Honestly if the fumble on the first drive bounce to us and if we could have broke up the pass before half this game would be different. But the at didn’t happen

Unfortunately both of our lines are getting outplayed and until our scoring drive are WRs we’re non existent.

Our biggest issue on defense is our LBs need someone to help the Dline and stop the run and have an athletic pursuit of the qb
We used up our miracle against Toledo unfortunately

May be time to try some of the young linemen - on both sides - because the current two deep is just not getting the job done. Where is Jacas? I thought we were ready to play with the best of them in the trenches but we have been dominated by Toledo and Kansas.

I’m really hoping Aaron Henry just doesn’t understand mobile quarterbacks. To be fair, these are probably 2 of the top 5 runners in the nation.

But this is really bad. Really, really bad.
KU with Daniels is a good team that almost won the Big 12 last year. Once he got injured their season got derailed. Are they as good as PSU OSU or scUM. I don’t know

The Big 12 normally doesn’t play good defense but their offenses are off the chart.

KU is showing what energy their crowd can pump into their team and they have so much football tradition

Honestly except for JJ McCarthy had we play any QB who was useful running last season.

This is one of those game were you doubt the quality of the entire conference.

Ok, so Daniels looks otherworldly.

I’m just not knowledgeable enough about football to suggest how we might have schemed or executed differently to somehow slow him down.

From the looks of it, neither is Henry.

Are the coaches discussing the dumb penalties, shoving people after a play, getting in people's faces after a play (IW got away with that one)? The old school coaches would not stand for this, and grab a kid by the jersey when it happened, and they would NEVER do it again. Is this not a thing anymore for coaches? Why are they just letting them act like that?

Here we go. Best comeback of all time! Who is ready!

We have to recruit hard some CB’s in the offseason. Either that or our CB’s are just too inexperienced and haven’t caught up to the quickness of the game yet.

I really don’t get all the chirping we’re doing, just make a play and get back to the huddle.

Oregon is going to run our conference soon...
Not sure what the Illini will have to say about the football competition or where and how the new teams will be allotted, but USC, UCLA, and Washington sure don't expect to give up anything to Oregon. Winning a basketball title should be a big deal though and the football titles will no longer be divided up between two teams.
