Offense tonight

[POWL]

uk's defense is terrible, I think we'll push them around in the running game.  Still worried about hitting the invisible wall at the 30 though

answer : TE release
.....you know it and i know it

It is frustrating how small our margin of error is on sustaining drives.  It seems like our ability to convert on third downs of over 5 yards is minimal.  I would like to see us throw it on first down more but I think its hard to when our offense needs almost all three downs to get ten yards.  I think we will move the ball ok tonight but I have little faith that we can hold them to less than four scores.

Its amazing how one horrible game colors the perceptions, but I can understand why.  

If you mean 4 total scores; perhaps, but if you mean 4 TDs, I don't see it.  We held much better offenses to less.  UCLA had 2 TDs and 3 FGs.  ISU had 1 TDs and 2 FGs.  CFU had 1 TD and 2 FGs.  Barring something stupid by us (multiple TOs for short fields, horrible special teams), there is little reason to believe KU will achieve more than any of those offenses against us.

The game is on the road.  And this bunch aint road warriors and haven't been for many years now.

As much as I want to buy the hype about a comfortable win, I'll believe it when I see it.  Even with the POWL in full effect, we need to overcome playing like crap on the road.

This is really the only thing that worries me, besides not having Smith.  Very legitimate concern, but I think we'll overcome it. 

Now in Waco on the other hand...

Yeah, not having our most legit wide receiver to go up and snare carsy's ducks also scares the ever living crap out of me as well.

I want to believe.  I just can't convince myself of it yet.

IMHO, its hard to make a whole lot from the recent road record, though I won't completely disregard it.  We played 4 of our first 6 games away from Manhattan last year, and we were clearly not in position to compete on the road at that point.  It wasn't until getting some confidence with the aTm and CU wins at home that we really started playing, and if we compete like we did in our final 2 road games @OU and @NU we will be fine tonight.  In many ways it will be all about how we recover from the debacle from last Thursday.  I'm really not factoring the way we struggled on the road under Prince, that's ancient history to me.

We are a much better team.

We are a much better team.

Well done.

Point goes to _FAN on this one.

[kso_FAN]

I will say, I did not anticipate Coffman playing THIS well. Still, the goEMAW pessimism did surprise me today.

[wetwillie]

Thanks for keeping us grounded _fan you fought the good fight this week

[AppleJack]

I wish I shared in this optimism. Our offense is complete dog crap. I would be happy with 20 points and hope KU shits the bed again.

i assumed  that the predictions for us to lose were only in response to beems attempted jedi mind trick of picking us to when. we needed to balance that out. good job guys.
