First off, someone in the World IT department needs to fix the link to the poll.

I've seen this idea thrown out elsewhere, but as the team lines up, the stadium should all yell K--------- and then as the kicker kicks off, everyone should yell U-------. That's the best idea I've heard thus far anyway.

Go Big Blue is certainly appropriate for KU although I think we should be able to come up with something else. Texas's cheer is "Texas Fight" that's divided up between sides of the stadium.

We're going to have to improve if we're going to defend our homefield. Reesing has made up for a lot of our shortcomings at this point. Special teams really have to pick it up. Need a little more out of the o-line. D-line needs to raise their play a notch, which will help the pass D. Last year's KU's team would demolish this one by 3 TDs right now.

I feel like we have some talent and you hope to see these guys improve throughout the season. If we can make some strides, we can still have a great year, but if we continue to play like we're playing right now, I doubt we're going to be very pleased at the end of the year.

We need to get the return game going. 119 is embarrassing. I'd be looking real hard at nearly wholesale changes. It's just hard to believe we used to be so good at the return game and now we're the worst in America.

"And having an NBA team 50 miles away, practicing and playing in a facility that KU will only play in once or twice a year helps KU recruiting exactly how?"

That's not too hard to figure out. If there was a NBA team in KC, the ties between that team and KU would be pretty tight. Players would have access to some of those NBA players and how it all works. They'd have opportunities to make extra connections with NBA folks. It's not very hard at all to see that it would be alluring to have a NBA team close.

However, with all that said, I still don't know why someone would want to play in obscurity in Conference USA. Play in a league where you're never going to get challenged. This one is a no-brainer, but Coach Cal seems to be more than holding his own. I mean the FedEx Forum or Allen Fieldhouse. You can play in one of the most historic arenas of all time or.....? You can play in front of one of the loudest and craziest crowds in big games......or? I don't get the dilemma. For me, Memphis would be a nice Plan B school if a KU type school didn't work out.

That whole all sports standing was flawed. Nevermind that football and basketball should have been waited higher. At a minimum, schools should have their points averaged per sport because it makes no sense to say that a school isn't any good if they don't field a particular sport.

The Anderson family is great! I wish he had more Jayhawks that would step up to the plate like they do to support the university!

Anyone that thinks KU can't catch NU or OU financially is an idiot. We're not very far behind right now. Our bball program generates so much cash that it gives KU a huge advantage. Now that KU's starting to generate some demand for football, the amount of revenue we're going to achieve there is going to shoot up. KU has a tremendous opportunity in football given our population base, which is larger than either NU or OU.

Wow! Way to go KU fans! I wonder if the CU game will sellout soon?

The offensive line is fine. We were playing on the road with a silent snap count. The defense can get a jump on the offense on the road. A couple of times Selvie was by Spikes before he even moved. That's why it's tough to win on the road. If that game is in Lawrence, KU wins going away, but USF got us. Congrats to them on a good win.
