent? I'll nickname him right now - Massengill.
@wissox my wife and I were watching in Vegas. It was fantastic. Most of the people there were cheering for KU!
@wissox you're going to have to answer these questions since you're the one making them up.
@DanR It's a different world than what I grew up in. Back in the day - NOBODY transferred. You gave a college your word, they gave you a scholarship and you were married to each other for the next four years.
I am ........97% less enthused about college sports than I was 20 years (longer, actually) ago. It's a circus.
@wissox Of course I'm not saying that. I'm saying that someone said something about LL leaving and taking his star QB with him. He's not a star. He's just not. Like i said, he has star potential. Believe me, i'm sorry that he's hurt and sorry that he's not playing. If he were healthy we'd probably be 6-1 right now and we'd have a good chance at finishing the season with 2 losses. Mahomes could be our QB and we're not beating Texas or Oklahoma.
@wissox Well, I was referring to the QB, not the coach. The coach - who knows? I mean, he's at Kansas. That's about all I have there.
The QB - not a star. A great young man with star POTENTIAL, but you don't write your way into the record books sitting on the bench. Or wherever he sits during our games.
@jayballer67 You know what I'm going to say next, right?
@jayballer67 which star QB are you referring to?
@jayballer67 You're welcome. I should have saved some of it to pay off the refs. You know, like OSU did.
@jayballer67 Hold the phones - our defense made HUGE progress after giving up 700 yards to Texas🙄
@wissox Yeah. Something like that.
@wissox it was the 26 or 29 - something crazy deep in their own territory.
@KirkIsMyHinrich They looked like they were trying to me. Trying to lose! 4th and long on your own 26 with 13 minutes to go??? Genius play calling Coach K. Love it!
@rcjhdraft Wait. I'm 65 and I could run circles around him. Today.
@Texas-Hawk-10 Thanks!
Looks like I picked a good game to miss. I wondered why the score was so lopsided. I wonder what's really going on with Daniels? "Back tightness" can be fixed pretty quickly with a good chiropractor and/or masseuse. Hope we don't tank the next several games like last year.
@wissox they're leaving early to go study
@dylans - another one that I would have liked to have played at an anniversary dance or something - except for the first line, which I never understood.
ORLEANS - Still The One
(not the entire song)
We've been together since way back when
Sometimes I never wanna see you again
But I want you to know, after all these years
You're still the one I want whisperin' in my ear
You're still the one I wanna talk to in bed
Still the one that turns my head
We're still having fun and you're still the one
I looked at your face every day
But I never saw it 'til I went away
When winter came, I just wanted to go (wanted to go)
Deep in the desert, I longed for the snow
You're still the one that makes me laugh
Still the one that's my better half
We're still having fun and you're still the one
You're still the one that makes me strong
Still the one I wanna take along
We're still having fun and you're still the one (yes, you are)
@dylans Lol - I've thought the same thing for years. Kind of a weird message to send to the world.
Pina coladas and getting caught in the rain.
@benshawks08 And we beat a BYU team that has been to a Bowl Game 17 out of the last 18 years.
@RockkChalkk For sure they're looking ahead to OU. Plus, they're a little overrated. I've seen 3 or 4 teams out there that could manhandle them. They're rated #3 because of the name across their jersey - very similar to how we're always ranked very high in basketball because of the Kansas name (except we usually deserve our ranking).
I'm not predicting a win for us. But I'm not predicting a loss either.
@wissox I guess I should have stated "generally" we have played them well the past few years.
2016 - KU 24 - UT 21 W
2017 - KU 27 - UT 42 L
2018 - KU 17 - UT 24 L
2019 - KU 48 - UT 50 L
2021 - KU 57 - UT 56 W
That's playing them closer than most people would have expected.
It could be said that K-State has played them closely during that time frame as well. Except K-state lost every game.
2017 - UT 40 - KSU 34
2018 - UT 19 - KSU 14
2019 - UT 27 - KSU 24
2020 - UT 69 - KSU 31
2021 - UT 22 - KSU 17
2022 - UT 34 - KSU 27
@MoonwalkMafia I'm not overconfident, but we have played Texas very well the past few years. We could make some waves.
Hmm. It's almost like we should consider guarding #83. Just a thought...
@wissox he was being mentioned last season until the injury.
@wissox Disrespectful idiots. But I mean that in the nicest possible way.
Nope. The Heisman people want to see both. That's how it was when I won mine, anyway 🙄
117 yds passing won't have JD in any Heisman talks.
@wissox that's the smart thing to do - unless you run it back for 6
I'm more than a little ticked that BYU can throw 20, 30, 40 yards downfield at will.
My boss being on vacation. A K-State loss in any sport. Pizza. 70's music. Muscle cars.
@FarmerJayhawk my son and I went to the KU home opener. I was shocked and impressed that there was a flyover! I don't know what kind of jets they were - F35's, F-18's? I remember thinking what the F?
@wissox Not to be that guy, but we kinda beat ourselves in the Arkansas game. I won't go into detail because I don't want to embarrass anyone - but we all know.
I think BYU is probably a little better than Nevada, so I'll say we win 75-2.
@dylans there was one big bright point - when the game ended.
Whew! Good night boys and girls!
@wissox really good compared to the last 30 years?
Can we suit up Mizzou's kicker?
I don't stay up this late on New Year's Eve
@stoptheflop Lol
We'll find a way to get screwed
@DanR text fast to 312345
A friend told me
@stoptheflop and no stupid penalties
This is embarrassing 😳
Happy
@wissox you're much nicer than I am. I was going to say stupid. Or something like that....
Hopefully it will take more than 3 plays for Nevada to score....
