skewed because we've had 29 more attempts than the next closest team (due to playing an extra game). we also haven't played nebraska yet.

also, just held the passing juggernaut of ku to its fewest points since 2005 against OU (disregarding their game against ut last year in which they scored 7).

tt is also an anomaly.

efficiency and ypg are not skewed because of number of games.

    Angry KSU Fan.
The secondary has been good at preventing the big play, but we've had corners biting big on play action and playing extremely soft coverage in the middle.  That soft coverage is what allowed OU to convert 1st and 45 or whatever disgusting number that was.  Good quarterbacks can take advantage of it, especially if they have time to get through all of their progressions.  If our linebackers were a threat in pass coverage that would help, but they're just not.

They have been very good in run support, and improved in tackling from last year.

boom.

the point is to show that we're 4-2 with two sophs, two juniors and a frosh leading the way in the secondary. they'll get better, too.

coach em up, bill.

A linebacker not tackling a wide receiver is what have them a 1st down on 1st and 45. We get a stop or to there we might win

    The very best.
great topic ELLTOPAY! I agree! We ARE AMAZING AND NOTHING IS GOING TO STOP US!
It is a tragedy because now, we have at least an extra month without Cat football until next year. I hate wasting my life away but I can hardly wait until next year.

I though Harrison was a Senior????

Our secondary is very inconsistent, but I like our 3 safeties, they're really good.
