Whew, a W is a W, I guess. Lots to work on. Jeez, offense has to be able to get a first down that last series.

KU needs a score here. Maybe a 99 yd drive that takes 9 min?
My god I'm sick of these FGs. FGs instead of TDs equates to an L
KU receivers are making nice snags
There you go defense; nice stop
UCF gets the first possession; defense needs to get a stop
This game is a must win for a chance at a bowl.
Oh my, I thought KU would be ready to play after last week's loss. So sad
OK new KU strategy, start out behind, but win in the last 2 min.
Failed first drive. Come on defense
@FarmerJayhawk The short pass to begin the drive with only 17 seconds left hurt. But, that may have been on the QB, not Andy.
Upset Watch: Florida has a 9 pt lead over Turncoat Texas almost at the end of 3Q. 22 to 14.
Well let's start with a game thread so the several of us still following KU football may converse. KU has the much better offense with 1336 yds passing and 917 rushing vs. UCF's 938 passing and 812 rushing. JD has 16 passing TDs with just 2 INTs and a rushing TD. UCF's QB Jackson has just 3 TDs and 1 INT. Points per game are surprisingly close: KU 36.6 UCF 34.8. I don't know where UCF's scoring comes from but they score way more rushing TDs than passing. Anyway, I sure hope KU wins this came convincingly; otherwise, I may be the only person on this website still following them next week, especially with everyone watching Bill killing it.
Cincinnati football-the dream killers. Down goes undefeated IState. Still 6 min left, but I'm calling it. Still rooting for Baylor though.
@kjayhawks Cinci 24-7 and barely in the 2nd Q
How's everyone feeling: can the defense stop the TD in the next 1:45?
@patoh3 Marshall isn't as fast as I had hoped. Should have made that corner and scored
I've always had this game as a must win if KU is to get to a bowl game.
Different year; same story
Stupid defense wasted our great start. Now the offense must score on every series.
Come on defense. Stop this second series
call some passes for Ballard; that's not piling on
Can we please see some of the reserves?
Nice drive.
No reason in hell for JD to be running.
There's the ground game. Keep that going
Dial up that blitz. Nice start D
wow, way to start the 2nd half. Wow
Concerning: Williams 10/31 yds; Hishaw 2/9yds. JD by far the leading rusher 61yds.
FWIW, WV has more passing yards than KU: 119-111
Now a couple of shots into the end zone. Or , just short hop a 10 yd pass. Jeez
Man that run was all Jalen
Nice stop D
Finally TD
Wow what a bad series. Is Jeff Grimes back?
Nice one on one tackle
JD missed another receiver.
@wissox Cost us an important first down
KU defense held WV to 21 yds passing and 15 yds passing in the first Q.
Well at least the defense is playing well.
@wissox Jalen just can't pass accurately when he's moving
Alright, stopped them again. Now come on offense
Another D stop. Way to start the game
Fast TD. Nice
3 and out baby. Nice start
Wow, IState struggling against Ark State; tied 9-9 at the half. unranked Arkansas beat Ark St 56-14 last week
I'm ready to sign up for the Youtube free trial and then cancel the subscription soon after the game. I wonder how many Chiefs fans will be scrambling to find the game Friday night.
Lawrence (and therefore KU by association) had a remarkable role in the termination of the abomination and horror that was American slavery. An early attempt at a Kansas constitution came out of Lecompton and included the right to own slaves. This proposal wasn't ratified by Congress. Anti-slavery residents in Lawrence and Kansas City then proposed a constitution that didn't include the right to own slaves, the Wyndotte Constitution which led to Kansas's admission as a state, a free state. Our admission tipped the number of anti-slavery votes in Congress in favor of abolition. Thereafter, South Carolina and other states attempted to secede from the union. To fight to become a free state, Lawrence residents campaigned for anti-slavery supporters, many from Illinois to come to Lawrence to live and boost the number of voters in favor of a free state. It's too early in the morning to look up more of the actual history, but it is truly fascinating how Lawrence residents in 1858-1860 fought to become a free state, which led to Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation. And yes, Missouri slavers fought Kansans the whole way.
Maybe Fresno State's big win over Georgia Southern helps KU in the polls. I thought Fresno and Warner at QB looked pretty good when KU played them. I was disappointed with KU's play against Wagner. But, it was Wagner, so KU's players probably didn't care either.
Well, well, well, NDakota ahead of KState at the half.
