Illinois defense finally waking up and likely going to get its offense the ball in good position.
First punt of the season for Kansas

What a back breaker, 3rd and 5 converted for 25 out of their own endzone and then ends up being a 94yd drive for a TD. 21-0 Kansas
Man I’m scared for Bret Bielema. Team’s down by a ton AND the dude’s got the same body profile as the Philly Phanatic. Not great
And, with a 40 second drive, KU is knocking on the door again.
Update: they scored.

What an answer by Kansas to score with only 41 secs left in the half. 4 plays 74yds. Ripped away all the momentum Illinois had. 28-7 Kansas
This last Kansas TD to go up 28-7 with 5 seconds left in the half... a Kansas player grabbed, twisted and threw down a defender right where teh ball went.. no call. Very visible. Illinois D looks like crap... well, their pass coverage.
Kansas looks really good. Daniels is a difference-maker - just shows how important a great QB is.
The backup Jason Bean who played last week when Daniels was out and a good part of last year too when Daniels was hurt is a solid qb too.
Actually , if both programs play as well as I think they are
the Kansas - KSU rivalry game at the end of year should be a great one.
I really like Klieman the KSU HC.
Kansas and KSU made great choices when they hired their HCs
Arkansas fans probably are enjoying this Kansas -Illinois game 😀
Five B1G teams who are not as good as the media portray:
Illinois- one year wonder
Purdue- a below-average team that got by with a good coach. Not anymore!
Michigan State-I told you "Slick" Tucker can't coach
Indiana- gets the benefit of the doubt because of Rutgers. Ignorant B1G media
Northwestern- the fact the media thought they were better than Rutgers, and some still think this.

Illinois needed that TO…it’s already bleak but that would be all she wrote if they scored another TD
ADs don’t seem eager to hire from the lower levels but there’s something to be said when you can win at lower programs all along the way
I always says it’s a coach’s job to find a way to make it work. Don’t complain about the limitations of the job, find a way. Well when you coach at lower levels you have no choice but to find a way to do it with less.
Leipold, Klieman, Kelly, Clawson, DeBoer all won at lower levels and some kept climbing up the ladder rung by rung while winning at each stop. It’s not a bad pool to choose from when you have that track record. Probably even less risky than other alternative career paths.
The man can coach, but the problem starts with the people of NJ. Leipold would face similar issues to Ash even though he likely wouldn't trash NJ. I'm sure plenty of NJ HS coaches would resist him since he's an outsider. Those same coaches would say he's not recruiting enough local kids when it's the local HS coaches are pushing them to other Power 5 schools.
Recruit elsewhere then. If he can recruit solid contributing recruits to Kansas, he can recruit them to anywhere. Portal is there too to use and help supplement.
If any coach does well eventually others will jump on board.
Oh man what a run for the TD. Slight bit of life but took a big hit on the 2pt conversion.
I don’t think that’s a flag worthy play. Looked clean to me, hard hit but clean.
I don’t agree with that call. I think he turned his head enough and was a little bit of the side of the helmet and the shoulder. I don’t think he was defenseless either, he just got rid of the ball.

Indiana up 38-7 with under 3 minutes left in the game and they are passing almost every down.
Much different program than RU

If you're up 38-7 in the 4th, run or pass, I'd be giving 2nd team players some PT so they at least have some experience in case of injuries.
If that's the score of the Wagner game, we'll be in big trouble. Hopefully this means another down year for IU.
