This game will come down to a few things: whether JTT plays, how the game is officiated, and how much progress we've made as far as getting into game shape. One thing that really stands out to me is Kansas lack of depth from a scoring standpoint. If JTT plays we have a HUGE bench advantage. Also I think this is a game where we see Teague and Mayer have monster games just a hunch. Can't wait to watch them in person tomm! Go Bears!
