I didn't see Leonhart putting on a Baylor cap. Then again, they didn't show any postgame stuff & I didn't wait around to find out. I want to be in bed before 1 a.m.!

You could tell that player on the right couldn't wait to hear how Gundy responded

I guess that's one way to deal with it! I bet they don't have a big crowd.

UCF is not going well against Duke. Duke is outplaying them on offense & defense.

Just getting torched now… not a good look. Bunch of 3rd 4th stringer's embarrassing a fully healthy KU team

Kansas showed some good things early but they have made too many dumb mistakes & their defense cannot stop Arky consistently.

It looks like the current Big 12 will likely fall to 0-3.

Another TO. Yikes this one's about to get ugly. If Tech loses tonight and it's likely the B12 is gonna have a real uphill climb to not go 0-fer in bowl season

I didn't watch that much Arkansas football this year. Why are they in the top 5 for number of players in the transfer portal? The offense looks like it would be fun to play in. Is it because the DC left?
IowaBear

no idea but I'd say it's a good thing because if they had all their starters they would be up 40 already. They're manhandling KU. Getting rather embarrassing

Hopefully the 2nd half has a running clock. Only thing that will keep Arky from scoring every drive. This is hilariously bad football
whitetrash

Not sure how good Arky really is. KU looks totally unaccustomed to playing in a bowl, much like BU did in 2010 Texas Bowl after a 16 year layoff. Illinois wasn't that good, or at least not 38-14 good.

KU losing 6 of their last 7 probably didn't help prepare them

So much for the Big12 is the best conference top to bottom….
IowaBear

Only homers believed that. Conference is filled with mediocre teams this year. Two best teams are likely to get pummeled this weekend

Some of the matchups contributed to this. Kansas should be playing Missouri, Oklahoma should be playing Ole Miss or Air Force, etc.

Good point. Our new commissioner needs to help improve our brand by picking the best matchups instead of the allowing bowls to take our biggest brands to sell seats. Winning > losing with a sold out crowd!!

KU had the same problem we had. The schedule was back-end loaded. Once the losing started, it was hard to stop because of the upcoming opposition. KU was lucky to get their sixth win, and we beat a team we normally don't beat (OU) to get to six.

It will be interesting to see what happens with the Big 12 bowls the next time some contracts are up for review.

Also, Oklahoma State was down 5 starters due to the transfer portal for Wisconsin - including their starting QB (?), starting RB (Baylor), and best defensive player (USC). That's painful.

KU stopping the bleeding a little. If they can get a TD here this will at least look more respectable
boognish_bear
How long do you want to ignore this user?
TD would have looked better....but the KU FG makes it a two score game. Can they stop another Arky drive?
boognish_bear

Do or die drive coming up for KU

Holiday Bowl at the Padres baseball stadium....why didn't they play at SDSU's brand new football stadium?

Credit to KU for not totally rolling over. Looked like the game was going to totally get away from them....but they fought back enough to keep it interesting
