GAME QUOTES

Jim Grobe on KU's defense...
“I like the way their defense chases the football. They fly around and get a lot of people to the ball. They play really, really hard defensively. As an older football coach, you know, the one thing you like is that when you watch games is to watch the teams that play with a lot of energy and enthusiasm and that's what I see from them on both sides of the ball. They are very aggressive. I like to Blitz and bring pressure and and mixed things up so I like their scheme. They're fundamentally coach really well, you can tell that there is a very fundamentally sound defense."

Seth Russell on improvements he has seen in Kansas...
“They are definitely a different ball team than last year, for sure. On film they fly around and do a lot of good things on defense. We just have to focus on what we do, play Baylor football. The coaches are going to have a good scheme going into it, and as long as we execute we will be OK.”

Two of the changes I was talking about are on display this week. Grayland Arnold is now the starter and Pat Levels is off the field.

Why is levels off? Thought he was playing well...but I don't have coaches eyes. Was it the Iowa st game?

Not being physical enough in run support.

The return guy for Kansas was originally an Ag commit, really highly rated. I got blasted for saying he wouldn't qualify. He didn't.

That was not where the ball was supposed to be. It faded to the outside too much.

We are 6 games in. There is no reason at all to try to run side to side on us. It's a waste of a down. No one else has done it. Kansas won't be first.

48 might have picked that off

Looks like Raaqoun Davis wants his spot on the field back from levels.

Kansas looks worse than advertised. Begs the question - how bad is TCU?

21-0 in the first quarter and I can't take a crack at Texas?

Awful pass. Cannon would have scored there

Tecklenburg took a shot to the ribs.

If I have to answer "Where's the fun" at taking a crack at Texas after the last year, then I probably can't help you much.

That was a 30 second drive for the offense.

Dude just hand the ball off. Kansas has given up all kinds of yards on the ground.

Legal but a shady play. Defender knocked him as hard as he could once he saw the ball get tipped.

Shock did look shaken up on that 3rd down play inside our own five. He hasn't been in on our last 2 offensive series.

It's like beating up the kid in a wheel chair and yelling at the bully down the road...see how strong I am!
