Title: First 5 drives from last Saturday ....
Post by: PowercatPosse on October 08, 2007, 06:28:36 PM
no need to look any farther than that.  I agree that letting ku score the late TD in the 2nd quarter was the biggest momentum changer and a HUGE difference, but the first 5 drives for both schools looked like this ....

I looked up with about 13 to play in the 2nd quarter and we had the edge in yards 148 to 38.  Both teams had 5 drives and ku was getting to start their 6th.

Ksu 1st drive --- Starts at the ku 46.  We complete a 13 yd pass to the ku 33, only to have it called back by a personal foul.  So 1st and 25 and the drive stalls

Ksu 2nd drive --- TD
Ksu 3rd drive --- missed FG

Ksu 4th drive --- On 2nd and 10 form the Ksu 34, we got a questionable personal foul (slap to the head) and it pushed it back to 2nd and 25 instead of being a makable 3rd and 4.  Drive stalled

Ksu 5th drive ----  Great starting position and we move it to the ku 41.  2nd and 10 we get a 13 yd run called back by a holding call.  Back judge made the call and he was 20-25 yds off of the line of scrimmage, and announcers even said they did not think it was a hold.  So instead of 1st and 10, it ends up being 2nd and 20. Drive stalls

We killed ourselves not taking advantage of those first 5 drives and the fact that ku only got 38 yds on their 5 drives and gave us great starting position.   Damn freaking penalites (even if 2 of them were pretty ticky tacky).    We needed points on 3 of those 5 and we only got points on 1 of those first 5 drives

It was Freeman's fault that we didn't take a commanding lead early in the game.

That's what all the ku fans tell me.

They don't know crap. We got hosed a bit, but it was also our fault for missing that field goal. frack that hurt.
