Hey the season isn't over yet.. I am surprised as anybody else..Did coach Gill come alive finally on the sideline to let the team know he wants some results. Like and others have said,,there is no reason for this team to lose they way they have, because the talent is better than what has been shown in it's loses.

Right, 3-9. But, the Hawks needed this and hopefully, Turner and the gang can use the fourth quarter as an example of how to play for the entire 60 minutes. Nice win but let's build from this.
Rock Chalk.

I posted earlier this week, "Let's kick CU in the balls on the way out the door of the Big XII." Wow. I'd hate to be CU's testicles right now.

Hawkins with a deep throw, and Anthony Davis interferes with the receiver. That'll cost KU 15 yards.

The two weekends I decided not to come in town for the Hawks games they pull off shocking home wins...
